....First, I strongly believe, and I think it is very defensible, that every black person who lives in the U.S. today should be thankful because of the slave trade of the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries. Note, I did not say it was a "good thing" or that hey should "support slavery". I am alleging that, in my opinion, they are better off today, being born by a fluke of nature in the U.S., than if their ancestors had not been brought here in shackles. OH... LAWDY... LORRRD-DEY!!!!! well, I suppose you could just call them a curse and be done with it... 'cause they are, they sure are, Gawds OTHER little chosen grifters...

They have been getting "mo' money" from me since Lyndon Johnson's Great Society circa 1965, and as far as I can see, during that 55 years they have not used my money wisely. It brings a whole new meaning to, "I din' do nuffin".
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

Why don't those spooks go after the Portuguese first? Portugal brought 12 times as many African slaves to the new world than the English did.
I am decendent of the first white settlers in this country, and to any knowledge in the family history, we never had anyone who owned even ONE slave...
We ought to demand that black people owe white people, with interest... the cost of transporting their ancesters here and then room and board up until 1865...
That is no more ridiculous than what Maxine Waters and Shelia Jackson Lee are demanding....

Air drop arms and ammo into Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, and Baltimore. That's the reparations I'm in favor of. Add Milwaukee to the list.
