As a person of Irish and German immigrants that came to America, I am offended.
How about how the Irish were treated when they came here?
And how about being categorized as a Nazi because of my German roots?
This is a “trigger” for many Irishman and Germans (I am sure of this).
We should have recognition to the Irish and Germans who had to be harassed and degraded by the Europeans here in America!

DOES ANYONE HEAR HOW STUPID THIS SOUNDS? It is exactly how these clueless kids sound trying to replace recognizing Christopher Columbus.
Listen, I have no problem giving recognition to the Indians and their culture. And it is a shame that many people died (on both sides) during all of those conflicts. However, this is our history. You can’t wipe out history. You are supposed to learn it so as to not repeat it.
It is hard to fathom what the Nazis did to Jewish people but you don’t erase it because you don’t like it. How about what Britain did to the Irish during the potato famine?

When the hell did people become so weak minded that celebrating Christopher Columbus day “triggers” them??
