I don’t agree with reparations...but what do you consider satisfied? Being able to do the same things as everyone else, aka jogging, getting arrested and surviving, etc ?

Or going to a cemetery with your elderly wife ??

If you could somehow, absolutely guarantee me that it would end racism forever, and we as a people would have total peace and harmony, I'd probably go for it.

frick no. I've never had a slave and no one living now was ever a slave

We have been paying reparations for 53 years.

I already pay enough in taxes.

Nope, I didn't do anything wrong.

Yes.
As long as everyone that accepts a reparations check gives up their citizenship and moves to a country that's willing to put up with their bullshite.

You have to be fricking kidding.

If reparations were in the form of giving black people that want to leave their own separate part of the country, then yes. The remaining country would have no diversity departments, no “empowerment communities,” no affirmative action.

I thought those of us who pay taxes already do. Lol

I'd be for sending the bill to anyone who voted for the current mayors of Minneapolis and Louisville.

We should give them land for reservations and allow them to open casinos

What is the "wrong" that reparations are supposed to remedy?
Slavery?
600k plus Americans died to end that.
Jim Crow? Segregation?
Brown decision
Civil Rights Act
Voting Rights Act
Fair Housing Act
Busing
Affirmative Action
Race based college admissions
The reparations have already been paid.
This is extortion

Hell no.
If there is a living person that was a documented slave, then let's take care of them, but of course there is not.
No one else deserves anything, go out and earn your way in life.

America has already had a deca- trillion dollar transfer of wealth from whites to blacks. It’s only made things worse. How about we have The Constitution, Equal Protection under the Law, Individual Liberty and that sort of stuff instead.

OP has clearly never been grocery shopping on the 1st of the month.

I’m writing a check to “random black guy” as we speak.

With as much as we paid in taxes last year, I think that was our reparations payment.
