I am glad white western christians discovered and colonized America before somebody else did. Buts thats just me.

Me too.

BTW, I do not see where Columbus could be considered a mass murderer without revisionist History.

I'm glad I'm here too.

Columbus was recognized as a murderer in his own time. He wrote that the Taino are some of the greatest people in the world, and would make slaves. When they failed to collect the required amount of gold, he'd have their hands cut off. He'd go raiding for slaves. He brutally administered Hayti. Before you say we should judge him by the standards of his time (moral relativism, if you ask me) remember he was brought back to Spain in chains because of this kind of stuff and the Dominican Republic is so-named because a Dominican Friar spoke-out against the Spanish slaughter. All there in the original documents. His rosey image is the revisionism

[television is just wrong]

The revisionists consider white people evil and all other ethnicities good.
