Democrats and reparations....the truth about slavery....

[Asclepias]

The legal discovery that would accompany any slave reparations trial would have and make public that the Ottoman Empire kept “slave armies.” Note that we are now talking about Muslims or the ancestors of Muslims being responsible for not only the beginnings of slavery

What a moron, slavery was around thousands of years before Islam was created...

I'm pretty sure the Old testament had rules for slavery. Which would be odd if it wasn't invented until the Muslims showed up millenia later.

Perhaps the Hebrews had a delorian. Or a blue police box.

No slavery is actually condoned in the OT.

 

[Syriusly]

Yeah...the democrats keep bitching about reparations for slavery for people who were never slaves in order to punish people who never owned slaves.....

this article points out why they should be careful what they ask for...because the truth about slavery is not what the democrats want....

Blog: Why we should welcome a real trial about slave reparations

You and the author of the blog are a couple of dumbasses. Someone should do a biopsy to discover the source of such rambling stupidity.

Do you deny that the democrat party was the party of the slave owners....

Why would we deny that the Democratic Party was the party of the Confederate slave states?

Which is why all of the people waving the Stars and Bars today are all Democrats.......

Can't be. I distinctly remember reading 'Muslims being responsible for not only the beginnings of slavery'.

And the OT came long before Muslims did.

So....Hebrews going 88mph was it?

Paul in the New Testament told slaves to obey their owners- that was a popular quote among the slave owners of the Confederacy.

Do you deny that the democrat party was the party of the slave owners...who fought to keep slaves, fought to bring slaves into the new states, and fought to re open the slave trade with Africa....or that muslims were some of the greatest slave owners in the world.....and that slavery still exists in Africa as well as several muslim countries.....

you are the stupid one.......

Dear 2aguy and Asclepias
Not to worry. I have a copy of a speech given at TSU in Houston about the Democrat Party and history of Jim Crow laws and civil rights oppresssion. And one of my neighbors who finished his PhD in African American Political Studies published his book on our historic district of Freedmen's Town where all the Black politics is documented that basically amounts to genocide against poor Blacks.

He nearly got kicked out of the university because he mentioned Sheila Jackson Lee in unfavorable terms, and her husband holds a position among the regents or trustees of UH.

I wrote a tribute to him in my song lyrics about taking the campus plans developed in Freedmen's Town
and applying that model to replacing sweatshops and prison labor with legitimate work study programs.

Asclepias no need to get defensive.
It is well established how the liberal politicians have bought and sold the Black race card for votes.
Everyone knows this inside and outside the party. All the Black activists know how Blacks have been sold down the river, and just disagree on which people to blame more for it, the victims or the victimizers.
It's like incest going on in the family, where people go to all extremes to make it someone else's responsiibility to deal with.

As all this bad karmic cycle comes to an end,
then there can be healing and restoration on a fuller level instead of this superficial talk.
Blaming some other group for the problems is not the same as fixing them.

I'm confident the Black leadership in this country will finally get fed up of being divided and conquered,
they will unite out of pure necessity, organize their resources and invest in their own programs
aside from a political system that just keeps tracks of points based on who slams who in the media.
Again that doesn't solve anything, but makes millions if not billions for the media on election campaigns.
As long as people profit off the conflict and division,
this detracts attention and resources that could go into developing longterm business plans
for creating an independent base for African American entrepreneurs, leaders and educators.
I think that is where this is heading, since the blame game is a dead end. And people will tire of
getting nowhere with that. Out of pure necessity, and inability to afford any more waste, things will change.
People will unite and get it right. Not to worry, it will happen soon at the rate things are either
escalating upward or crashing downward. Change is in the air, the plate tectonics are shifting....

 

[Syriusly]

Its another 2aguy bitter old white dude thread with wild ass claims he can't back up.

Oh wait- White people are saying that they are paying reparations!

Its in WND- and if you can't trust WND- well then you can't believe Elvis is still alive...

Yet not all blacks vote for democrats running for office....There are black repubs, non-voters.....Welfare is the same through GOP administrations as the are during democratic ones....
You have the same fallacy of logic like a right winger about race cards, and the fact that both sides play the same game, whether it's subtle or outspoken...

Do democrats keep bitching about reparations? I'd like you to substantiate that claim. Name some names.

I think nutbags keep bitching about reparations....because nutbags cannot help themselves. They must be victims.

. It's now being called "wealth redistribution" right ? It is being orchestrated in a very unique politically correct way, otherwise so that it is being done in a very careful suttle way as to not be to blatantly in your face like it once was being called for in the
so called reparations that were wanted a good while back.

Exodus 21

You do realize the slave owners here in the US used the bible to brainwash the enslaved into being compliant dont you?

And the abolitionists used the bible to free the blacks....the slave owners who used the bible to justify keeping slaves....were democrats....the abolitionists using the bible to free the slaves....republicans...

 

[2aguy]

Here you go...let's look at slavery and the bible....shall we....

What Does the Bible Say About Slavery?

First, the Bible never condones it. It recognizes slavery as a fact of life in the ancient world (a very fallen and sinful world), and it restricts and regulates it. But the Bible never presents slavery as (a) the best of all possible worlds, and (b) something permanent from now until doomsday.

The Law of Moses begins with the Ten Commandments in Exodus 20. From the get-go in verse 2 Yahweh calls Himself the God who brought Israel up out of slavery. So, God identifies Himself as the One who desires liberty for His people.

The Law in the Old Testament set up a code that made Israel distinct from all other nations regarding slavery.

For example, in Israel slaves had rights.

And their slavery did not have to be permanent. Some people sold themselves to pay off debts (Leviticus 25:39; Deuteronomy 15:12-17; 2 Kings 4; Nehemiah 5:1-8).

However, all Hebrew slaves had to be set free in the seventh year.

This was more like indentured servitude, nothing like the chattel slavery of the American antebellum South. The spouse and children were to go free also (Exodus 21:3). Slaves who were abused were to be set free (Exodus 21:26-27). A master who murdered his slave would be put to death (Exodus 21:20; 23-25). (In Exodus 21:20 the Hebrew for "punished" is naqam and has the meaning of incurring the death penalty.)

Runaway slaves from other nations (the pagan gentiles) were to be protected and freed, not sent back into slavery (Deuteronomy 23:15-16).

All slaves, whether Jew or gentile, were to be protected from abuse (Leviticus 24:17,22; Exodus 21:20).

If a slave was injured, he was to be paid for his injury and set free (Exodus 21:26-27).

So when Paul told slaves to obey their masters...he knew they would eventually be freed....

And how exactly did those slaves become slaves when Paul was addressing them?

No.

And....the word is subtle.

Why would I deny any of that especially since the Democrats back then were the conservatives of today? I'm just laughing at the jackass that wrote the error filled blog and you for being a dumbass for believing some of the obvious errors in it.

Ahhh...that lie about conservative democrats being American conservatives today....nice try....nice lie.....

The democrats were fighting and killing to conserve the institution of black slavery....

Modern American conservatives are trying to conserve the founding principals of this country...namely, that all men are created equal, endowed by their creator with inalienable rights to life, liberty...you know, lack of being a slave, and the pursuit of happiness.....big difference....and again, nice lie.......

Can you see the difference?

We all know the history and when the dixiecrats switched over to the republican party. The rest of it is moral relativism. Ain't ya'll agin that?

No...actually they didn't....the racists stayed in the democrat party.....the democrats, especially the young ones, who didn't want to obsess with race in every aspect of life became republicans.....

Democrat and conservative are not the same thing Jefferson. One is a political party and one is not.

Thats ok Opi. The Democrats of that time period consisted of the the conservatives of today.

No....that isn't even remotely accurate. Please...do some research....

"Democrats"? Some maybe. I can think of very few who have even discussed the issue of reparations.

Interesting whine though. Would you like some cheese to go with it?
