If you can prove any of my ancestors owned slaves, I’ll pay reparations.

Do they realize that realize that the Non-US “Americas” will be paying 25 TIMES as much as the US would based on where the slaves were delivered?

I’m a descendant of Roman slaves. I demand reparations from Italy.

So blacks want reparations from me because I am white. The fact that no single relative of mine even entered the country until the 1890s, and no direct ancestor of mine entered until 1905, appears to be irrelevant. So does the fact that I never owned slaves, nor are there any living persons who were legally held as slaves in the US.

OK, I’ll bite. I am not only white, but I am also Jewish. My ancestors were held as slaves in Egypt - an African country, I would point out - as recently as 3,300 years ago. Thus Africans (and those descended from them) owe ME reparations. If I may be so bold, I think that I can speak for the entirety of the Jewish people and state that we will collectively take the nominal sum of $1.00 as full compensation for the work of all of my ancestors - plus interest of 1.00% for the last 3,300 years. That works out to approximately 182,194,000,000,000, which works out to approximately $12,146,000 for each Member of the Tribe now living. I’ll be even more bold and assert that we’ll all settle for only $12,000,000 each, in the spirit of generosity and forgiveness. So, once I have received my $12 million, I will be glad to fork over a couple hundred thousand in reparations to someone whose ancestors were slaves a mere 156 years ago. If they don’t have it, then they can reduce my payment by the amount that I owe them, and owe me (or my descendants) the remainder (with interest continuing to accrue at 1%).

Otherwise, I am not paying shit - because, as the saying goes, “I didn’t own no slaves, and you didn’t pick no cotton.”

Which slavery is he talking about? Blacks? Irish? Jews? Or perhaps the slavery that continues today in muslim countries?

I don’t owe anyone a damn thing from what ancestors may have done.

How about repatriation? Maybe they are just saying it incorrectly?

I think payments should begin with this dummy. Since I feel benevolent, I suggest he pay my share too.

I have heard that Kamala’s ancestors owned Irish slaves. How about paying their descendants reparations?

(I don’t believe in this reparations garbage but if these people want to go down that road then be consistent; otherwise they are nothing more than hypocrites and are not worth listening to.)

I don’t believe in reparations either, but if the left are gonna play that game, then throw some facts In their faces and demand that they be consistent wit their idiotic agenda

Besides, white folks a.ready paid reparations. 600,000 folks willingly gave and lost their lives fighting to free slaves. And whites may very well have been slaves In larger numbers than black folks regardless of what they called it (indentured servitude- it was not, it was flat out slavery, and whites were treated as bad as or worse than black slaves because white s,Aves were easier and cheaper to get. Everyone back I. The slavery days k ew that whites were slaves and not simply ‘indentured servants like the lying left try to claim. These are facts that the .eft don’t want to admit or even hear about. You should see how fiercely they dispute the fact that whites served as slaves too
