As the city redevelops Greenwood's vacant lots and buildings, Troupe is also among many residents asking that the city take this history into account when deciding who can lease the land it now owns in Greenwood.

In other words

Because of a racist act 100 years ago, we want you to commit racist acts today.

OH! In reparations of those racist acts 100 years ago.

Sure, let’s by all means, keep the racist animosity train rolling.

The hypocrisy of the Left is amazing.

They talk of the Red Lining that supposedly took place to keep Blacks from owning property, but let us have Red Lining to keep Whites out of our neighborhood.

It started when a large group of armed blacks opened fire on a crowd of whites, when a white deputy tried to disarm one of them.

The whites fell back to arm themselves, and the battle was on, with lots of shooting on both sides. Unfortunately for the black side, the whites were better shots.

I could see a repetition of that happening if an armed BLM march gets into a firefight.

I’m ok with reparations - - - as long as we can deduct the cost of damages from the BLM “peaceful demonstrations”

So everyone that participated in these racist acts should be made to pay (of course they would be over 120 years old, so good luck with that).

Well then, they have no right to complain if white people decide to “redline” their neighborhoods to keep blacks out.

What’s good for the goose....
