This is why I love the State. SMH. Damn, the irony is thick.

Columbus was a slave-trader, pillager, and plunderer. His victims were non-whites so we must be sensitive to that marginalized group (Indians). We won't honor him.

Instead, let's honor the folks who have carried out our nefarious agenda of killing brown-skinned innocents in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, etc.

Hysterical.
Most of the holidays the USA celebrates are stupid.

Team Blue and Team Red...megalomaniacs joined at the hip when ya get to the crux of the matter.

P.S. Ted K. wasn't an anarchist as he violated the non-aggression principle. That makes him like you and mtl1...one who condones and supports offensive force.
Nationalists are especially authoritarian. They're basically socially conservative socialists.

They should have ....... You don't let some dude off a boat with weapons come rape your daughters and wives and take your gold. Columbus was a horrible human being and his legacy is still here today. Genocide of a people. The fact that European Americans say "he was a man of his time" means nothing. Hitler was a man of his time as well but I don't see a holiday to him. What's the difference you ask???

Leftist drivel.

You have no proof, and like all Statists, your non-argument is based on emotion instead of facts.

It's common, general knowledge that without law enforcement, comes chaos and violence and the emergence of strongmen and gangs.

Now NW Europeans need less law enforcement than most. My theory is harsh punishment of criminals, avoiding consanguinity of matings and Darwinian survival conditions of old Europe bred much of the criminality out them.

Most homicides of Americans was not due to warfare. Illegal drug dealing kills more Americans every year than the Vietnam war did for example. And should no one have fought the communist?
