Can we deduct all the freebies they have received over the years?

I only see two real catalysts for any type of civil war, 1) removal of the 2nd amendment or 2) reparations. Either of those would lead to armed rebellion.

Nope frick that, not even then. I'm not responsible for some shite that happened well over a century ago.


Not only are they barking up the wrong tree, they don't know why they're barking and they can't even calculate the treat it would take to make them stop barking.

This is literally people (politicians) pandering to the lowest deliminator, let alone why are mayors discussing something that doesn't involve them? You would think they would have their hands full just running their shite holes.

It will never happen so I don’t care. The day I pay a red fricking cent for reparations is the day they come take it from cold dead hands. I’m not giving my hard earned money so someone can sit on their arse and receive a check to go get some new rims or whatever the frick else it would never wasted on.

Look man I am on your side but where do you think your taxes already go? Only half of America has a job the other half is mooching off of our hard work. They are already doing it just calling it something else.

Folks, it’s going to happen


My opinion has changed 180 degrees on the issue

I have some conditions tho

1.It needs to be open to all
2.There needs to be proof that you were directly impacted by institutional slavery
3.Your payment has to be offset by any amounts you have received from means tested programsf(welfare, snap, disability)

Everyone else can frick off

For all the people saying they will stop taxes how are you going to do this? Are you going to quit your jobs? Go off the grid? That is the problem with us conservatives. We continue to let the democrats screw us and then bitch, but at the end of the day we just take it.

And exactly how the frick would that work? Let’s think of some of the matters that would come up...

1. There are a shite ton of black Americans who’s ancestors arrived here after slavery ended. Will people be required to show proof one of their ancestors was a slave?

2. What about mixed race people? Do they get a smaller check? If so, how much?

3. What about the tens of thousands of people who look 100% white but their DNA shows that they have an African ancestor? What do they get?

One time payment of $30k and a direct flight to any country of their choice if they denounce citizenship.
