The colonization of America

From Encyclopedia Dramatica

Jump to: navigation, search

Some time ago the Benevolent Columbus stumbled upon a backwater continent while searching for spice. When word got back to Europe that there were poor natives living in a faraway land the Europeans selflessly took it upon their shoulders to help spread peace, happiness, and Christianity to the primitives. The Indians had too much gold, so the civilized countries helped them out by taking some of that useless gold off their hands. The Indians were forever grateful for the assistance they received, and now enjoy a booming casino business as well as cheap cigarettes.

[edit] An Alternate View

Even though at least 100 million Indians have been killed since Columbus took his boat to India, this wasn't an act of terror because terrorism was invented 6 years ago. Freedom — the word and everything, though — was invented (and ©, ®, , patented — too) at that time.
