Posted on 06/30/2023 6:15:00 AM PDT by artichokegrower

One of the first audience members to speak at Thursday’s California Reparations Task Force meeting suggested Secretary of State Shirley Weber receive a Nobel Prize. A few hours later, Weber, who three years ago wrote the piece of legislation that set California on its historic reparations journey, addressed the crowd.

“We’re going to make sure that our descendants will be able to consult this great document and see the evidence that this state committed the crime against Black folks. And it’s time for them to pay their crime bill.”


You don't want to be calling me a criminal. You don't want to be calling my family criminals. It will not end well

A good lawyer is going to take yesterday’s AA case against Harvard and extrapolate the same reasons on reparations.

I just hope it happens fast enough that the next court still thinks the same way they did yesterday.

the only one who committed a crime against blacks was the Democratic Party.

Until they “get” that, nothing will change or improve for them.

Well, I feel happy for the people who chose to get the hell out of that state before this insanity took place.

Amerika’s Greatest Swindle. Those retarded San Franciscans need to put this insane swindle out of business before it goes any farther. This scum did absolutely nothing to make them deserve “reparations”. Trying to steal money from people just because their skin is white is the REAL CRIME being committed here. If the bastards need money, they should try to get a job first.

I live 3,000 miles from that sorry excuse for a state, and as far as I’m concerned it’s too damned close.

If it does go through and taxes go through the roof over it, the mass departure will just leave illegals to pay for it.

It’s past time for California to be purged, purged from the Union

California has abrogated federal law2 and thus the Union

Those wanting to return to the Union can be herd on a case by case basis

That pronouncement completely ignores the black on black crime that is so much more higher than any other race, creed, or ethnicity.

Why bother breaking windows and looting stores when you can just order people to send you a check?

California had very few blacks until WW2. When blacks immigrated there to work in wartime jobs. California never had slaves. Blacks there are just trying to scam their way to free money. Via reparations and guilt-tripping dumbass white liberals.

There are millions of Asians in California who made their way up after immigrating here. Blacks have no one to blame but themselves.

It is not supposed to end well/ It was not conceived to end well. It was not designed to end well. It was designed to foment strife and war. The goal of those who conceived this concept is the complete and total destruction of the United States of America and with the help of the people it is working.

the only one who committed a crime against blacks was the Democratic Party.

They did the same thing with Japanese Internment.

That was a Democrat crime, during the administration of a Democrat president, caused by a situation that was arguably engineered to cause a war with Japan over a period of years.

But when it came time to "apologize," it was America's crime, America's sin, America's shame.

The Vietnam war was thrown into high gear by a Democrat president, then the responsibility — and the shame, and the embarrassment — was dumped on a Republican president.

Bad things that happen under Republicans are the fault of Republicans, and they happen because of the characteristics and flaws of Republicans.

Bad things that happen under Democrats are turned into "America's fault."

That goes for slavery too, obviously.

There is not one person alive today who has been effected by slavery. Bot 100% of the population has been effected by something...

Recall during WW2 there were Germans and Italians interned as well as Japanese.

A little white fact forgotten.

A point of clarification -

German and Italian ALIENS were interned. There were millions of US citizens of German and Italian ancestry and these were not bothered.

Japanese-ancestry US citizens were interned as well as aliens.
