I keep wondering why reparations are such a big deal to blacks? No black alive today was ever a slave to start with. I look at the minorities in the United States today.

Japanese, Chinese, and asians in general come here, work hard, and make something of themselves.

Mexicans and central/south americans, for the most part, work hard and support their families.

Europeans work hard and assimilate.

Blacks, those that are born here, are whiny. They cry about racism against their ancestors 160 years ago and how it affects them now. They are born in a country that is the land of opportunity, the greatest nation on the face of the earth, and all they can do is look to the past, sit down on their asses and cry their eyes out.

That is the problem. While everyone else looks to the future, blacks in the United States look to Africa and the past. Until they overcome this, they will be nothing more than they are now.

Black kids who actually do their homework are taunted for "going white" -- and we wonder why they have problems?
