I honor Columbus Day every year!.... If you bother reading the poignant NYPost article I put up, I think it speaks for itself in defense of Columbus (and all those of his time and era). It is often not fair to judge history's events, or yesteryears people and their mentality from an time period hundreds of years ago by the standards of today.

If we were in their shoes, living in those times and facing what they faced, we might well think as they did. It was the "norm" of that era.

But no sense in debating the issue. You have every right to think as you wish. So do I. I'm not here to convince anyone of anything.

I for one, thoroughly enjoy the holiday every year. And for me it will always be Cristoforo Columbo Day! .... not some makeshift, make believe holiday to appease those who wanna be "politically correct!"

Have a nice day!

PS: I'll lay my bottom dollar that the powers that be will never take Columbus Day off the calendar. Or change it for that matter...it is too iconic, to too many people!
