The answers I have are:
1. There is no basis for reparations. That bill was paid in blood.
2. There is not a contest for who wins the slavery contest. Slavery was, is, and always will be an abomination. Its bad when Arabs do it. Its bad when Africans do it. Its bad when whites do it. I find it curious that I see arguments from otherwise sane sounding people who have turned into five year old debaters who are quick to tell us someone else did it first, and worse.
Like I said, I’m lookin’ for some payback for transport, meals and lodging. Don’t think I had any kind doing any of it but it sure doesn’t stop others from DEMANDING stuff.
