My late Dad thought it would be a great idea. He reasoned that if we gave everyone of them 100k we would get it all back in less than a year because they would blow it on shoes,jewelry,cars,dope,and booze and other worthless shit. Just do it and then we will be rid of the whining. View Quote Nope, it would back back in swing a year later because they weren't given enough. |

Well, part of my ancestors were plantation owners, and part of them were indentured servants. I'll just go ahead and pay myself and be done with it.

I am 100% in favor reparations for people who have been enslaved under an unjust legal regime, such as the Confederate States.
|
|
I am all in favor.
Reparations for any person of color that insists on it in the form of a one-way boat ticket (steerage) to Liberia. |
|
I'd be ok with it. Based on how long they were a slave. One time cash payment and no more free shit ever. Your on your own after that.
You and your kids. Oh and minus all the amount of free shit deducted from the total. Then send them back to country of origin. |

My family once owned slaves to work one of Pennsylvania's notorious cotton plantations. I'll pay because I feel guilty.

Wrong. Slave ships were still coming to the U.S. right up to the beginning of the civil war and were mostly likely being brought in from the carribian in small numbers during the war. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clotilde_(slave_ship) View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

I would be willing to vote for a measure to repatriate anyone that feels deserving. The measure would buy them a one-way ticket to Africa. Once they got off the plane, they would turn in their passport. View Quote LOL, Passport. Passports are racist and are only an attempt to keep poor Black folk from voting. |

This is a financially stupid idea on the part of Americans with partially and vastly diluted African decent. You want reparations? ....fine, lets start doing the math.
Here's your reparations: now....lets start subtracting what you have been paid already. Free Dental Free Medical Free Housing and reduced housing loans Free Food (this shall include the cash variant of the EBT card.) Any and all food stamps that you or your family have received since 1933 inception. Free Electronic devices Free Legal Free Utilities Free Transportation Free Education...including all Pell grants , and Ad Council funding of the NAACP Free Clothing WIC payouts SSI payouts Incarceration Costs: including all costs thereof: litigation, housing , med, dental, legal, psychological evals, added costs of additional guards and their salaries, etc. Cash equivalent of EEOC and its entire budget since 02 JUL65 After close calculation, this amounts to .....every American with African decent owing the Federal government $5734.24 So, yeah....I'm good with reparations. |

no body ever gave me 40 acres and a mule or anything for that matter. FUK EM!
like others have said, if its so bad here i would be happy to buy you a 1 way ticket to Africa. |

Slavery was the best thing to happen to modern blacks.
Had their ancestors not been slaves, they would still be in africa. Yup, I said it. The blacks of today should thank those slave traders. Its the reality, deal with it. |

Feasibility of decree alone should kill any lawsuit on reparations for slavery.
It would take extensive genealogy to determine what percent black a person is as well as percentage of slave in their blood. How soon were they emancipated? 1780? 1800? 1820? 1840? What if their owner was black? How much reduction? Sorry, we don't have the resources. Sorry, we don't have the money. In case the libturds haven't noticed, the nation is broke. Most of all, there was a Civil War over and the price of freedom was the effusion of plenty of white blood (as well as blood of other races). |

I'm assuming the ancestors of Union soldiers who died in that war will also be receiving reparations, right?

So will the reparations be split between evil slave owning US whitey and the Blacks from Ghana who exported the slaves by the thousands? Or is it just wrong to mention that slavery was not possible wiithout blacks being the middle man and the catchers...
|

Ha. It's the exact opposite. It's blacks who owe whites reparations, not the other way around.

I have a few questions about this. Most blacks are not 100% black. Most blacks in the USA are now, as a result of interbreeding, part white. So how will reparations work if someone is 1/2 white and 1/2 black? Will the white 1/2 owe the black 1/2 in which case it cancels out and this person pays nothing and gets nothing? Does a white person that is 10% black get a 10% reductions in Reparations they have to pay? And how exactly will we determine how "black" someone is? Will everyone need to get their DNA tested? Will blacks have to pay restitution to American Indiians? And what about the slaves that got here the week before the Civil war ended that were only a slave for a week? Do they still get full reparations? And what about Northerners that had an ancestor that died fighting to free the slaves. Do they get reparations too? The questions are mind boggling. http://djicelj.people.msnbc.com/_news/2015/03/19/31179745-the-case-for-reparations-the-atlantic View Quote My people wore blue. 300,000 of their fellow soldiers paid reparations up front. |

This is new Americka.
Every white is a former slave owner,every black is a former slave,every Asian is a ninja Fuck them. |

If reparations are paid to blacks, what will they have to be outraged at next?
I doubt the racist democrats want to give up this quest for justice so soon. They've been milking this for years. |

Dump a truckload of cotton in their front yards. If they want reparations they can sell it.

If reparations happen, I am going to claim the black former slave ancestry I've been hiding all these years.
Mooovin on up... |

What if your ancestors came here after the CW and never owned slaves?

Send the bill directly to liberals like Ben Affleck and Katie Couric, they are rich and are direct decendents from slave owning families; e.g. THEY GOT OLD MONEY!

In April of 1865, a Slave had true value, and that value was held by the slave owners.
December 18, 1865, that value, that capital, that worth was removed from the slave owners by force of government and turned directly over to the newly freed slaves. The slaves received their reparations as soon as the 13th Amendment was ratified. That debt was paid |
