Then on ABC World News Tonight last night, Carole "Jennings" Simpson reported that 100 million slaves were thrown overboard during the slave trade. This is what Rep. Major Owens (D-NY) claimed last year, except he said 200 million were thrown overboard and that this genocide changed the ecology of the ocean so much that the sharks still swim the slave routes.
Slavery in America was finally brought to a halt in the 1860s as the result of a tumultuous Civil War that cost the lives of over 600,000 men from both North and South. Coincidentally, the combined total of soldiers from the Union and the Confederacy who were killed during the Civil War is roughly equal to the number of slaves imported from Africa to the United States (although there were nearly twice as many casualties on the Union side as there were on the side of the Confederacy.

I'm sure he's referring to the nuclear-powered sharks who've swum 130 years without refueling.
Now let's get to the math. 1 ship took an average of 2 months to get from America to Africa. They would go to Africa, trade with the African Chieftans, and then head back, taking another 2 months. So that's 4 months. Three trips a year, let's say bringing in maybe 200 slaves a year. It would take literally 10,000 clipper ships 50 years to carry that many slaves. What was the population of America at the time? What was the population of Africa at the time? You see, it is impossible that 100 million Africans were killed at sea, or tossed overboard. No way possible at all. How many ships on the average were lost at sea? How many people could afford to build ships like that? These numbers are totally fraudulent. It's a scam pure and simple.
I want reparations for my ancestors who were wiped out by the white european settlers. I want reparations for my people who were brutalized by slaves, and other immigrants as well. I want reparations for having my intelligence insulted by lazy unproductive people who have been a dependent of mine since I started paying taxes. I want government to be honest, and therefore deserve reparations for that too.
There is nothing worse than a lawyer who sees a goldmine. If this goes through I'm leaving for Scotland. I will not be victimized by a race of people whose own people sold them into slavery, and whose home country is still a 3rd world toilet because that's all they know. Screw political correctness. If I wasn't a racist before, I will be if this goes through. I will be one of the most outspoken racists of my generation for the lie that is being perpetrated against me, and the rest of the non-black population. If they get this reparation thing passed, I pray to God that they are also shipped back to their homeland with their wealth, because apparently America has given them a raw deal.
Nothing is more foul than having to eat a crap sandwich, especially when you don't have any bread.
