50,000 sounds good to me.

Up next - reparations for slavery!
That right there is restitution.
FUBO
Total theft!! This violates violently God’s commandment “Thou shall not steal” Outrageous armed robbery.

I knew the second he was elected he would find a way of giving blacks reparations.
Absolutely full of fraud and... SICKENING to boot.
REPARATIONS have come to America and AMNESTY just passed the House. The American experiment is finished. We’re a banana republic being run by fascists now.
