My ancestors were some of those who shed blood to free those slaves.
Debt paid.
Same here. End of story.
Notice all the money is going to “education”, ie, few if any of the descendants will get a penny.
Reparation. That’s four syllables.
Corruption is easier. It’s only three. Lets call it corruption.
The Dems have promised the black community, that they would help them since LBJ. about all they’ve done is destroy the black families, then held them down in poverty and aborted their babies. At least DJT gave them an economy with jobs. Obummer never did that, all they got was a cheap Obamaphone.
If you want to see pissed off people, just watch when people who were never slave holders and are just barely getting along having to give part of their pay to blacks who were never slave owners buying houses and new cars with their sudden found wealth.
I doubt that it is about reparations.
Instead another clever way to drive a wedge between the races.
Pure racism.
Once we only one real live Al Sharpton....now we have dozens of mimics.
Democrats could still win despite the reparations talk.
A lot of whiteguilt people in America: athletes, singers, etc.
Even corporate America.
It is possible Democrats could win in 2020
Those who enact and enforce it better have a tube of Reparaition-H handy.
I call a certain amount of BS here.
It’s hardly some profile in courage, to say you are in favor of setting up some commission to study an issue.
What about the core issue. I wish they would say, are they in favor of actually doing reparations? Forget the committee to study this and that. Where do they stand on the subject? Will they push for it as president?
Heinekin and German march music. Another FReeper’s fault. “Reparation-H”
Sorry - my people were still in Germany until 1875, long after slavery was abolished.
Not from me home boy, find another sucker....
It’s cheesy. It really is. A shameless pander.
Although I can't imagine any member of that woebegone mob of current Democrat hopefuls making it to the White House, it could still happen given the Left's near-total control of the news and entertainment media, k-through-postdoc education, Silicon Valley, and much of Wall Street.
More woke lib madness. I we are liable for racial misdeeds, do we get credit for racial good deeds? White males brought us western civilization, good and bad. The good: Math, science, medicine, democracy, due process etc.......When do we get royalties for all this?
While we’re at it, while I am a Christian by choice, part of my family were Jewish. So.....for all you Goyum out there, be prepared pay up for Goyum misdeeds. Of course, there is that eternal salvation thing, which might pay this debt.
awesome! yet ANOTHER totally losing issue for the insane leftist Dems (like they really needed another one) ...
Isn’t affirmative action a reparation?
Whatever number they come up with for reparations won’t scratch the surface on the 500,000 Union lives + 1 President who died to keep the United States together and set their ancestors free.
Reparations? You’re welcome.
The DemonCRAPs are sensing that the Black vote is slipping away in favor of Trump. Reparations are a way to pull them back in line using the promise of a bribe. Of course, promises will be broken.
