Affirmative Action

[Delta4Embassy]

Reparations WERE in fact issued but then recinded by some racist fucknut. So here we are over a hundred years later still talking about when it could have been done with before any of us were born.

Wanna leave a legacy for your kids, pay your bills. Or think of it this way, it's in the BIble.

That a man should fulfill whatever he has uttered (Deut. 23:24)

Attempt to pay reparations was done but welched on. Time to unwelch and pay our debts.

 

[Lonestar_logic]

What do "we" owe those people? Who is "we?"

Blacks in the United States are better off than blacks in Africa, or in any black majority, black run country in the world. American blacks benefit from living in a civilization incomparably superior to anything they have been able to create on their own, and anything they have been able to maintain when it was given to them.

Whites in the United States are not better off because of the black population. We are worse off. We would be better off if they left. To begin with, and most obviously the crime rate would go way down. The cost of our criminal justice system would go down.

"We" are not holding down blacks. "We" are lifting them up. The weight is getting hard to bear.

We have what we have partially due to slave labor. We never paid for that labor to receive the benefits we did. Not proposing we had out checks but could pay what we owe via tax discounts, free tuition, and the like. Isn't without precedent. Paid reparations to WWII Japanese for the internment camps.

Think of all of the lost labor productivity from the men who were killed and maimed in the Civil War. The nation LOST a lot of wealth in order to free slaves. Reparations were repaid multiple times over.

Census - 1860:
Total Number of Slaves = 3,950,528
Free Colored Persons = 476,748

Casualties of the Civil War = 620,000 The number of men who were maimed is incalculable. As it stand, one white man traded his life to free 7 slaves/free colored. That's a VERY STEEP price to pay for strangers.

None of that wealth went to Black people moron. If you dont know what reparations means look it up instead of embarrassing yourself.

Blacks are an ongoing NET LOSS to American society. There's the reparation - it's an annual tax on the nation's wealth and well-being.

I knew you were stupid but this takes the cake.

reparation
1.
the making of amends for a wrong one has done, by paying money to or otherwise helping those who have been wronged.

There is nothing in American history that has been done to pay money or help those wronged by slavery.

And there never will be.

You have more faith that I do. Even though it makes sense, lots of whites are dead set against it. Admitting their ancestors either directly owned slaves or encouraged the ownership of slaves through apathy or outright support would force them to face the fact that Blacks are their equals and primarily responsible for building this country. What would whites have to be deluded about if they admitted this?

Mirroring its reparations recommendation after those given to Black survivors and descendants of the Rosewood, Fla. race riot of 1923, the 11-member Commission, made up of seven Blacks and six whites, voted 10 to 1 for direct payment of reparations to survivors, the creation of school scholarship funds and the establishment of economic enterprise zones.

13 years later and still no reparations.

President President Barack Obama 2014 Reparations Act for Negro

Will President Obama Give In to Slavery Reparations

"A group called the Los Angeles Reparations NOW-Promissory Note Coalition seeks to get President Obama’s attention by an open letter which invokes Dr. Martin Luther Kings’s speech in 1963. The letter says in part: “Being the First African-American or Black-adopted ‘son of the slaves’ in the White House as the Chief Executive of this nation, you can, after your inauguration, immediately by Executive Order implement the mechanism that will complete the unfinished business of all Congressional Civil Rights Acts, including Reparations, that the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called the Promissory Note."
