Actually, I've changed my mind about this--I'm now for reparations. Maybe it will finally shut these people up

It won't --- don't be fooled. This isn't about reparations, really. It is about the poverty pimps continuing to milk the victimhood game for everything they can get. If they ever got reparations, believe me, there would be something else to gripe about and demand payment for. These people believe in transfer of wealth, reparations is just the latest form.

That being said, I, too, have given thought to allowing reparations; but, ONLY if these people never get any government aid again. No more welfare payments, no more quota system (oops, "affirmative action"), no more getting into colleges with lower scores than people who don't get in, etc. However, I know that the "black leadership" would never go for this, so, NO to reparations.
