But here is an idea, why don't we take the cost of these riots and their affect on the economy out of the money allocated first...


Problem is they will still riot no matter how is much is paid

The Dave Chapelle Show demonstrated exactly what who happen if reparations were paid:

That’s a tad more than 40 acres and a mule.

Not really. 300k per person, it’s more like a super shitty studio in NYC and some Cash for Uber

A lot rich people spout BS like this in hopes that the SJW will leave them alone. They won't.

Well that's very nice of him...giving $14 Trillion to his fellow African Americans. Maybe we can pitch in a little something, too.

I am sorry that its not 14 trillion $'s, but I am working on a deal for an AR-15, ten 30 round clips and 1000 rounds of ammo for less than $900. I suggest that the good and decent,both black and white, do the same. The communists will be coming to a neighborhood near you in the very near future

He can subtract that out of the 40 trillion that they have already received.

Not sure how Robert Johnson thinks this would work.

As far as I recall, the United States never actually had much to do slavery meaning owning slaves. Although they did rent and lease slaves during the early 1800s, also some contractors used slaves. The slave owners were actually not really the United States government but individual slave owners.

The reparations portion seems to being used as a way around what would be considered a gift, and limit the gift to a racial class which would be unconstitutional.

Robert Johnson should go back to playing blues music.

Is Bob going to pay reparations to the people of Charlotte who saw Bob’s cats flail to one of the worst records in NBA history?

Start a go fund my crack account. Surely Soros and the bleeding heart white guilt liberals will contribute.

He isn't. If he was, he'd be giving his own money away. He's virtue signaling.
