Now Fulton County, Georgia is signing up for the reparations bandwagon. Crime is out of control and their prosecutor is hell-bent on making herself into a celebrity by being the one to take down President Trump.

The WSJ today has a front-page article today just full of praise for the prosecutor, Fani Willis, and her efforts to take out the former President.

What are the odds, that they perform this study,and the conclusions of the study arr that we should NOT pay reparations for slavery?

It seems pre ordained they will conclude that we should pay reparations for slavery.

Then you go through the whole routine about how much should be paid. Whatever amount is proposed, some activist types will say it’s just not enough, and it’s just a starting point.

"........many would question the need to provide handouts to people
who have never been enslaved, paid for by people who never enslaved anyone”.......

When Africans were brought here as slaves, they did not have names.

When they were freed, they usually took the names of their masters.

When a reparations seeker applies, it'd be relatively easy
to track down the heirs of the masters......and make them pay.

What America is today is not my America. I do not care if the current monstrosity called “Biden’s America” is torn apart.

“...this study will bring on five researchers who will explore if reparations are warranted.”


If the California experience is any guide, it’s a safe bet that all five ‘researchers’ will agree that reparations are most definitely warranted, the only disagreement among them will be on how much is ‘owed’.

I want reparations.

Someone somewhere along the line did something to my ancestors.

Sorry folks. Reparations are necessary and required and long overdue.

We’re just going to have to pay them, financial burden or not.

Who shall we enslave to generate that kind of cash? MAGA republican white supremicist terrorists. 81 million of them.

This is designed to be a wedge issue in 2024 to keep Georgia blue. Fulton County is primarily Atlanta. Wealthy North Fulton should have broken away a long time ago. Geographically they have nothing to do with Atlanta.

The ultimate goal of the Leftist reparations movement is to dish out payments from the federal treasury. No state or municipality can print enough money to do it, but the feds can.

Everyone, no matter their skin color, has had slave ancestors from some point in history. Where’s my reparations?

Thought electing (100+ D votes in many precincts) a black POTUS twice repaid everything.

...and when it all comes tumbling down, after all that money has been wasted, they’ll take no responsibility whatsoever, and there will be no consequences.

Come, Lord Jesus.
