If we must have reparations for slavery in America, I think that the Democrat party ought be the entity that pays since their power was established and built on slavery.

And if we must tear down symbols and ban of the Southern side of the civil war because of its association with slavery, then we should tear down symbols of the Democrats for the same reason.

The Democrats are not only the party constantly trying to condemn America for its past sins. In most cases they were the party that committed the sins. Slavery. The trail of Tears. Japanese Internment. Jim Crow Laws. Lynchings. The KKK. More recently the Weather Underground. Antifa thugs. And BLM thugs. Always the party of division and hate. If any entity in America owes restitution, its the Democrat party.

I would add that if reparations were paid it would be
a one time deal only and we would never have to hear
any more about it from these DESCENDENTS of victims.

Slavery in NYS ended in the 1830’S.
