We're literally hunted EVERYDAY/EVERYTIME we step foot outside the comfort of our homes!" LeBron says (which is a weird thing for one of the most rich, famous, respected athletes on the planet to say).

Well that same LeBron just added another castle to his collection. He paid $36.8 MILLION for a Hollywood mansion once owned by Katharine Hepburn.

Who even knows how many houses this guy has now. All this oppression sure is paying off for him!

[Jewbacca]

He might not die broke, but his kids will.

So there is that.

[CodeToad]

Since he feels blacks are oppressed, he should be taxed all those homes that he has and the money given to blacks.

Buying a Mansion never fed a Hungry Black Child

When no one watches sports anymore, they’re not going to be paid that much money.

[MayflowerMadam]

At least he didn’t leave America and move to Hawaii like that other sports genius threatens to do.

[Deplorable American1776]

If he wasn't oppressed, he could buy a $100 MILLION house. I wish I was oppressed like that!!😀

It’s tough when you can’t even go from the 20 foot high, custom carved, mahogany front door of your mega multimillion dollar estate mansion to the fine Corinthian leather backseat of your chauffeur-driven, armored, extended body limousine surrounded by bodyguards in your own driveway without being threatened and harassed because of your race.

It’s tough and so, so unfair.

[A Navy Vet]

Actually it is a bill to form a committee to study reparations. Didn’t know it already passed. Other than the waste of money, it will take them years to figure out who should pay and who should receive. I would bet it will take them a couple years just to figure out who should be doing the background checks. Once they post the results, watch the lawsuits fly! It will never happen.

“Actually it is a bill to form a committee to study reparations. Didn’t know it already passed.”

Incrementalism. It’s the way they do things. Even Republicans voted for this idiocy. Once you accept the premise of reparation, you’re toast, the rest is details.

And once it passes in CA, it will soon metastasize to the rest of the country. And if Biden gets in it’ll be a national policy.

[A Navy Vet]

Yes, I understand incrementalism. It's the dem/soc/commie way. Fine let other States form committees to yap about this non-issue. Let's see any of them come up with solid formula of who pays and who gets. It will take years to sort out who had slaves and who were slaves and more importantly, their descendants. It's too long ago to make definitive conclusions.

Plus, the number of lawsuits and counter lawsuits will tie this up in the courts for a decade or more. Then you have those who just refuse to pay since current citizenry haven't owned a slave. This is all major theater and only a feel good exercise for the benefit of BLM, Inc. and the war against White Americans.

[aquila48]

“Then you have those who just refuse to pay since current citizenry haven’t owned a slave.”

I’m sure that’s not how it’s going to work. I imagine they’ll create a slush fund from some general tax and allocate that to blacks. Basically another welfare program with blacks being the only beneficiaries.

"I imagine they’ll create a slush fund from some general tax and allocate that to blacks."

Possibly, but how do they determine which blacks are actual descendants of black slaves and not free blacks, and there were many. How do they get the DNA from slaves so as to match DNA with living blacks? Photos, diaries, letters, etc., won't be definitive. Plus, the ancestor companies have been proven to be inexact.

Let California and other States form their reparations committees and mull it around for years. Individual payments to anyone who is black will not happen. Plus, at what percentage of african-american will qualify? 100%? 50%? 25%? What?

You’re being way too rational.

How do they determine who qualifies for “affirmative action”?

[A Navy Vet]

"How do they determine who qualifies for “affirmative action”?"

Easy one, that's always been determined by the color of the skin, whether light brown to deep black. Plus, whatever the applicant put on an admission form in the race box.

“Easy one, that’s always been determined by the color of the skin, whether light brown to deep black. Plus, whatever the applicant put on an admission form in the race box.”

They’ll do the same for reparation... after all isn’t affirmative action a form of reparation.

[Osage Orange]

Maybe he could build some single family dwellings..in safe neighborhoods.

If there's anything like that in SoCal now...

The guy is an idiot.....let's just say it.

An overpaid moron.....
