I guess the blood of 600k+ men and women was not enough................

[Vaquero]

Yes. NY. That bastion of slaver. “ bend down turn around pick a bale of cotton…”. ( yes I know there was some slaves.)

[albie]

That sounds logical. They have plenty of cash.

[MinorityRepublican]

Why? New York was a free state.

[cymbeline]

Money for the illegals, money for the blacks. Ain’t New York somethin’?

Somethin’ headed for nuttin’, or more likely headed for a bailout from the rest of us.

[RedMonqey]

It will give out as much money as California’s commission did.

“It’s not a beautiful story, but indeed it is the truth.”

NOTHING she ever says is true, rather, it’s her warped version of the truth. She’s pitiful, and now she has her writers using words like “indeed” in a desperate attempt to make her show her gravitas?

[jimwatx]

We didn’t have slavery in NY so what is she talking about?

[Telepathic Intruder]

There is still slavery in Asia and Africa. There are no slaves or former slaves here.

[jeffersondem]

“New York state will create a commission tasked with considering reparations . . .”

This may start a debate about the merits of voluntary reparations and voluntary repatriations.

[XRdsRev]

The biggest beneficiaries of slavery in America are the descendants of slaves. They never would have been born if their ancestors had not been brought here originally.

[SaxxonWoods]

I predict hilarity because no matter how much money they intend to hand out, they will be attacked, cursed and told it isn’t enough.

[G Larry]

Ya, cuz New York was such a major slave state.....

[ridesthemiles]

NEW YORK IS IN CONSTANT DEFICIT

NEW YORK did NOT have slaves & plantations

THIS is more TWISTED than anyone can imagine.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

NYC can hire all the laid-off reparations commission people in San Fran.

[piytar]

Oh geez not this again...

[Vaduz]

New York will set up a commission to consider reparations for slavery.

Call 1-800-It’s-Africa

[faithhopecharity]

of all the bullkrap ideas! but this is just more of the communist/progressive program to demoralize, divide, and conquer USA

incidentally, NY was home for several of the leading abolitionists that helped get the slaves freed in the south

[libertylover]

Slavery was a product of the South, the Confederacy,”

He didn't mention the Democrat party. I guess he just forgot.

[RetiredTexasVet]

Too funny. Almost as funny as another non-slave state of California set up a reparations commission... seems NY is behind the eight ball for creative stupidity behind California.
