There's quite a bit of evidence that the Caribs were cannibals. In Columbus' accounts, the New World (actually the modern-day Bahamas) was divided between two main populations: the gentle Arawak people, whom Columbus dubbed "the best people in the world," and the fearsome Caniba, who were marauding cannibals. (The English word "cannibal" actually derives from "Caniba," aka, Caribs, a name Columbus reportedly learned from the Arawaks.)

What????

Columbus captured and enslaved the indigenous peoples. There was no cannibalism or human sacrifice in the Bahamas, he forced his superstition on them on pain of terrible tortures and death. Lavatories were bottom of his priorities.

Columbus was a liar who got lost. Not someone I would trust.

All documented.
 
Subject: The Military

Trey Gowdy , South Carolina Congressman, recently responded to a reporter
about the military in response to a question from a CNN reporter about the
DoD ban of transgenders from joining the U.S. armed forces. As Trey
typically does so very well, he nailed it rather succinctly.

Question: How can President Trump claim to represent all U.S citizens,
regardless of sexual orientation, when he banned transgenders from joining
the military? Isn't that discrimination?

Trey Gowdy's Response: " Nobody has a right to serve in the Military.
Nobody! What makes you people think the Military is an equal opportunity
employer? It is very far from it - and for good reasons - let me cite a
few."

"The Military uses prejudice regularly and consistently to deny citizens
from joining for being too old or too young, too fat or too skinny, too tall
or too short. Citizens are denied for having flat feet, or for missing or
additional fingers." he went on to explain: "By the way, poor eyesight will
disqualify you, as well as bad teeth. Malnourished? Drug addiction? Bad
back? Criminal history? Low IQ? Anxiety? Phobias? Hearing damage? Six
arms? Hear voices in your head? Self-identification as a Unicorn? Need a
special access ramp for your wheelchair?"

"Can't run the required course in the required time? Can't do the
required number of push-ups? Not really a morning person? and refuse to get
out of bed before noon? All can be legitimate reasons for denial"

"The Military has one job: Winning War. Anything else is a distraction
and a liability. Did someone just scream? That isn't Fair? War is VERY
unfair, there are no exceptions made for being special or challenged or
socially wonderful"

"YOU must change yourself to meet Military standards and not the other way
around."

"I say again: You don't change the Military - you must change yourself.
The Military is not about being fair, it is about taking advantage of others
and about winning.

The Military doesn't need to accommodate anyone with special issues. The
Military needs to Win Wars and keep our Country safe - PERIOD!"

"If any of your personal issues are a liability that detract from readiness
or lethality... Thank you for applying and good luck in future endeavors."

"...any other questions?"
