My family didn't get here until 1917 so I guess that means that I don't have to pay anything. Sweet.

In my mind, reparations have been being paid through affirmative action in hiring practices, college admissions and minority business set-asides for decades. One could argue that blacks owe a large bill back to society for the costs of crime and incarceration that is disproportionately represented by blacks.
And don't get me started on all the various welfare/food/housing money the taxpayers have been footing the bill for... |

I firmly believe that every living slave owner should pay a reparations payment of $1M to every single living slave that they owned.
Wait, that's no one? Well shit. |
|
Fine.
But eliminate ALL preferential hiring practices, quotas, "goals" or anything that resembles Affirmative Action. Make such things illegal. You get paid, a one time payment. But then NOTHING. Even Steven from here on out. Let's do it. |

Bitch is worth multiple millions and should also be made to pay reparations to Indians out of her own pocket.

Thats when I get a DNA test, and if I show any Negro blood, then I’m gonna get a check. And I look about as black as Pocahontas looks red.
What will be the measuring stick be to determine “blackness”? Probably your employment record. |

Wonder what cut the dem leaders will get? Will they take over half, just like in other corrupt nations?

My family were Quakers and Mennonites. What is it that I'm supposed to atone for?
Ah, the color of my skin, not the content of my character. Got it. |

But, but, but, but... we already give people stuff. And what about the whites that never owned slaves? ================= Give Them The Benjamin's and Gibs (Free Stuff) "“I love the idea of this congressional commission,” Warren told a crowd at Jackson State, a historically black university. “I believe it’s time to start the national, full-blown conversation about reparations.” "Warren’s endorsement of the reparations commission bill was just one part of her broader pitch Monday night to voters of color, especially African Americans. She called for Mississippi to change its state flag to no longer include the Confederacy’s stars and bars, talked up her housing bill that would give special assistance to formerly redlined communities, and said that white supremacists are as great a national security threat as “any other terrorist group — like ISIS, like al-Qaida.” Warren attempted to combine that appeal with her more familiar economic populism. She criticized oil companies, payday lenders, “giant financial institutions,” and called for the implementation of her “ultra-millionaires tax.” She also received a positive reaction from the crowd when she discussed the role of faith in her life. Warren said she was raised Methodist and referenced the story of the Sheep and The Goats in the book of Matthew. She said a Bible school lesson on the story taught her that “there is God, there is value in every single human being” and that “we are called to action.”" https://www.governorpalin.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/t105-12.png View Quote |

Annnnnd she's done.
Even liberals don't like reparations when they find out theyre the ones paying them. |

What’s the dollar amount per person that also forever ends welfare, section 8, any form of affirmative action and any presumption of European-American guilt?
|

My ancestors didn't have slaves, even the ones that fought on the Confederate side. And even the ones that were confederates were still dead, last time I checked.
So, no. |

The reparations idea got stirred up by the black writer who plays on white guilt, Ta Nehisi Coates, who published an article on reparations in The Atlantic a couple of years ago.
The guilty leftist whites were immediately hooked on the “debate”. Their views on the issue were concerned with assuaging black anger and redistributive justice. After all, blacks built America. Coates made a lot of money off this kind of writing and the speaking gigs. There’s his reparation. |

If I'm not mistaken, the Vikings had a certain, grotesque punishment for people like this.
Odin willing, lets see this come back, and these back stabbers pay. |

None of my direct descendants on my fathers side owned slaves because among other things they were too poor. Some themselves were indentured from my understanding.
On my mothers side...well she immigrated to America... I am white and I owe no person of color (other than my mom who is a person of color and obviously I owe her a ton) |

Guess She never read this book,
They Were White and They Were Slaves: The Untold History of the Enslavement of Whites in Early America 4th Edition by Michael Hoffman. They Were White and They Were Slaves is a thoroughly researched challenge to the conventional historiography of colonial and industrial labor, a stunning journey into a hidden epoch, the slave trade of Whites, hundreds of thousands of whom were kidnapped, chained, whipped and worked to death in the American colonies and during the Industrial Revolution. This is a chronicle that has never been fully told, part of a vital heritage that has until now comprised the dustiest shelf in the darkest corner of suppressed history. https://www.amazon.com/They-Were-White-Slaves-Enslavement/dp/0929903056 |

Flipped over to the local rap radio morning news update yesterday and they immediately called her out for selling empty promises like every politician before her. Called her and all the rest of the candidates used car salesmen. That was all they had to say.

And the identity politics of the left is being ratcheted up another notch.
Our current President, has struck a chord with black voters while the left abandoned them and has really done nothing to improve the lives of the black community. The democratic party has never been the friend of the black voter. |
