    An interesting argument although he didn't think he was in his own homeland just in the wrong person's homeland who he intended to exploit. It would be more apt if Guyger was planning on going to someone else's house to rob them but ended up in Botham Jean's by mistake.

    If She went to the Apartment, then enslaved the owners and wrote about what valuable servants they would be, beat the former owners of the apartment if She thought they were holding out gold and money from her because she got a percentage, then yes, it would be the same.

    This reads like one of those reflections you have pop up in your head when smoking a blunt and think is an insightful thought worth sharing, but when you sober up are like, "What the **** was I thinking?"

    Remember that time detective Columbus walked into some Mexican guy's home and held him hostage at gunpoint demanding a room full of gold? Oh wait... that was officer Cortes and civil forfeiture.

    That looked like an actual argument as opposed to "think about it"

    Just get irritated with people on Facebook repeating the same ish every year on Columbus Day as if Congress is gonna revoke the holiday.

    My favorite is he didn't even know where he was as if they figured that out on their own and it wasn't emphasised in history class

    I get amused at how possessive Italian-Americans are of Columbus Day, as if telling the truth about him is in some way denigrating them or their history and contributions to the US.
