I hope this is a true petition for getting rid of Columbus Day, renaming Native or Indigenous Peoples Day. Columbus wasn't ever on North America, and where he did land hated him, so it is ridiculous!

Public school lies to American kids.
I had to leave school before I learned the whole truth of how this country was founded, the genocide of the native people, and now we see the result of the Whites taking over this land; the pollution the fracking the digging the drilling goes on to get every natural drop of gas and oil out of the Earth.
this is the result of Columbus,
George Washington, etc
Shame on us to support such evil people.

Columbus was a child sex trafficker, murderer, and torturer. We shouldn't celebrate this jerk in any way.

Columbus DID NOT DISCOVER The USA! Why should he be honored anymore. Give the day of celebration to Native Americans or even the Vikings... Since they WERE HERE !ST. We all know it is true so why do we celebrate Columbus any longer. It's ridiculous. Please Remove Columbus day from US Calendar as national holiday. Thank you.

A country that regards a man such as Columbus highly, a man who was not even the first to discover the new world, a man who participated in human trafficking, a man who murdered innocents, a man nowadays would be charged with countless violations of basic human rights, a man the defines a monster, is not a country I want myself nor future generations to live under.

This holiday is a disgrace and reflects the ignorance of the terrible enslavement and genocide of one of the most beautiful people to ever walk the earth. We should no more celebrate Columbus then we should Hitler. End this now and honor the memory of the victims.

Christopher Columbus behaved like one of the worst, most ruthless blood-thirsty war criminals in the hisotry of humanity.
His genocide, theft, and countless other heinous crimes must not be supported, celebrated, nor glamourized. These actions are grave sins against GOD.

The fact that we name a holiday after the Hitler of 1492 is a detriment to truth and honor

I'm part Native American. Until this so called Holiday is removed, everyone that is not Native American or part Native American, Will be banned from this country. My people have suffered enough. Now the only Presidents that we get from now on will be Native Americans. That's it.
Columbus Day is a Hate Crime Holiday.
