Until yesterday, I was with you on this. It bugged me that people were judging him by today's standards. Plus, all of us are still living in and supporting the society we condemn him for starting, and pretty much none of us are doing anything to improve that stuff. So kind of hypocritical to complain and throw him under the bus.
But then I read Jeff Jacoby's column on why he's been wrong about defending Columbus. Jacoby is the Globe's conservative columnist. I know he's not conservative enough for some here, but it's a good read and new objective information
