why do they even need this at all

I'm not for it for any other reason but to cause trouble. I think it's a good way to blow up the system. This is the left's idea of creating racial harmony - make one group of people pay for something they had absolutely nothing to do with.

Burgess Owens , Fox News contributor says the DNC should pay


Saw this.



Well said and well spoken. Laid it at the feet of dems and other SJW types 100%.

Tells the story of his great great grandfather who escaped being a slave and managed to buy 100 acres of land in Texas and paid it off in two years.

Talks about AA business ownership and college graduation rates in the 40,50, and 60's.

"Let's not steal this opportunity from our kids by telling them they cant do it"

great video and worth 5 minutes of your time.

Reprehensive to see. Going backwards instead of forwards.

Politics is the devil as a whole. Not republican or democrat dumb fricks. Government is a necessary evil to civilization: just add ambitious people.

Such a waste of time. It's just some purity test to show how much they support reparations. Lunatics.

Slavery was an abhorrent thing, a scar on our nation’s history
Stop with this shite. Nearly every society in the earth’s history have been slavers in one form or another; nearly every group of people have at some point been enslaved as well.

It is part of history - we weren’t the first nor the last - and as such there’s no way to apply our modern morals to it. It was simply the status quo. I’m neither proud nor ashamed of it, and neither should any other American.

I think Black Americans should pay whites reparations. Without slavery they would still be living in a third world shithole and USA demographics would be.....um to say nicely. A little different.

Why were their ancestors not "woke enough" to be captured by African Kings and sold.

African kings are the root stain of slavery. No one told the African kings they had to sell their own subjects into slavery or else.

The Dems know a White Male will win the nomination, so they have to mobilize the black vote. What easier way to do this than talk about handing out free money. I think reparations will never happen, but there are many blacks that will believe the BS and turnout to vote for a White Man!

And their Benedict Arnold is Sheila Jackson-lee

Has anyone given any actual number on what they think should be given to each slave?

None of this "we'll have the government pay it"

I want all white people to feel this in the most personal way possible.


No problemo, I identify as a black man. Can't wait to get my check but I'll opt for the cash option and forgo the installments.

I'm guessing it may be impossible to fit a suit to Humpty Dumpty.

Every Democrat in the House, including the "moderates," will vote to move this bad piece of divisive legislation on to the Senate.

Actually, their ancestors would've probably been eaten by the same people who sold them in the slavery.

I would literally kill 100s if your wish came true.

My family came to north America before the first black was ever here.
They never owned a single slave.
They fought and died for the North.

I'm 57 and have paid for the bullshite great society my whole working life.

You assholes make me pay reparations too, and I will go out killing people.

Given what happened to Japanese Americans in WW2, you KNOW they're just sitting back, waiting to see how this plays out.
