A House Judiciary subcommittee will hold hearings on reparations next Wednesday, marking the first time in more than a decade that the House will discuss potentially compensating the descendants of slaves.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Vote buying.

[Rocko Jack]

Not Even One Republican owned a slave.
Not Even One

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I believe all former slaves who are still alive should receive reparations.

[Don Corleone]

The HoR is a giant waste of space in most cases. In this case for certain.

[eyeamok]

Maybe we should hold the Groups and Organizations responsible for Slavery accountable,instead of everyone? They are still around today and call themselves Democrats.

[albie]

Thanks to public schools and universities, very few know the history of slavery. Virtually everyone has a slave somewhere in their lineage.

[rktman]

Uh, for glbtqxyzr clowns or kin of possible slaves.

[rhombus10]

Reparations is institutional racism.

[lastchance]

And the “religion of peace.” Must not forget them.

[Brilliant]

The Democratic Party should pay the reparations.

[Pravious]

I’m self-identifying as a former slave.

Where do I sign up?

[NewJerseyJoe]

Can't wait for the Democrats to try bringing back miscegenation "science" to determine who, today, has enough drops of "slave blood" to quality for these "reparations."

There won't be enough popcorn in the world.

[rhubarbk]

I can agree with that, but that’s where it ends!!!

[RideForever]

I think it only fair the black community pay reparations to the soldiers who fought and died to procure their ancestors’ freedom from slavery. We should at least get credit against Pelosi’s Party of Plunder and Prevarication for those Abolishinists who died, and the Democrats get credit for the Ku Klux Klan they fomented after the Civil War.

[Innovative]

Total insanity.

[Bommer]

Sorry but totally disagree. We should have reperatioms. A first class 1way ticket anywhere in the world they want to live as long as they sign a paper to renounce their citizenship and vow.never to return under any circumstances. Oh and $500 which would be triple the 2 acres and a mule back in 1867. Screw The inflation adjustment.

[Old Yeller]

Yep, all it is, is vote buying.

Woodson Center founder and president Bob Woodson criticized the concept of (slavery reparations), calling it “fools gold” that will do nothing to help the black community in the long run.

Well it apparently means that if your campaign is asking Al Sharpton for money, you must first show obeisance to the Rev and his "Plantation for Reparations" like all good little liberals.....

[Leaning Right]

I'm not Irish. But if blacks get reparations, Irish-Americans should get at least a small piece of the pie. Fair is fair.

And give the Italian-Americans a slice as well.
