“but cannot establish a good relationship with the black community when slavery was abolished over 150 years ago?”


The Germans and Japanese always had a tremendous work ethic. The libs made the blacks wallow in dependency.

So is BS thinking that an apology will end all the racial frictions (in which case he's naive)?

Or does he think an apology would inflame racial tensions (in which case he's being cynical)?

My guess is the first, but a lot of people will conclude it's the second.

“We” don’t have to do anything, especially the “we” who were not yet born with ancestors in Europe at the time. I am tired of the socialist, leftests, demoRATS dictating what “we but not me” need to do.

You apologize, Bernie.

My ancestors weren’t here 150 years ago.

Native Americans deserve the first three apologies and reparations. All others get a ticket to go where they can get better treatment.

Yes Bernie, I’m sorry Obama didn’t crush ISIS, the Terrorists who are currently Enslaving Women and Young Girls as Sex Slaves.

Then again Bernie, you did say that Women love to fantasize about being Raped, so it must be a dream come true for those Enslaved Women, right?

No where they tell you their oral history of how the white man ruined their utopian lifestyle and raped and pillaged the earth in their conquest of all things non white.

What’s stopping them from going back to that “utopian” lifestyle?

Again? When will black countries apologize for slavery?

Oh right. Slavery is still legal in black countries.

As I am sure with others here, my family considers the debt paid in blood and in full. Don’t expect anymore.

Slavery is still practiced in parts of Africa. Bernie should begin his apology quest there. And until he does just that, he can STFU.

If whites have to apologize for slavery then blacks should have to thank white folks for not having to live in the 3rd world disease ridden starvation factory that is Africa.

We’ll apologize for slavery when Bernie apologizes for the hundred million dead “scientific socialism” (aka Communism).

A real Dead Head Red, he be.

… Hey Bernie, someone posted a while back that the first slaveowner was a black man. Are blacks going to apologize too?…”

How about this Bernie?

"…In 1860 there were at least six Negroes in Louisiana who owned 65 or more slaves The largest number, 152 slaves, were
owned by the widow C. Richards and her son P.C. Richards, who owned a large sugar cane plantation. Another Negro slave
magnate in Louisiana, with over 100 slaves, was Antoine Dubuclet, a sugar planter whose estate was valued at (in 1860 dollars)
$264,000 . That year, the mean wealth of southern white men was $3,978.

In Charleston, South Carolina in 1860 125 free Negroes owned slaves; six of them owning 10 or more. Of the $1.5 million in
taxable property owned by free Negroes in Charleston, more than $300,000 represented slave holdings. In North Carolina 69
free Negroes were slave owners…."

I apologize for the MILLIONS of 21st CENTURY SLAVES that are presently living under Islamic rule.

I APOLOGIZE for having a government SO PATHETIC that they won’t lift a finger to help them end their nightmares.
