Even if America and England has done bad things, it doesn't mean that other people's actions are less bad. Columbus was a cruel man, but there were a lot of cruel men back then.

Hero. He was Italian. so bite your tongues.
Found the new world.
America and England always say they are the good guys and look at all the bad stuff they have done. and are still doing.
Eat the Neocons.

evil freak, and the delivery of some of his lines celebrating his plundering in the film without the slightest sense of irony hint at that

He murdered the Tianos, took their gold, killed their children, so yes he is a monster.
Colon will go down in history as a bastard.

bump for October 11th. Columbus still stands as a brutal murderer.

This was actually a question we had to answer for my world history class. I would say anyone involved with rape, murder and slavery was a villain, but he wasn't really much different from most others of his time. Only judged by current moral standards does he seem worse.

the real christopher columbus was a human being that used the technology of the day to sail halfway around the world and who also managed to oversee the murder and rape of hundreds of other humans and sell countless others into slavery, all while making a nice profit for himself and earning administrative authority.
all in all not unlike many people alive today. hero or villain? well i would hate to be responsible for people's suffering on that large of a scale
