Why don't they just outlaw whitey and fire up the ovens.

Same as Indian casinos. Blacks jealously look at the Indians and say “How come we aren’t getting ours?”
Same as those fake Hawaiians who are jealous of Indian casinos and want to be declared a tribe by the Feds so they can get in casinos and sit on their butts collecting a check.

They will, but not until Whitey has coughed up his last dime.

The problem with this...is that it happened fairly recently. We are talking about things done wrong in the 1970s and 1980s.

My dad got into this government program business back in the mid 70’s...where he got with the federal Agricultural Dept rep for the county...submitted the paperwork and eventually got around $7,500 for a irrigation project (he had to match a much bigger portion of the whole package himself). In this case, he had read up on the program...then got the county guy to spend half an hour covering the requirements.

A year later, my dad took advantage of some program to avoid growing on a smaller portion of the farm for a year...and got paid for what would have grown there. Again, there was paperwork and the help of the Ag agent.

So I understand the hostile nature of the blacks involved because they often got no help in going for the programs or support their neighbors were getting. Face it...if you’ve got fifteen pages of paperwork...the typical farmer needs some assistance in assembling an effort.

This isn’t like an entire generation having passed...like the Japanese war camps.

We may never get to that point, but you can be absolutely certain this is just the beginning of the Obama-led assault on whites. Expect the Grand Apology, Reparations, and the Right of Return, in that order. The ROR will be the tool for confiscating white-owned property, principally in the South, and “returning” it to the families of the slaves from whom the white folks stole it.

Behind all the racial grievance mongering and the lawsuits-—It’s all about the Benjamins. All about reparations and casinos. All about picking clean the carcass of a once great and productive nation. Same as they do in DC and on Wall Street

*** lawyers for the USDA and thousands of black farmers reached a $1.25 billion class-action agreement***

I have to believe this was not initiated by the farmers themselves - but by opportunists.

Black family farms were a source of pride and purpose. Now they are wards of the State.

Another means for the Socialists to control the food supply and grab land.

Civil-rights activists see in such words a cry for justice. A more accurate description would be a shakedown.

Probably took their lead from Jesse Jackson, he's been an effective shake down artist for forty years.

Since the headline had ‘Black Farmer’ in quotes I thought this article might be about Arnold Schwarzenegger... /grin

Sure some blacks were treated unfairly. What you are missing is that most of these claims are 100% bllsht (you obviously did not read the article) and not verifiable. Cannot be verified. Many of the old records are trashed, burned and gone

It’s like a truck hits a NYC bus with five passengers. Forty people will file personal injury claims with the help of scummy lawyers

Not only do we stand for it. “We” aid and abet it so long as “we” can get something for “ourselves” from it.

To illustrate: Run up credit card charges that “we” can not or do not want to pay then cry to the government. Buy a house we can’t afford and then cry to the government for help. It is never our fault we do these things. It is always the greedy real estate salesman/woman or the gerrdy car salesman/woman’s fault. “We” do not have the intellectual ability todeduct that if we make a salary of xxxxx “We” cannot afford to pay fro a $50,000.00 car or a $ 500,000.00 house. Nor can “we”fathom that credit charges must be paid. Instead “we” cry that “we” were victims and cry to the government for help. The government responds by taking from of those of us that do have the ability to reason for ourselves at the point of a gun if necessary to give a portion to the parasites.

Soon, there will be more parasites than hosts for them to feed off. Then both parasites and hosts will die.

That, my Friend, is where I think we are now.

Amnesty with chain migration will finish us off.
