And reparations are a solid idea


There is nothing to repair. Life is better here for them..plus 300,000+ died..so they actually owe them.

Will likely be a huge boon to some big corporation that opens a warehouse with minimum wage jobs in a predominantly black community.

But you're not wrong. New York, Hawaii, and California do it regularly.

So the same thing we already are doing and have for decades.


Here's a thought, quit being manipulated by the democratic party.

I am not sure anything can top California trying to get rid of discrimination laws so that they can discriminate against Asians

How this is not a bigger story baffles me

They literally want to legalize discrimination in the progressive paradise

Says it all. These people are pieces of shite.

Stopped in Asheville for lunch earlier this year. Nothing but hippies and homeless people there.



Could have kept driving and stopped somewhere else in the Blue Ridge Bible Belt. That was your mistake.

I lived there for almost 20 years - loved the ambiance and amenities, but... the population (a lot of trust fund liberals) is extremely left - no republicans on the city council. However, the rest of Buncombe County is even whiter and is overwhelming republican.

There’s going to be a lot of folks who just hear “reparations” and will be expecting a check. And when it doesn’t come, there’ll be hell to pay.
