They should start with Egypt.....they can turn over the Pyramids and the land...... to Israel. We’re waiting!
All of that is true. Except look at those cities now. Jackson. Birmingham, Memphis, New Orleans...and tell me that everything that Wallace and his ilk said, hasn’t come true.
Maxine Waters should take Al Sharpton on a big national tour promoting this while campaigning for Democrat candidates and incumbents this fall.
Ummm... NO
I was thinking of free one way shuttles by the major cruise lines. But then I thought of the enormous clean up and repairs those ships would need. It would be worth it.
“Let the Democrats pay reparations.....they are the party of slave owners, slave economics, human trafficking,
“Jim Crow” race oppression, lynch mobs, fire hoses, and generalized race obsession. They committed the crime,
let them make good on it.”
Can you beat that? And the blacks still vote overwhelmingly for their slave masters!
The author is fighting a ‘straw man’. None of the prominent proponents of reparations are advocating direct payments to individuals. They call for these ‘reparations’ to be paid into a fund that would ‘invest’ in improving the lives of blacks and in improving the inner cities. IOW, these reparations would become a giant slush fund for Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and BLM activists.
Buy their citizenship from them. You’ll get ‘x’ amount but you have to leave the country never to return. I wonder how many would take advantage of an offer like that.
The first time this came up was in the 1890s when the GAR an association of Union Army veterans told freed slaves “We gave our reparations on the battlefield go ask the Confederates.”
As sure as night follows day, every time the evil donkey sees some slaves running off their plantation, they start talk about reparations. They must talk reparations to keep stirring up their crazies. Their crazies demand to hear the Democrats say they will force “evil” White Christians to pay reparations for Democrats keeping Black people as slaves for 400 years. They want to use the money they can steal from us to buy Black votes. They are scared of what is happening to the hold they had on Black people.
What about abolishment fighters who lost relatives in the civil war? Also what if the families had to sell of the farm to survive? Are their families going to be compensated?
Since the oppression is SOOOOOOO bad here, I’m sure a better life could be found on the dark continent.
they don’t want to pay anything. They want to force the states that didn’t vote for them, to pay.

During the 1860’s my Slavic ancestors were planting cabbages in central Europe. Chances are I have at least as much slave blood as any American black. So take your reparations and stick them.
