Don't really want to do the same trick or treat Halloweens event again and again. Feels like there is a war on Columbus Day even in Japan now. Also, if we celebrate Lunar New Year which is a Japanese/Korean/Chinese holiday, why can't we celebrate July 4th?
Hmmm... Although I don't have a problem with you voicing your opinion, You don't have much of a grasp on what Columbus was. He was strictly an explorer, and was slandered by the La Leyenda Negra. He actually sought to treat the natives with respect and restrain mistreatment against them, and was even a victim of a bigoted campaign against him by the Ku Klux Klan in the 1920s, because he was Catholic, Italian and sailed under the Spanish flag.

Columbus was so altruistic and loyal in his faith that a catholic fraternity by the name of "Knights of Columbus" that host fundraisers, altruistic events, food drives, blood drives, etc, was formed on his behalf, and still operate to this day.


If you're going to slander Christopher Columbus, don't fall for archaic anti-spanish propaganda. If you're trolling, 7/10 got me to respond.
