And celebrating a guy who never really discovered America isn't important either. I'd rather make money than make a mockery with this stupid holiday.

It’s also a known fact that he Christopher Columbus was a murderer and a rapist. I think it’s insane that we still celebrate this inane holiday. Amerigo Vaspucci was the one that discovered America, not Columbus.

Give Columbus a break. He can't help that he has his own holiday. To his credit he did sail here four times during a time when sea travel was trecherous at best. Although when he died he still continued to believe that he had made his way to the East Indies. In 1498 he did touch the continent of South America in today's Venezuela. In 1499 Amerigo Vespucci visited the coast of modern day Guyana and believed that what he had found was not Asia. But Leif Ericson is widely credited as the first European to visit what would become America. There is your history lesson for the day. Not that it has anything to do with stocks. GLTA!
