I’m probably okay with reparations. I’m gonna buy stock in Nike and not worry about it.

Yeah! And I require Yankee reparations for the Union Army tearing down all our wooden rail fences and stealing all our livestock off the homeplace .

Will those taxed for it be limited to the descendants of slave owners?

If I self-identify as black, do I get reparations, too?

How about a bill to study reparations to the taxpayers who never owned any slaves, EVER!, and who have had their paychecks raided by shyster politicians and the money given to people who complain that they had been forced to pick cotton but never picked a cotton ball in their life?

Like all the extra taxes we have had to pay since the War on Poverty began isn’t enough reparation?

The bill seeks to “address the fundamental injustice, cruelty, brutality, and inhumanity of slavery in the United States and the 13 American colonies between 1619 and 1865

1619 ? Shouldn't they be suing England ?

Are we going to have reparations for those suffering from the acts of Detroit mayors? Philadelphia city councils? Robert Byrd’s KKK?

It’s MUCH easier to trace the state of blacks today to those people than to anything pre-civil-war.

How are they going to convince 98% of all whites, 99% of all Latinoes, 100% of Asians to pay?

I’ve warned some blacks that they would end up spending their share on protection from the rest of us. It would be the end of Civil rights.

Not to mention that they have already received $20 trillion more in services than they’ve paid out in taxes.

...consider a national apology and proposal for reparations for the institution of slavery, its subsequent de jure and de facto racial and economic discrimination against African-Americans, and the impact of these forces on living African-Americans...

Start by reading this wikiepedia entry, The Great Migration. Then read the companion links at the bottom, the Second Great Migration, and then the final New Great Migration.

There are many causes of black poverty in the United States, as well as cyclical periods of gains and losses.

Send her and SJL back to the Mother Land with a few million other belly-aching ingrates since America is so mean......we owe nothing. That debt was been paid in blood many years ago.

THIS completely nonsensical garbage is what this senile racist ditz spends her time on. Not anything important to the welfare of our country. She has a string sticking out of her butt-—pull it and she rocks back and forth, croaking, “Peach Fohty-Foh!” Time to retire, you croaking old toad.

Not only is she going to pay reparations, but she’s re-introducing a $13 billion bill “Ending Homelessness Act of 2017.”

Talk about delusional. That’s as delusional as thinking that if we quadruple per-student educational spending to $75,000 per year grades will go up 4X.
