Columbus Day Tweets

@GaryJBusey: “Hide your kids, hide your wife, and hide your husband too. ‘Cause Christopher Columbus is raping everbody out here.” – 1492 tweet

@TWlTTERWHALE: Happy Christopher Columbus Day. Now go out and discover something that was already discovered.

@DeathStarPR: Christopher Columbus: discovered nothing, kidnapped, enslaved & murdered natives & gets a national holiday honoring him? Well played, sir.

@ish: I don’t have a Christopher Columbus joke. So I’m just going to take someone else’s, and say I discovered it.

Happy Dia De La Raza!
