Offer to strip their citizenship, confiscate 95% of their wealth, and ship them to the correct part of Africa as dictated by their DNA. At that point it would be almost as though slavery never happened, certainly closer than would be the result of just dumping money on people who didn’t earn it. Think there would be any takers? Me either. Now, there’s an awful lot of Caucasians who were wrongfully denied admittance to college or employment specifically because of their race over the last couple decades (via Affirmative Action policies). Reparations for Whitey now!
Why no calls for other countries who participated in slave trade to give “reparations” to blacks?
Gots to get it done before Obama leaves ,will Obama borrow the $20 Trillion or just print it and will the UN pick who’s gets some cash or will the Clinton Foundation take care of it
I have 60 cents in my wallet. If they shut up about it, they can have all of it.
Once that Pandora’s Box of Reparations is opened, there will be no way to close it without a full out war. Someone needs to remind the UN that the US is still a sovereign nation, that is not to be dictated to by foreign interest lobby groups. Not even a President Obama could fully change that.
Ping.
This crap financed in large part by our tax dollars.
Uh, transportation costs and room and board for being rescued from the dark continent.
Same old whining.
Gibsmedat! Gibsmedat! Gibsmedat!
I am so sick of hearing the lazy takers.
Get the filthy rich NFL and NBA bros to share with you.
I do not owe anybody any “reparations” for anything!
I have never owned a slave.
My family has never owned slaves.
Go dig up the dead slave owners and make them pay.
The stage is being set for UN Secretary Obama’s global tax that will be payed for by hard working Americans.
The middle classe will disappear.
All funds and expenses that the USA would allocate to the UN (including climate change) could be used for job training for the unemployed.
Time for us to tell the UN to pound sand and FUUN...
My ancestors were northerners who did not own slaves and were strong abolitionists. Plus, I had a great, great uncle who died for the Union in the Battle of Plain Store in May of 1863.
So, too bad for the rest of you, ‘cause I’m off the hook!
...right?
Molone Lave, you blue helmeted surrender monkeys. You cross that ocean, you will die unknown and unheralded in the vastness of the United States.
And we still won’t pay reparations. My family paid in blood and that’s all they get.
Right! As do the Saxons from the Normans, the Chinese from the Mongols, the Greeks from the Persians, the Jews from the Germans/Romans/Russians, the Armenians from the Turks...this is about the silliest damn thing that ever came from the UN. And that’s saying something.
My great grandfather fought for the Union in the Civil War that ended slavery so I’m paid up
Lets talk about what the UN owes to everyplace it has ever been and screwed up worse by being there.
No more reparations.
No more UN. GTFO.
Go figure....
Most of the members of the “United Nations’ Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent” happen to be of “African Descent”
People paid for working at or around the UN owe the American people 99% of their salaries because they say such S-T-O-O-P-I-D things with an exclamation point.
