“West (by God) Virginia”

That’s what my mom called it, except she just said ‘West By God’ and assumed everyone she met knew what she meant!

Yeah this would be GREAT.

Any real amount would have to be in the hundreds of billions.

Americans of central and south american descent won’t be thrilled.

People come into this country as immigrants, start a business, and become prosperous. The only thing holding Blacks back is their self-perception, forced on them by leftist policies such as affirmative action.
There is no reason why anyone should be forced to give them money to validate their failures.

Yes, there are so many half black, half whites now that they would be spinning like tops, paying and receiving. Isn’t it funny that anyone who has even five percent “African American” dna now calls himself black. I saw one on TV claiming to be the “first black” person to do something and he looked as white as I am and I look like a Swede.

Partner, this is the biggest losing proposed legislation by the DemonRat party! The DemonRat party always comes up with the looniest ideas.

I totally agree with this 100%. All democrats should pay reparations since Democrats are the ones who owned slaves, and it should NOT come from taxpayer money. The Union fought to end slavery. Democrats formed the Confederacy, so either the Confederacy still has money laying around or Democrats should just pony up out of their own pockets, keep the Union out of it. We should start a movement, come on let’s us join Fauxcahontas and Kamalatoe “Democrats! Pay up now!”

Show me a person still alive from about 1865 who actually was a slave, and I will support THEM getting 40 acres & a mule.

However, as they won’t know what to do with the mule to keep it viable, they can sell the 40 acres to pay for the lawsuit for failing to properly take care of the mule.
