Maxine, my relatives came here in the 1920s and 1940s, so WHY should I be punished? My grandfather, came from Italy, built 8 homes, worked in the coal mines and LEARNED ENGLISH. He then went to Minnesota , worked in the copper mines, built 10 houses before moving back to Pennsylvania. Should I be punished? I know to you SOCIALISTS, I should be to you morons, but i have one word GFY...

Many in my family were white indentured servants—can I get some money>


The dirty little secret about indentured servants was they were often treated worse than slaves, since their value to the holder of their indenture dropped to zero when their time was up. Slave holders at least had an economic interest in keeping their slaves healthy and fit for work.

There was a zero chance of reparations when the Democrats controlled Congress before. There is a zero chance of it if they regain control in 2018.

Never passed Congress.

Doesn’t matter: the Constitution forbids working corruptions of blood and that’s what has to happen for anyone today to have any financial liability for slavery.

If they can find an actual living freedman to sue his former master, also still living, then they can have at it.

You had a black President, and control of both houses of Congress, but you were too busy passing other crap to introduce reparations. What a moron.

“I need to take back that House so that we can have a majority in that committee.”

Just say it, Maxine ... ‘so I can impeach Trump!’

Enough reparations have been paid already in every conceivable way. Looking at the poor state of White America, I’d say too much was already given.

I believe I have a solution for Rep. Waters:

-Reparations for descendants of slaves prior to and during the American War Between the States will involve the currency of the day and from the losing side.

Hint: There are no living people who were held in slavery, or who are the children of a person held in slavery, while slavery was the law of the land.

Apparently your skin marks your guilt. At least that’s what liberals believe.

The only people that will be left to pay are any rednecks from the South, who probably live in trailer courts. Good luck getting money from them.

Republicans should offer a bill to give blacks reparations, and tax the democrat party, the party of slavery, to pay for it.

“Maxine Waters promises ‘reparations’ if Dems take over in 2020”

Is Maxie concerned about the Rats losing the brain-dead minority vote?
