Columbus didn't personally oversee the destruction of 10-20% of the population either, unless you have sources to prove your bogus claims of genocide otherwise. Do you? It was obviously genocidal. I don't know the exact numbers (those percentages were based on your own numbers - if you think 80-90% died of disease, what do you think the other up to 20% died of, if the assumption was not Columbus killing them? did Columbus just hug them too hard for gracefully giving their land to him voluntarily?), but they were explicitly targeted and also killed and enslaved based on their race. Others have already shown you other quotes from Columbus' diary and you embarrassingly rationalize the behavior. <cite>wah_wah_wah posted [p:885758888] in L.A. Votes...
