50% of slavery reparations should be paid for by the Democratic Party. The other 50% should be paid for by the African countries that enslaved their own people and sold them to American slavetraders.

50% of slavery reparations should be paid for by the Democratic Party. The other 50% should be paid for by the African countries that enslaved their own people and sold them to American slavetraders.

The Democratic Party should have to pay slavery reparations, because they supported slavery.

But the very first Republican president was the one who freed the slaves. There’s no way Republicans should have to pay reparations.

50% of reparations should be paid for by the Democratic Party.

The other 50% should be paid for by the African countries that enslaved their own people and sold them to American slavetraders.

While I understand the sentiment there should be zero reparations. It sets a very bad precedent.

How about 0% get paid by anyone? Or, how about pairing reparations with repatriations. I’d be interested in where the break even point would be on the money.

Don’t forget all the Islamic countries of the Middle East (not just Africa). They were all part of the slave trade then and now. The Hispanic population should demand their reparations from the Moors for 700 years of slavery in Spain.

I want my Irish heritage reparations. We were the original slaves of Tobacco Row.

Don’t give credence to it. That’s how liberals win, by getting you to credence to their view.

The very idea is ridiculous. You’ll never find one living person who’s entitled to reparations for slavery or racism in the U.S.

Without the windfall of revenue from the slave trade, sub-saharan Africa wouldn’t be the utopia it is today?

No. I think reparations to someone not harm is stupid. People need to earn their way through life and not rely on their ancestors to pay things for them.

PS, screaming fonts are for people that cannot control their emotions. They need to grow up.

No black person deserves it. No white person owes it.

If you buy into this logic, Israel has an extremely well-documented case for reparations against Egypt.

That is why globalist thugs want even Lincoln statues to come down. Socialists are pure evil.

africans enslaved Europeans for over a thousand years, for 800 years before the Europeans enslaved africans.

Where's my check?
