An editorial in a Canadian paper about US slave reparations?
The president that pushed through the Civil Rights Act of 1964, with the help of Republicans, is the same president that ensured that the welfare state would do what the Jim Crow Laws could no longer do...................
Let’s remember that Democrats were at the center of the establishment of Jim Crow laws and never let the discussion of reparations pass without throwing that on the table.
I approve of slavery reparations in the following amounts:
$10,000,000 tax free for each and every individual who was held in slavery in this country while slavery was legal.
$5,000,000 tax free for every individual who has at least one biological parent who was held in slavery in this country while slavery was legal.
Everyone else needs to get a job and STFU.
There, I added a comment to that lonely website
lol
PS - Individuals must still be among the living and must be able to prove their status in order to collect reparations.
We ALREADY paid our “slave debt” IN RIVERS OF BLOOD over 150 years ago.
Not a damn thing more from me.
They have sold themselves back into the slavery of the Democrat party for EBT cards. They can suck it.
We even freed Sheila Jackson Lee!
I’m all in favor of making the Democrats pay reparations for what they did.
Give them a once-per-lifetime choice:
1. No reparations and welfare.
2. Reparations and no welfare.
One or the other. Not both.
Unfortunately courts will simply overturn it and give them both
If there is one organization that owes reparations in America, it is the Democratic Party. No other organization has benefited from slavery and the oppression of blacks more than the Dems. No other organization has done more to terrorize blacks (by forming and protecting the KKK) and oppress them through legal means like Jim Crow laws. Let’s see the Dem Party pay $100 million a year to blacks. Then we can talk about everyone else doing so.
We must quit pillaging the Productive Class to support a Parasite Class. Let the obese thieves of the Parasite Class do something useful for a living, or starve. They're destroying America.
Just
no.
A fine black wine is poured. I think the blacks should pay reparations to America for fighting a bloody Civil War to free them from slavery.
Hey Canada. Go talk to England, eh? They were sold by Arabs and England shipped them here.
Yes plenty of comments!
“Until that moment, he had lived inside a black community whose limits were dictated by an array of so-called Jim Crow laws that, since the Civil War, racist state and local governments had imposed with viselike effects.”
Today most blacks still live inside a black community. Why?
Today most blacks vote in bloc for the Democrat Party. You know the Party that started the KKK. The party that did not vote for desegragation. The party that still treats them as if they can not make it on their own. So WHY???
As to reparations you can stick that where the sun won’t hit it... None of my family was muslim pirates or black in Africa that captured and sold blacks to the dutch and others. None of my family going back as many generations as we were able to trace ever owned a slave, bought a slave sold a slave etc. We did have one relative fight and get wounded in the Civil War. So no. You are not handing out any of my tax dollars to anyone that has been voting for the very people that hold them back for the past 150 years. That has nothing to do with me.......
The only “reparations” that should be offered should be vouchers for one-way flights to Liberia. The vouchers will be redeemed at the Amerian Embassy when the recipient renounces his American citzenship, fills out the forms and surrenders his American passport.
