"What do we want?" someone shouted.

"Reparations," the crowd responded.

"When do we want them?" he asked.

"Now!"


What do we say?

Go to hell!

When?

Now!

Did the kali-fornia taxpayers get raped to pay for this? Rhetorical. Of course they did.

They reported that they were unable to find anyone that experienced slavery, nor could they find anyone guilty of owning slaves. Therefore, they concluded no reparations were not justified.

No matter what the amount - and I've read demands of trillions...it will never be enough.

I support reparations for all surviving former slaves.

The discussion about ‘descendants’ is an IQ test...

And I’ll be frank: The never-ending payout for ‘native Americans’/’indigenous peoples’ BS must come to an end, especially now that they’re cashing in on casinos, etc.

Grant reparations, but not one cent to historic slaveowners.

Recipients must leave for permanent residence in Africa.

And after the second year the black racists finished the phase that they had done and they rested.

Their declared their con job shakedown “Good.”
And “Very good.”

Threats and guilt they created.

They blessed the loot they had grabbed.

And they went on to take more money from their hated enemies.

They can have their reperayshuns when we get our reperayshuns because of North African Barbary pirates enslaving white people.

Democrats in Sacramento, including Newsom, are TERRIFIED a Reparations bill will land on the floor of the Assembly and Senate.

Its a vote none of them wants to cast.

Hey white boys. Which one of you has the balls to tell them all to go to hell? No one here. Politicians? Too cowardly. Me? I’d do it but I have too much respect for my teeth. Maybe when I’m near the end. Trump’s not afraid to stick his neck out but on this (go-for-the-bait) issue?

You know what that means? The republicans should ‘support’ it. Nothing to lose. Put it on Newsom. He’s got bigger fish to fry. Heh heh.

No need to. By hook or crook, the Dems have a super majority in both the Senate and Assembly (and, of course, the Executive branch). No republican should vote for this travesty.
Let the Dems choke on it.
