I am okay with anyone receiving reparations who was a slave prior to the ratification of the 13th Amendment in 1865, which abolished slavery.

Everyone else can go straight to Hades.

I believe Chris Rock did a bit about that round of reparations tease.

Yeah the joke is, give them all money and then one year all the money will be right back in private industry and government hands.

“She also criticized the fact that reparations only apply to any persons who faced housing discrimination between 1933-1972 and not just black people”

I wouldn’t be surprised if my Mom’s Italian family had housing discrimination issues. They lived in L.A. / Hollywood in the late 20’s until the late 50’s. Both my grandmother and Grandfather were born in Italy.

During WWII according to family members the Italians, in at least the L.A. area, had a curfew. Of course, if any of my family members that were alive during that period of time were still with us, they wouldn’t be crying for reparations.

If any of our money goes for reparations, I can imagine a lot of things will go to the congresscritters that voted for it. And it won’t be soft things. That’ll be a tipping point that leftists will very,very much regret.

That car in the pic appears to be an early 60s era Chevy. I’d pay for one of those, but given my experiences with Cadillac and Mercedes, those clowns can take their unreliable junk and shove it.

The money would be gone in a month. There’d be a lot of Colt45 cans, menthol cigarette butts strewn around. Sales of sneakers would go through the roof.

Then the dems would say it wasn’t enough and that another round was needed.

Gutfeld! did a segment on this last night, Tyrus and Hotep Jesus, both black, basically said it was a scam. Bottom line few will qualify for reparations given the rules they set up and those that do get reparations will quickly squander the money. Meanwhile, Newsom can be made out as some national hero based on nothing more than virtue signaling.

There should never be reperations as not a single slave is alive today from that era.

How about reparations for the property stolen or destroyed by the Union Army ,from my ancestors in Mississippi ? I heard they took all our live stock , ate all our chickens and hogs , broke our fences , burned our barns , and paid not a dime for any if it. Oh , and ps: our folks kept no slaves , so what justification did they have for any of it? Pure & simple ; conqueror mentality and white Southerner hatred. Waiting for ‘ reparations’ . Even an apology would do...
