My Great Grandparents came to America in the 1890’s from Italy. Where do they fit in this Democrat insanity?
In this insanity, they would be said to have benefited from “white privilege”, and thus are still responsible for slavery.
So what’s new about Democrats buying votes with promises of free sh*t ?
And when the proposed free sh*t is cash money, they gonna get 150% of the Negro vote.
Every politician supporting this fraud have positively identified themselves as thieves, unsuitable for any position of authority. They must be removed from office.
You assume that Democrats in Congress and those running for POTUS are genuinely interested in compensating black Americans for something both they and whites today had no involvement in.
No, reparations is simply a crude, last-gasp attempt to keep blacks angry and divided and ironically support the very white supremacy that the Left rails against.
Also, if reparations were ever paid out, it would go to left-wing black groups like the NAACP and Nation of Islam and leaders anyway.
It’s done. Nothing we could do would ever be “enough”. Nothing. Ever. I say be glad white Christian American men fought and died for your freedom. Blacks are still slaves in other parts of the world. Your attitude is making my ancestors question their efforts.
Affirmative Action
I knew of a black owned sign business in Florida who got hired to go help paint the floor at a pro basketball arena. They were all told to just stand aside and watch because they didn’t know a thing about doing graphics on a wood floor. So everyone got paid to stand around and watch because being a gov contract, they had to hire a certain amount of minority owned contractors for the job.
I’m sure many of us have experienced a female or minority gov worker who didn’t know their ass from their elbow. Gotta meet quotas though.
Slavery existed in the New World many years before 1776.
Doesn't matter. . .you have white skin. . so . . .GUILTY!!! The pay-up line forms to the left.
Further every ‘black person’ in America knows black men need to step up for their families and still haven't done so for the most part.......black people know that slavery ended more than 150 years and that your own black people sold you to the slave traders as well.. but YOU still love playing the white mans victim! You cannot fix past injustices with current injustices by demanding reparations for acts nobody alive today did decades ago!...... The only way to fix past injustices is with individual freedom. That’s it.
“Welfare and the tentacle programs of the Great Society WERE reparations. Now we just pay blacks to keep from rioting.”
The government pays blacks to vote Democrat.
And about 90% of them do.
Fine....every current slave in America can have 40 acres and a mule.
Black America needs to look in the mirror and stop blaming others, especially white people for their lot in life. ... I am tired of dealing with people who only want something from others.....
Blacks have nothing but opportunity in America. Try finding the same opportunity anywhere else in the world. If you are born in America you’ve won life’s economic lottery. Take advantage of it!
Decades of Affirmative Action.
Far easier to accuse whites of racism than to take an honest and critical look at the self-destructive, urban culture of gangs, drugs, crime, single-parent households, welfare dependency and the objectification of women.
Well then I say give them 40 acres and mule. And if they want to modernize that, give them 40 ouncers and a mule.
A Black woman writes:
“Yes, America has its problems, but so does every other country. I, for one, am glad I’m here. I am a black woman born and raised in the south. This country may have its issues but the black community continues to beat the racism drum because that’s the only thing that we, as a community can unite around..... Instead of tackling our OWN issues we continue to try and place the blame at other’s feet. We’ve had an african american president, two black attorney generals, two black secretaries of state, successful business people,countless millionaires and a few billionaires.....Yes, America has its problems, but so does every other country. I, for one, am glad I’m here.
Ummmm. . .that would be trillions, about 17 trillion the last I read.
I want some reparation money due to the discrimination I suffered in the 70s otherwise know as Affirmative Action. I lost out on a number of promotions because my white skin did not help fulfill a government quota.
Where do I sign up for my free money?
I lost an accounting job to a black woman who could NOT run a calculator.
Never will forget that.
