Where is his movement justified and that black one isn't?

Well you have factual evidence of houses, whole cities even, being razed to the ground by men that were not following international rules of war as you know DiLorenzo points out. Men who devastated entire regions of the South killing in cold blood whereas in the reparations movement you have a 'Black Holocaust' that you and I well know is virtually impossible. 150 million people died in less than 400 years? 100 million in ships coming over here alone? The numbers are outrageous. And God forbid any of these kind folk like Malik Shabizz do ancestral research just to find out some of their own black ancestors were among the largest slaveowners in the South.

Point being, the Southern reparations movement points out specific actions and has a specific defendant. the entire union army. The slavery reparations movement has an everchanging defendant. Sometimes it's the US government, other times it's the nations of Europe, other times it's folks like myself that are flying the true flag of freedom. What I want to know is why don't they go after the descendants of the men who sold them into slavery? You know, the tribes of Africa that sold their enemies and are now in power in places like Zimbabwe, where they're chasing white farmers out of the nation

Even if I were to assume that all that DiLorenzo and you claim is true, why should I pay for it? I didn't burn down their houses or their cities? One side of my family wasn't even here then. The other side had members killed by Isham Harris's men. Why should I pay?

Why should I pay you? It wasn't your house that was burned or your slaves that were freed. You personally suffered no harm at all from a property stand point. Not a dime out of pocket. Where do you deserve reparations?

If the southern reparations movement has a specific defendant then go collect from the Union army. Did up Sherman and Grant and take them to court. Take what you get from them and give it to every single living southerner who personally suffered material damages from the actions of the Union army. You know, the same kind of offer made on all these black reparations posts. Until you can agree to that then DiLusional's reparations cause is just as phony and just as bogus as N'Cobra's. And until you can show a better reason than N'Cobra can I'll have to assume you support their cause, too.

There you go again, muddying up their issue with facts. When will you ever learn? < /sarcasm >
