U.S. owes black people reparations for a history of ‘racial terrorism,’ says U.N. panel
The Washington Compost ^ | September 27, 2016

The history of slavery in the United States justifies reparations for African Americans, argues a recent report by a U.N.-affiliated group based in Geneva.

This conclusion was part of a study by the United Nations' Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent, a body that reports to the international organization's High Commissioner on Human Rights. The group of experts, which includes leading human rights lawyers from around the world, presented its findings to the United Nations Human Rights Council on Monday, pointing to the continuing link between present injustices and the dark chapters of American history.

"In particular, the legacy of colonial history, enslavement, racial subordination and segregation, racial terrorism and racial inequality in the United States remains a serious challenge, as there has been no real commitment to reparations and to truth and reconciliation for people of African descent," the report stated. "Contemporary police killings and the trauma that they create are reminiscent of the past racial terror of lynching."

Citing the past year's spate of police officers killing unarmed African American men, the panel warned against "impunity for state violence," which has created, in its words, a "human rights crisis" that "must be addressed as a matter of urgency."

I agree. Cut back on the UN stipends. Tell the American people you just reduced out expenditures by $100,000,000. You reduced the UN expense by 1/3. Next? Nato.

Hey, no problem. The amount owed in traffic fines and other penalties cause by diplomats will cover that.

The United States should politely ask the United Nations to relocate outside of the United States.

Obama, Soros and the UN are about to turn Black America into the new Palestinians and BLM into the new PLO

As soon as Trump (if he wins) tries to trim the welfare rolls to sustainable levels, expect to see a BLM American Intifada

Obama has funded ACORN type community organizing groups with billions of taxpayer dollars over the last 8 years to indoctrinate the Black community with anger and hatred just like Yasser Arafat did with the Palestinians when he took over in Israel under Clinton

Obama is angling to be the American Arafat in his post Presidency

I`ve thought for the longest that reparations
would be he who cannot be named final paper signed.

If the Hildabeast wins its a done deed.

Hopefully if Trump wins he’ll kick those leftist assholes out of our country once and for all.

I have already paid for 40 acres and a mule for every living black person I enslaved. Being generous, I also paid for the children and grandchildren of any black American enslaved by my parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, or even great-great-grandparents. My debt is paid. Still, in case anyone didn’t think that was enough, I also bought the 40 acres and the mule for every black American who had ever been legally enslaved in the entire United States. The country’s debt is paid. It’s time, as the socialists say, to “Move On”.

It is not their ancestors who are burning the cities. It is them. The Negro community owes white people reparations for modern day terrorism. Some white people and some Negroes once were slaveholders. They are all dead. The violent arsonists are still alive and burning stuff.

More propaganda! Blacks sold their own people. Most of these people were sold to South America. Blacks are 13.2% of the American Population and commit just a shade below 50% of the Murders.

Girls beat elderly woman on NYC subway after she asked them to move feet - turned in by mother
The Daily Mail ^ | June 3, 2016 | Chris Spargo
Posted on 6/4/2016, 12:03:55 PM by heartwood

The two teenage girls who are being accused of beating an elderly woman so severely that she had to be rushed to a New York City hospital have reportedly been turned in to police.
The New York Daily News reports that police are questioning the two suspects, with the first girl being brought in Friday morning by her mother after she recognized her from surveillance photos released by authorities after the attack.
The second suspect was brought in shortly after.
The young women were traveling together on a subway car Thursday afternoon when 78-year-old Norma Trotman reportedly approached the two and asked one of them if she could take her feet off the seat in order to make room for her to sit down.
Then, when Ms. Trotman got off at one of the next stations stops, the two teenagers allegedly followed her onto the subway platform and began to kick and punch her in her head and face before jumping on an approaching train and making their getaway.

Black 17yo Assaults 5yo White Girl on School Bus, School Officials Defend As “Normal”
InformationLiberation ^ | 8/31/2016
Posted on 9/3/2016, 12:02:27 PM by Altura Ct.

A 17-year-old black teenager was caught on tape assaulting a 5-year-old white girl while riding on a school bus in South Carolina.

The teen, Tavon Walters, was on probation at the time of the assault. It’s not clear why he was allowed to ride the bus with a 5-year-old that’s 12 years his junior. Nonetheless, the school’s superintendent Phyllis Schwarting defended Tavon’s actions saying: “The behavior on the bus was not any more abnormal than most buses.”

From Global News:

A five-year-old girl from South Carolina is now scared to ride the school bus after a 17-year-old boy allegedly hit her in the face, said the child’s father.
Terry Peters, the father of five-year-old Jasmine, told NBC affiliate WAGT News, that when he picked up his daughter from the school bus last week he noticed a mark on her face.
“People came out and they began to state to me that she got slapped on the school bus,” said Peters to WAGT. “I’m very upset, I’m mad.”
Surveillance video from the bus appears to show the teen reaching over a school bus seat and using another student’s hand to hit Jasmine on the right side of her face.
“He had reached over that seat and he was telling another girl that ‘if you don’t hit her then I’m going to hit her for you,’” explained Peters.
Author Colin Flaherty highlighted the video on his YouTube channel:
There was a question of whether Tavon caused the girl’s visible injuries as they say the marks were on the opposite side of her face. Police have since said they believe the photo may have been flipped.

Bamberg District superintendent Phyllis Schwarting is going all in trying to claim the girl must have got the hand print shaped mark from somewhere else:

Liz Owens: “This kid has been in trouble at school before no secret, they’re saying he’s on probation, why is it that someone who has a history like that allowed to ride the bus, especially with young students?”

Phyllis Schwarting: “Well, he had not had any bus incidents for one.”

Liz Owens: “So it doesn’t really matter how bad of trouble you get in at school? You could hit a kid at school or have a history of being violent at school as long, as that didn’t happen on the bus, he’s not going to lose his bus privileges?”
Wake up America you are being conned!

“No, the US does not.”

Agree. But, I’m curious how the U.S. government would go about vetting those who claim they’re descendents of slaves. Oh, almost forgot, the government already has a model to go by, same one being used to vett all the Syrins being brought in. Can’t believe I almost forgot about that, sarc/
