And who exactly should fit the bill for these "reparations"? White people who had NOTHING to do with slavery, but their great great great great grandparents did?

Who? American taxpayers minus the descendants. I mean I had/have nothing to do with the land settlement / payments to native Americans earlier this decade. I contribute to it and we all do. Don't see u bitching about that.

Again, Great great great g paw shouldn't have left this burden to his descendants.

maybe you should start a movement about it.
post about on your social media with the standard BLM hastags for likes.
whine about it on message boards.
then never have anyone of actual stature support said movement and/or suggest a real solution, besides "we want our reparations for the suffrage our greatX4 grandfather faced"

So a modern day black man is going to agree with this logic when someone demands reparations for the wildabeast thigh his great, great, great, great grandpa stole back in the day from the neighboring tribe?

By this logic we should cut all entitlements and stop growing the national debt because, shucks, our descendants will have a mess on their hands with an extraorbinant debt to repay.

How black do you have to be to get these reparations? If a guy looks white, but his great, great, great grandpa was black, does he get them? Does Mike Tirico get them for looking black even though he claims to be white?
