One time Reparation payment on condition that all forms of means tested social transfers end immediately, and that any “reparation” payment is to be subject to 100% offset for all payments made over the past generation under the color of “The Great Society,” “War on Poverty” etc.

I agree. If black leftists and the LMS would pay reparations for all the damage they did to Ferguson, it would go a long way towards healing the racial rift caused by black democrats, the LMS and the Obama administration.

Reparations will also prevent more global warming.

Actually, I am ALL FOR Reparations.

However (sly grin), I have a hitch or two. It would be 40 acres of land for every man, woman, and child of color. But it would be (here's the hitch) FEDERAL LAND.

MuhuhuHUHAHAHHAHHAHAH!!!!

“Reparations Could Prevent the Next Ferguson,” said rising young comic Belinda “funny bone” Cooper at a club last night.

“Financial reparations are in fact the most direct way to compensate victims for past suffering.”

Actually, this could be a VERY good idea!

First, close and lock the boarders.

Second, reparations included a one way ticket to anywhere and renouncing of American citizenship.

In many cases, when viewed over a life time, the reparations could be close to a million bucks and we’d still come out ahead!

My bet - no one takes it.

Each generation would want theirs too.

To be honest, if this country started doing this out in the open, I think I will have to leave it. The irony is, if we are forced to pay reparations we would essentially be slaves to them.

The U.S. government and society need to recognize the direct connections between continuing racial disparities in this country and the wrongs that gave rise to them. ...

Never accept the premises of the mentally handicapped.
No matter how schooled or how old they are.

In 1890 the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR), the gallant men who freed the slaves, told the reparations crowd to get lost because the debt had been paid in full. For four years the Union Army lost an average of 77 men a day, every day for a total of 112,400 men and these are ONLY combat deaths.
Blacks were doing well in America until Woodrow Wilson resegragated America starting with Washington DC.

Or they could leave this country for any country in Africa, where Blacks are in total control. What they shouldn’t expect is more free money.The taxpayers have poured $16 trillion into LBJ’s War on Poverty rat hole to buy Democrat votes, and they are still whining that they can’t make it in America. Time to go somewhere where they will be satisfied.

They get reparation everyday they are on welfare, use food stamps, dial Obamaphones, take free cheese take free healthcare. My taxes have been funding some folk be lazy and shiftless since my first job on the books in the mid 1960s.
