We can’t get over the crimes of the past if we are looking at Paydays for wrongs done long ago. I am Irish—should England pay me for the potatoe Famine? Should Italy pay England for making that Island part of their empire? i lost family in the Civil War—should Virginia pay me for their loss? It gets really stupid fast. Sorry, no pay days are coming and if their were—how much would be enough? One Million for every Black family? two Million? ten Million? let the past bury the past and look towards the future and earning your own millions!

I live in California where slavery never existed. If reparations are ever to be paid to these mooches, shouldn't all Californians be exempt?

Actually, we should all be exempt as not one person alive in America today owned a slave and not one person alive in America was a slave. The very thought of it is as divisive as can be and only a black racist would consider it.

Yes. The potatoe famine and also “bloody sunday” when they shot you in the head and then pretended that they didn’t. They murdered you, and now must pay you reparations. You’re Irish, so all crimes against the Irish accrue to your benefit.
