The same guys who still want this Monday off by any name.

My phone calendar automatically has that tagged on it today.

It is an odd pairing when thinking about it.

Whats a holiday or weekend?...says retired folks.

It's not a pairing.  It's a movement against Columbus, his (and subsequent explorers) treatment of indigenous people.  Saying much more probably belongs in another thread.

Yeah, wrong category to have a meaningful discussion.

This would probably be best discussed in the Full Throttle section, as it involves politics and culture clash. And politics.
