SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — A proposal to establish a task force to study and prepare recommendations for how to give reparations to African Americans passed the California Assembly on Thursday.

The bill advanced with a 56-5 vote as protests nationwide over police brutality re-energized the movement for racial justice and activists pressed for sweeping reforms. It is a top priority for California's Legislative Black Caucus.

Cal just keeps sinking into the muck and mire. Crazier every day. No slavery in Cal. Deficit spending. Asking the feds for money. Spending 26 bill a year on sevices to illegals.

Wasn't California a Free State?

Oh yeah, IT WAS! >:(

[FatherofFive]

Pass it to attract all AA’s to California?

Just try it. You think you’re seeing an exodus now?

Quite possibly offset by an influx of AA's looking for their free stuff before moving to the next state to follow California's lead.

This is so idiotic.

So they are going to set up some commission to study the issue of reparations for slavery. The commission is going to conclude that we should do reparations for slavery. And then the question will be how much money we all have to pay into the reparations fund.

This is classic camel’s nose in the tent happening. The commission is going to report chapter and verse on the many ways which slaves and then free black citizens had been mistreated. And then having duly reported and documented such historic wrongs that were done, then they will shift into reparations mode to decide what is the proper remedy to make things right.

I have no doubt that setting up a commission to study the issue of reparations is going to conclude that we need to pay for reparations. The only question is how much is it going to cost all of us.

I am all for reparations. Every slave owner still alive needs to pay reparations to any of their surviving slaves.

Hollywood has the most, and should give it all up first.

And, they have the biggest homes.

They should give up their property and wealth FIRST.
