Time for Reparations to the Irish

[Weatherman2020]

During most of the 19th century the lives of black slaves were more important than Irish lives. For example, in the construction of the Crozet tunnel thru the Blue Ridge mountains in the 1850’s black slaves were borrowed to work with Irish immigrants in the dangerous construction.

Because it was dangerous the Irish got the most dangerous jobs. Why? Two black slaves were killed in a railroad accident during construction and the owners were compensated $1,200 each. In 1850 dollars.

All slaves were then removed from the project leaving it all to the Irish. They’re lives were expendable as Irish were pouring into America fleeing starvation in Ireland.

Slavery was institutionalized in the Colonies by the English, the Spanish and every other European country for 200 hundred years. The Confederacy only existed for about 4 years. The last Yankee state to abolish slavery was New Jersey about ten years before the Civil War. The Irish immigrants in the early 1860's were snatched up almost before they left the ship to be used as cannon fodder in the Civil War by the hypocrite North.

The Arab slave trade in North Africa is awesome. So is the Central American slave trade into the US.

Same deal in New Orleans doing very dangerous work building docks/dredging in the river. If a black died the owner gets compensated. So you just get another Irishman off of the boat. Why they rioted there and the draft riots in NYC.

China has a monopoly on rare earth mining because they use slave labor.

Blacks in America really shouldn't be complaining. They had zero percent unemployment prior to 1865

Sorry, ain’t arguing your stupidity
