I know not whether to laugh or cry.



Still - thank you, Good Sir! ( if referring to this poster. )

[winn dixie]

[oeb11]

Until the government is broke and a marxist jackboot comes down on teh necks of All 'Amerikans'.

obama blamed "the politics of White resistance and resentment" as the reason why he didn't push financial reparations for Black Americans during his presidency.

obama said he believes reparations are "justified" and that "there’s not much question that the wealth… the power of this country was built in significant part — not exclusively, maybe not even the majority of it, but a large portion of it — was built on the backs of slaves."

what was the 15 trillion (or more) dollars since lbj spent on the 'war on poverty" all about?

slavery was had in the united states for a little over 77 years

with the wealth generated by that institution mostly destroyed by civil war and its aftermath

so how is it that the wealth of America today has anything to do with slavery? no it has to do with our constitution and the rule of law and private property rights and free enterprise and capitalism

things the left hates but wants the fruit thereof

"My people" were enslaved by Pharo, brutally appressed and abused by Christian European societies and exterminated by the Nazis.

Where do I apply for compensation?

[oeb11]

ICU - Try al sharpton, jesse jackson, maxine waters, Ilhan Omar, rashida tlaib, the OBLM terrorists, and teh ACLU.
and - of course, Barack Obama on martha's vineyard.

[nevergaveitathought]

icu, there is no question there are more "white" people who are descendants of slaves than there are black people

but that verity just isn't compelling in a world such as ours

An African's take on Black Americans:

[Lucas McCain]

It's impossible to even quantify. Do people even know what their ancestors did when they were slaves? Not all jobs pay the same and are compensated accordingly. To me, it is a silly discussion for black people to want money they never earned while never having to endure the suffering of their ancestors who they don't even know their names... if anyone wants money, go out and earn it yourself. I don't care what race you are, the government is already giving out too many hand outs IMO.

There is no need for this country to become a welfare state like Sweden. I don't want to work my ass off to have people sitting on their asses while I am paying extra in taxes to support their laziness.

I'm black just because I say so how about if I took a DNA test of 23andMe it'll come up with some black in it after all I know my ancestors was slaves back in Europe .
