I saw it, plus the comments.
It isn't Cristoforo I'm fan of; I'm a fan of his personal discovery
of the West, which led to European knowledge that it was here, which
led to European migration to the New World, which led to
colonialists who held Judeo-Christian values and knew what
governmental failures to avoid because they fled from them, which
led to the founding of the United States of America, where I'm from.
That's my heritage. Usually when we see people celebrating their
heritage, they are treated with a great deal of deference and
respect.
For some reason when I want to celebrate my American heritage,
certain people (always on the political left) wish to show
disrespect to my traditional celebratio, my celebration of who I am.
