How can we continue to celebrate a man who didn't covered anything... He represents a history were the Native American were colonist and genocide was the practice.. The Native people of the Caribbean were enslaved, murder and eliminated as socities...Is this something to celebrate. ..No...The world doesnt celebrate Adolf Hilter and his Germany.. why should we celebrate the legacy Coliumbus sheppard..

If the purpose of this is to encourage tourism and economic development I suggest a tribute to Puerto Rico born El Capitán Correa and the defense of Arecibo or the Cacique Xamaica Arasibo for which the town was named or a tribute to la Cueva del Indio. Perhaps a Taino holding a telescope to tie in the Observatory? Even a 295 ft. statue of Myrta Silva would be better. We know too much to create an homage to a false symbol of discovery.

Colombus is not a figure of the discoverment of America because the indians already live there an he abuse of them to exploit the rich gold found in america

Esto es una aberración. Se dice que Colón ni tan siquiera pisó Puerto Rico. Además Colón no descubrió a America, America ya estaba descubierta! Puerto Rico tenía habitantes quienes fueron exterminados por los de Colón!! Cómo podemos seguir celebrando esta figura en el 2015 cuando ya esto se cae de la

Completamente ridiculo hacer homenaje a un hombre que jugó un papel en el comienzo del genocidio en Las Américas.

fue un ladrón, asesino de taínos, que no "descubrió" a PR sino que se tropezó con el en su viaje

Due to the present economic crisis in the island it would be ridiculous to spend money on assembling this statue.

Representa la tiranía de la conquista española. Violación de los derechos naturales de nuestros humildes indios.
