Only an Italian could take credit for discovering a land inhabited by millions of people Right, because it's no big accomplishment to figure out that the world was round (not flat as everyone else on the planet thought), decide to make the ulimate journey to try and find a new route to India by going the opposite way, dare to make a voyage where people actually thought he would fall off the edge of the earth, make it to a new continent after months on the sea, and, yes, discover an entire new world. He was a genius, adventurer, hero no matter what the liberal looney left wants us to believe. The vikings found it first. |

Please, regale us with the accomplishments of your wonderful ethnicity.  Yeah, the Italians/Romans only created civilization, aqueducts, roads, cities, spread their language throughout Europe, perfected military strategy, weapons, cement, art, culture, conquered the entire f'in know world, unlocked the secrets of the universe, the Renaissance, etc etc. and also discovered the new fucking world - America. Not bad for a day's work. While the rest of Europe was living in mother fucking caves until we civilized your worthless asses. You're welcome. Italians had some good years for sure. But then after their own corruption, (Italian..corruption...no way!) over expansion, and their slave labor drying up, they were trampled by barbarians. But they did bring us gravy. |

If you knew anything you would understand that we are still living in a civilization that was built by the Romans - so much of the basis of our infrastructure, laws, military organization, language were created by them. And yes, definitely food too. it's sauce dumbo, gravy is brown and goes on mashed potatoes. Stick to gifilta (spl?) fish buddy. Gross. Don't know how you got so fat eating that crap. |

Let's take a shit in a section of colon, boil it to an internal temp of 200 degrees and serve it with chips. I have 9 different versions of sauce/gravy that's better than anything any Scot could make. _ |

He was a genius, adventurer, hero no matter what the liberal looney left wants us to believe. Almost nobody thought the world was flat back then. The idea for a spherical earth started in 330 BC by the Greeks. By the time Columbus was around it was well known. He just had no idea how big the earth/oceans were. The only people saying they believed the earth was flat are the dumbasses repeating what they learned in the 3rd grade. Was the cold war even in the last history book you read? |
