black America is in the warm and cozy pocket of liberal socialism.
What do blacks in Africa do? Kill each other. What do they do here? Kill each other. It seems way too many blacks are so hopelessly caught up in this victimazation crap if you give them anything more it will only lead to griping about getting more. Whatever we give they'll destroy anyway.
To: Retired Chemist
From my perspective, the grandson of immigrants, the blacks in the US like that googly eyed moron, already HAVE, yes HAVE, the Inner cities of MOST cities in the US.
They run them! Look around! Coleman Young OWNED Deetroit...but what happened there?
Pathetic. This argument is what BOR should use from now on. It's so simple. But Mr. Twenny Dollar Whore Marble Mouth is so above it all.

I know they used to pay people to move to Alaska - I'm not sure if they do any more, but I doubt the government cares too much about frozen tundra. They can get their 40 acres there, I suppose, but it'll be rather hard to find a mule up there.
To: MissAmericanPie
They were never given 40 acres and a mule. At some point, it was drawn up that slaves would be given this, however, it never materialised because people were capabable of dealing with liberating slaves (they could still get cheap labor), but giving away land was a no-no.
To: Retired Chemist
40 acres and a mule, huh? Seems I heard that somewhere before.

I thought that the current system of welfare and social benefits was reparations for those in need.
Some people are so dang greedy.

Good. Give them Alaska, with the provision that they all move there.

I might be wrong, but I seem to recall learning in a history class somewhere that the country of Liberia in Africa was formed from land purchased by the United States. It was then given to former slaves from the U.S. If I recall correctly, anyone who wanted to go was sent. So, if that is true, we already GAVE them what they wanted.
I have no problem with extending that offer to any decendant of a slave who requests to go. Of course, there should be no provision for backing out once they get there and find out what a hellhole it has become.

Yeah, that's it.....wasn't it Abraham Lincoln who promised "40 acres & a mule"??? The feds illegaly control millions of national forest & BLM acres out West, so maybe that could be the "reparations" they deserve
To: Retired Chemist
As much as I'd like to crack a joke (which I will probably do here in a few more replies) I must point out that this person is not even remotely close to being a spokesperson for African-Americans. So to make fun of African-Americans as a whole for a comment that 2 or 3 might agree with is wrong. But then again if you are making fun of the idea in general, I say let the comments fly.

OH LOOK IT WAS ALL STARTED BY A DEMORAT AND CLINTON BOY!Congressman John Conyers D-Michigan. Who started a reparations bill back in 1989.
