They are making enemies for black people who are innocent in all this. I would imagine those people aren’t Americans in any sense of the word. I surprised myself by saying how tired and disgusted I am of this, and blamed the black people in general...that’s not right, we need to remember this is not a race war but in fact a revolution of a once Godly country. We are heading for a one world government in a down hill slide...all of us no matter the color.

Any comment from the lesbian Episcopal bishop who condemned Trump walking over there with a Bible?

before demanding that all white Christians pay cash to black people for the sins of these churches.

That bill is paid in full by the 750,000 deaths in the American Civil War. The population of the USA was about 30 million then. Percentage wise today this would be about 7 million dead.

The bill has been paid with the blood of soldiers both North and South and civilians.

I personally know many black Americans who are devout Christians and would never buy into the Naziesque philosophy of BLM that says black lives matter more than those of any other race. I am personally not going to go around blaming black people generally for any of this. This is all the work of skilled and well-organized Marxist agitators. Indeed in the protest photos I've seen at least half the crowd are affluent white college kiddies who have joined ANTIFA.

No comment from the Episcopal leadership who condemned Trump’s walk over there.

On the other hand, they may be supporting it - letting the theater play out. The Episcopal church must have billions that it stole from its more conservative congregations - real estate, trust funds and endowments - and might use that to start a campaign of paying the BLM people, and making pressure for other groups to pay.

Behind Cheeks, another man echoed his sentiment. He also told anyone who would listen about how white Christians would rape black men on plantations as a form of “racial dominance.”

Now where in the world did...ahem...Behind Cheeks...learn that?!

REPORTER: What's your name?
PROTESTOR: Behind Cheeks.
(Ass Cheeks! And this stupid reporter believes that is the person's real name, so much so that it goes into print!)
REPORTER: What would you like to tell your fellow Americans?

Go on forever? They are just getting started.

If someone doesn’t appear (because no one currently on the stage) to foster a strong reaction and galvanize the opposition they are going to come for everything.

Retirement, property, expect “economic empowerment” laws forcing the hiring of POC leading to massive white generational unemployment. Failure of infrastructure which will then be blamed on the whites.

What sins?

Black slaves were better treated in the colonies which became the United States, than anywhere else.

Black slaves which were sold to those territories, have fared much better than blacks left in Africa.

Any reparations are owed to the United States for the costs of the Civil War.

Are you trying to defend slavery? Because there IS no defense. I am not in favor of reparations, but please don’t make it sound like American slavery was ok because it was worse somewhere else.

Well kinda thankfully, I was born in the mid 70’s. I grew up on Reagan and the tail end of the cold war. Still remember nuclear war fears, but I never felt that society itself was coming apart.

I saw the video of the Soviet agent that defected in the 80’s, don’t remember his name, basically just a youtube search away. He said the troublemakers are the first against the wall in a communist takeover, and that is for sure.

Scott Adams has had a brilliant insight about the demand for reparations.

Don’t compare blacks in America to whites but to blacks in Africa.

Because there IS no defense.

Nonsense. Slavery was an excepted part of the human condition for all of history, until people in Western Civilization, consisting mostly of white Christian men, decided to end it.

Everything has to be taken in historical context.

The fact that slaves in the territory which became the United States were treated better than elsewhere is completely appropriate.

The fact that slaves elsewhere hardly left any progeny, is completely appropriate to the discussion.

The fact that most of the relatives if the slaves which came to the territory which became the United States died before they did is completely worth noting.
