So would ending America be a longstanding overdue response to liberals.
I believe that every descendant of slavery should be allowed to receive 40 acres from the Confederacy.
Will anyone care to address the BILLIONS already handed to American minorities, over the last several decades?
I mean-that figure ought to be deducted from ANY resolution on ‘reparations’...FOR SURE! I think if we are honest, considering the billions already spent, there need be NO reparations at all. Call us even!!
Sen. Cory Booker said in a panel that the U.S. needs to address “persistent inequalities” experienced by African Americans by discussing reparations
No. You don’t inherit slavery. No one inherits the victim status of slavery. No one inherits guilt over slaveholding. No one acquires guilt over slaveholding by reason of having a skin color similar to that of former slaveholders.
As for reparations, shove it! I’ve already paid big time. I was refused a job that I wanted with a major corporation back in the 70’s with these exact words: “We’re not hiring now, but when we start hiring we’ll be hiring Blacks.” Exact quote.
Don’t tell me I have to pay.
Demonrats - the party of the Confederacy, Slavery, Jim Crow and all forms of Racism.
Booker said that the nation has “yet to truly acknowledge and grapple with the racism and white supremacy that tainted this country’s founding...
The rest of us gave up hundreds of thousands of lives to free them. It would be like The US paying reparations to Jews for the Nazi internment camps.
Reparations for slavery has been talked about among the lunatic fringe for years. Now it’s getting more serious discussion.
How the heck you administer such a program of paying reparations is beyond my pay grade, even if you accept the premise that somehow we owe reparations in the first place.
The irony of seeing multi-millionaire famous actor Danny Glover urging us to pay reparations, is surely lost on the radical types who push this sort of thing.
Should Danny Glover get reparations, when he has achieved the American dream in so many ways? Just one of many questions to ask, regarding who should get reparations.
And what of poor black people? We have instituted laws and policies such as affirmative action, to assist those who had been historically discriminated against. Is that not sufficient to help make up for the sins of the past?
What of poor whites, such as we see in Appalachia, who have been exploited in various ways? How do we compensate for their problems? Should we, or is that too far a reach, to look at reparations for poor whites, Mexican Americans, homosexuals, and other grievance groups?
So my relatives came here long after slavery ended, I’ve never discriminated against a black person.
None of them were slaves but they can accuse me of being responsible somehow and owing them money.
BUT I can’t say anything if they commit more crimes, don’t study in school, and are on drugs and welfare?
That’s about how this so called “conversation” works, isn’t it?
I prefer to say I don’t owe you a GD thing and get the hell out of my face, take care of your family like I take care of mine and leave me the hell alone.
The worst enemy that the Negro have is this white man that runs around here drooling at the mouth professing to love Negros and calling himself a liberal, and it is following these white liberals that has perpetuated problems that Negros have. If the Negro wasnt taken, tricked or deceived by the white liberal, then Negros would get together and solve our own problems. I only cite these things to show you that in America, the history of the white liberal has been nothing but a series of trickery designed to make Negros think that the white liberal was going to solve our problems. Our problems will never be solved by the white man.

...For almost 150 years the United States has been conducting an experiment. The subjects of the experiment: black people and working-class whites. The hypothesis to be tested: Can a people taken from the jungles of Africa and forced into slavery be fully integrated as citizens in a majority white population?
...The experiment has failed. Not because of culture, or white privilege, or racism. The fundamental problem is that white people and black people are different. They differ intellectually and temperamentally. These differences result in permanent social incompatibility.
...Our rulers dont seem to understand just how tired their white subjects are with this experiment. They dont understand that white people arent out to get black people; they are just exhausted with them. They are exhausted by the social pathologies, the violence, the endless complaints, the blind racial solidarity, the bottomless pit of grievances, the excuses, the reflexive animosity. The elites explain everything with racism,
My Great Grandparents came to America in the 1890’s from Italy. Where do they fit in this Democrat insanity?
Ill gladly agree to pay any slaves from that era, reparations. Heck even their children. That is all.
We gave up the concept of tainted blood when we gave up England.
Excuse me but I was cut out of the will...

So what’s new about Democrats buying votes with promises of free sh*t ?
And when the proposed free sh*t is cash money, they gonna get 150% of the Negro vote.
Every politician supporting this fraud have positively identified themselves as thieves, unsuitable for any position of authority. They must be removed from office.
It’s done. Nothing we could do would ever be “enough”. Nothing. Ever. I say be glad white Christian American men fought and died for your freedom. Blacks are still slaves in other parts of the world. Your attitude is making my ancestors question their efforts.
Further every ‘black person’ in America knows black men need to step up for their families and still haven't done so for the most part.......black people know that slavery ended more than 150 years and that your own black people sold you to the slave traders as well.. but YOU still love playing the white mans victim! You cannot fix past injustices with current injustices by demanding reparations for acts nobody alive today did decades ago!...... The only way to fix past injustices is with individual freedom. Thats it.
