Today, many people throughout the Americas celebrate "The Day of the Hispanic Race" (Dia de la Raza) in commemoration of Christopher Columbus bringing the Spanish language and culture to the Western Hemisphere. I would like to recognize all the contributions Hispanics have contributed to our culture. Unfortunately, the Left has forbidden us from doing so because liberals are xenoglossophobic, zenophobic, and racist, and believe all you Spanish speakers and descendants don't deserve a holiday. Christopher Columbus was a bad person for bringing Hispanics to America. Your Spanish Ancestors may have killed your Indiginous ancestors. You shouldn't have come to the Western Hemishpere illegally, but you are welcome to come to the United States illegally if you'd like.

Chris had no idea where he was, ran his ship aground on a sandbar, pretended he had "found" something, named it for what he had claimed he was going to find, introduced syphillis, and did it all on somebody else's dime and lied to her about the whole affair. Obviously he was a republican.

Last time I checked Hispanic wasn't a race. There are white Hispanics, Black Hispanics, Brown Hispanics. Hispanic is a word made up by the U.S. Government for census purposes nothing else.
