All living slaves should be given reparations.

Funniest (read: only) thing you've ever said.

Where did you first hear it?

I'm all for reparations.

Whatever amount is deemed to be fair...


Minus all administrative fees and inequty from Affirmative Action, minus all welfare payments made to African Americans, minus all law enforcement expenses and court fees that AAs have incurred....


The AAs should have Whitey paid off sometime around 2123.


Bring it on.


But seriously, there are a few parts of the world where subsequent generations are held accountable for the "sins of the father" -- of course, in those places, they sell the "father's" daughters into sexual slavery, they hunt their meals with pointy sticks and rocks, and they'd worship a booger if it was big and scary enough...


but yeah, sure...reparations should be considered "progress"...

The same day the lunatics take over the asylum.


Wan't to have a sequel to the Civil War -- go ahead and put a "skin color tax" on people.

Way to KYOA, reparationists.

No one in my family was here prior to 1926, and if anybody in my family owned slaves from that point on, I'm pretty sure "reparations" would have been the least of their troubles.

Not one dime of my money, directly or through taxes, should go to the meritless money-grubbing of "reparations."

And I'm guessing that the increasing Mexican population of the U.S. will be even less sympathetic to the idea of their tax dollars going to African-Americans...

I believe the most die-hard of reparation supporters want exactly that.

Money AND a trip "HOME".

But it has to be both.

How 'bout instead of reparations, they just get paid for services rendered for 300 years, starting with the slaving companies that shipped them over.

I didn't realize there was a statute of limitations on salary due.

If they were so ineffectual as labourers, why mistreat the ones demanding emancipation?
You'd figure you couldn't get rid of them fast enough. It's not like you had to make sure their pensions were in order...

They worked, pay up.

More like the Dutch and Portugeuse Jews that made a tidy profit off of human misery in the slave shipping biz.

OK - so let's find the slaves who did the work, sit them down with the folks who captured them, sold them into slavery, shipped 'em here, sold 'em again, and then forced them to work.

Oh, wait, that's right...they're all dead...the African slaves, the other Africans who did the capturing and selling, the Arabs, the Portuguese, Spaniards, Brits, etc...

Well, I guess that pretty much takes care of that.

Neither I nor anyone in my family has owned a slave, so get your fingers out of my pocket or paycheck. Oh, and if anyone goes to the idiotic "well, you should still pay since you derive benefits from the slave labor" bullshit, no dice. Considering the technological, economic, and military aid the U.S. has given all over the world at various times, the list of folks who 'derived benefits" has grown exponentially according to that specious argument.

Fuck reparations. It's just another excuse for some folks to try to get money for no effort...

Nazi war criminals were sentenced to death at Nuremburg.

They're dead. Gone.

That didn't keep Israel's hand out of Germany's pocket.
Maybe the African Americans need to convert en masse to Judaism, and play the extortion game with the world.

Their victims weren't.
And apparently their victim's children aren't, either.
