  2. It's not ok to treat people like slave because it's not kind and you are not suppose to force people like "if you are not going to be a slave I will kill you." If you say that they will want to be a slave because the don't want to die, they want to stay.That's not ok because it's not forced plus it's their own choice. And before you say I will kill think if you were the person who was treated like that how would you feel. It would definitely feel bad because you want to be a slave and don't want to be forced or killed by that person.

  3. Answer 1: Columbus is bad because he made the Indians his slaves.
    Answer 2: Columbus perspectives is wrong because he might think of a bad nightmare in one night.
    Answer 3: It's not OK to capture people and sold them as slaves because it's a bad thing to do with people.
    Answer 4: He's doing this because he wants all the money.

  6. I think Columbus is very mean and also selfish because he didn't give freedom to the indians and he was selfish about having money. ANSWER 1:I Think it's not good to people. They need live as they want. We should care about them. Or that sounds to me like Christopher Columbus is bulliying. And that's disrespectful,I Hope that Columbus dosen't do that again. I feel poor to the indians who got caught by selfish and mean CHRISTOPER COLUMBUS. And also I learned that CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS caught the indians didn't give freedom and stole money as he was very selfish. I think Columbus needed a lesson of being kind. Also I think CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS has to think before he does something and it could be dangerous to indians he could of get killed. For me someone said I'm going to kill you I would be so scared. I think for the indians they felt the same thing. By HYUNMIN BAE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  9. I thought columbus will get by the money he stole from indians. Even I think he is a awesome explorer and a risk-taker I also think he should be kind to them. And the indians are poor than Columbus. This video is a wonderful biography for Columbus. I wish he helped the indians-Hyun Min
