Black Californians could be in line for $360,000 payments each as part of the state's plan to dish out 'reparations' to descendants of slaves.

'There is only one thing that would stop our children busting into these liquor stores and grocery stores, stealing junk food and different things and that's reparations.'

Folks,

Remember all payments(welfare) is payment not to riot and steal.

Predication, if they pay this there will be even more looting.

I would bet a significant amount of personal wealth on this prediction.

‘only way to stop our children busting into liquor and grocery stores’

90% of the people receiving these funds will have pi$$ed thru the money in a year or less and will end up right back where they started.

All one has to do is look at the poor, uneducated blacks that have won the lottery. It’s a virtual template for what will transpire.

Dane-Geld by Kipling (Shortened version)
A.D. 980-1016

It is always a temptation to an armed and agile nation
To call upon a neighbour and to say: —
“We invaded you last night—we are quite prepared to fight,
Unless you pay us cash to go away.”

And that is called asking for Dane-geld,
And the people who ask it explain
That you’ve only to pay ‘em the Dane-geld
And then you’ll get rid of the Dane!

***
And that is called paying the Dane-geld;
But we’ve proved it again and again,
That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld
You never get rid of the Dane.
***

“We never pay any-one Dane-geld,
No matter how trifling the cost;
For the end of that game is oppression and shame,
And the nation that pays it is lost!”

Nonsense.

They will do it anyways. Why pay for the alcohol and you can take it for free?

It is wrong to put temptation in the path of any nation,
For fear they should succumb and go astray;
So when you are requested to pay up or be molested,
You will find it better policy to say: —

“We never pay any-one Dane-geld,
No matter how trifling the cost;
For the end of that game is oppression and shame,
And the nation that pays it is lost!”

California wasn’t a slave state. And it didn’t get into the Union until what 1860?

What stupidity. The only way to stop it is to make them sorry they ever got the jdea.

The only thing this will do is make other blacks angry they aren’t getting da money. So if every descendent of a shave beets $336k a family of 10 is looking to net $3.6 million. Not they can buy the ghetto. Going to create more gibsmedats

Exactly right. They would infer:
1. We got $350k, they are rich, there is more where that came from. Time to steal!
2. Resentment of whitey will reach new heights because people don’t like being kept like pets and being told they are useless, the only way to get ahead is to take “reparations” money.

Basic human nature. It is SO predictable.

Besides, it it worked and following their “logic,” the $25 TRILLION we have already paid should have brought the crime rate down to zero. Why didn’t it?

The only way to reduce black crime is for blacks to return to a wholesome lifestyle. Repent and return to Christ. Stop having illegitimate children. Get married, stay married. Value education and demand a quality education. Have a strong work ethic, live within your means, stop with the envy. Return to strong moral values and demand the same from your community. And, of course, shun drugs and alcohol.

Probably a few things, but this should be a good start. Money does not solve problems arising from a sinful lifestyle.

Where to start. So they will pay these “reparations” and then claim there is still discrimination so more needs to be paid, more “equity” needed against white men.

Isn’t California majority minority? So the minorities are being penalized, or they are stealing, I guess both.

The most leftist state owes blacks all this money. Go figure.

And the solution to the “busting in” should be a gun behind the counter, but they outlawed that so they can steal the $360k and still keep “busting in”.

Because of course there is no linkage to getting the money and any kind of good behavior.

<< ‘There is only one thing that would stop our children busting into these liquor stores and grocery stores, stealing junk food and different things >>

More like big box and jewelry stores, stealing electronics and bling. And yes, there is only one way to stop it — increase the penalty and enforce the law.

Just a silly thought on the subject

Since a great many of the desendents of slaves are mixed race would the payments be prorated for the number of White ancestors the recipient had?

My grandchildren are 50% black 50% white (to the best of my knowledge).

Would they only get $180,000?

They absurdity of this reparations idea only gets more and more apparent as you consider it rationally,.

Won’t take six months and they’ll have blown through the reparations cash and everything will be back as it was.
