UN says US should give African-Americans reparations for slavery

The United States should give African-Americans reparations for slavery, UN experts said Tuesday, warning that the country had not yet confronted its legacy of “racial terrorism.”

Amid a presidential election campaign in which racial rhetoric has played a central role, the UN working group on people of African descent warned that blacks in the United States are facing a “human rights crisis.”

This article is a disgrace. It prominently mentions all the baloney libtard talking points--"...police officers who have killed a series of black men — many of them unarmed — across the country ...", "...killings “and the trauma they create are reminiscent of the past racial terror of lynchings,”...", bleeeech! All hype and no facts, the true libtard way. And why are no other nations who kept slaves in the past and who keep slaves even now being targeted for this punishment?

Who is "Ricardo A. Sunga", and who died and appointed him an authority on "reparations" for black descendants of slaves? By that logic, I should be getting reparations from EGYPT because they enslaved the Jews for over 400 years. What a complete utter semi-truckload of putrid baloney!

Another point---if THIS is how the United Nations collection of bigoted libtards rolls, it is even more dangerous to turn over our internet rights to this collection of criminals and thieves. Yet that is exactly what the traitor in chief wants to do, in order to kiss UN behind to get his next job as head of the UN.

Are the other member nations going to pay for it?

The islamist nations should pay for the deaths they caused, and they should have retribution for starting the killing in the first place.

including “elements of apology” and a form of “debt relief” to the descendants of enslaved people.

I'd say that affirmative action, set asides, and the gargantuan welfare state have covered that. Not surprisingly, the recipients got even more bitter.

All of the contributions of white people have not been bad. We created western culture, with its science, medicine, philosophy and art.

A lot of good, here. If we have this racial guilt for bad deeds done by strangers with white skin, do we get royalties for good deeds by strangers with white skin?

I say yes. Consider this the start of the Royalties Movement. We will get more back than we pay out.

Have the Negros ever thanked the White man for setting them free? I don’t recall reading about it in the history books.

Still Thinking says the UN should pay reparations to all sane humans for having to listen to their collectivist commie bullshit.

Let’s first start by having the African nations that sold their people into slavery pay reparations. We’ll talk after that happens.

I am past the point of saying “Get the UN out of the US”, I’m getting to the point where inam thinking that the UN should be wiped off of the face of the earth.
