Columbus day approaches, but to the "politically correct" this is no
cause for celebration. On the contrary, they view the arrival of
Christopher Columbus in 1492 as an occasion to be mourned. They have
mourned, they have attacked, and they have intimidated schools across
the country into replacing Columbus Day celebrations with "ethnic
diversity" days.
The politically correct view is that Columbus did not discover
America, because people had lived here for thousands of years. Worse
yet, it's claimed, the main legacy of Columbus is death and destruction.
Columbus is routinely vilified as a symbol of slavery and genocide, and
the celebration of his arrival likened to a celebration of Hitler and
the Holocaust. The attacks on Columbus are ominous, because the actual
target is Western civilization. (link)
