Wow, some liberal wing nut at Brown found out that Native Americans had incurred harm at the hands of Christopher Columbus (so she claims) and now we have to change the holiday! I don’t think that Columbus was the only settler that encountered Native Americans in the early days and I dare say he wasn’t the only one to cause them harm either.

“Fall Weekend” is short for “The Fall Of Credibility At Brown Weekend”.

Don’t like the holidays that the USA have… Then maybe you should move to another country…

It could be renamed LOST ITALIAN WEEKEND.  More attention should be paid to the impact this idiot’s arrival had the the Native people he started on the long path to ruin.

But, this is RI and we all know the gumbas rule.
