Well, let them use their own money to pay “reparations” if that’s what they want to do. Just keep their thieving commie hands off the American taxpayer dollars. Bitches. These so called “Black Americans” never picked cotton and I never owned any slaves. We’re even. American taxpayers should not have their money taken away from them because a couple of dumbass,thieving commie ‘RATS need votes. If they try this crap, they both need to be arrested for thievery and thrown in prison.

These people never, and I mean never give you a an idea that taps into American “Charles Edinburgh” like spirit.

It’s all about take from us and give it to them...and they’ll give it to someone else...

My Dad came over from Greece in the 1920s. He shined shoes in NEw York. Sometimes he didn’t get paid. HOw about some reparations for me...

Freed slaves must be compensated! Sheila Jackson Lee, (”I stand here as a freed slave because this Congress came together”) needs to be provided with the cash she deserves. Of course it must be determined that her claim is not a hoax.

This applauded by the black plantation owners association, the black national caucus. Keep the herd on the farm feed them well and ask nothing of them or from them.

“The winner of the primary will probably be whoever can be the nuttiest far leftist.”

That WILL NOT be a bad thing: After they get THEIR WELL-DESERVED, YUUUUGE smackdown in 2020, LIEberals will have nothing, and nowhere to go!

Keep digging LIEberals!

Keep digging!

Theirs is not a “reasonable case” argument!

It is a “FRee stuff” argument!

And tell us, how did my family, who were toiling in Italy and England in 1860s, came to own slaves in the USA? We gave blacks money...

I agree. Every former slave owner should pay into a fund to be distributed to every former slave.

I guess over half a million dead Union soldiers was insufficient payment. They are taking a dump on all those crosses at Arlington with this reparations nonsense.

Go to hell. I’ve paid many times over, starting with the job that I didn’t get, which went to the people who want my money now.

With vote fraud getting noticed now, and more illimigrants getting antsy, they’re gonna need more valid votes. So, gee, they’ll need the black vote again.

One unspoken Great Hope in Obama by blacks was reparations. Another, of course, was spank whitey and hard.

Problem is, blacks are seeing that Trump’s actions actually help them — more jobs with less illimigrant competition.

Wonder how BLEXIT’s doing these days.

“How much?” Yeh, how much. How much as a percent black will it take to qualify? And, will the amount paid in reparations be based upon percent black? Also, is there a method to identify slave based blackness from none slave based blackness? As a side note, I’m guessing most whites have at least a small amount of black DNA, those who are of Southern European descent. Recall your world history classes, Ancient Greeks, Romans, etc, marched all over North Africa, Middle East, etc. then there’s the Moors who occupied Spain. Lots of opportunities for mischief, 😂...

It is time for everyone to declare their race “black” and put an end to this craziness.

If the lefties want to argue that your self-identification of gender makes that your gender then they should be arguing that self-identification of race makes that your race!
