More excuses.While I freely proclaim all slave owners were abject scum, I don't see the point of reparations in modern times.

More excuses.
Paying native americans who never suffered the consequences of what was done to them have received reparations. Repeating the same silly meritless claim as you do here is stupid.The point is paying reparations to the people who actually were interned and suffered the consequences of that act is very different than paying them to people who never were a slave.
The Indians were paid for land violations. So based on that maybe we should pay your family for 40 acres and a mule. In 1865 prices. As near as I can tell that’s about 2000 bucks.Excuses. There was harm done after slavery and Native Americans are being given reparations for stuff happening around the same time.
I didn’t ask that. And really don’t care. How much do you think you are owed? Give me a number.Again we have human rights violations that happened way after slaveryy ended.
And I told you that human rights violations occurred after slavery. Since our case is against the government and you are not in congress, the executive or the supreme court, what you want to know is irrelevant. You just need to understand that human rights violations occurred after slavery and that slavery is not the only issue.I didn’t ask that. And really don’t care. How much do you think you are owed?

So about two dollars then. Seems like a lot but you and shaniqua can take your four bucks and get a sympathy shake at McDonalds.And I told you that human rights violations occurred after slavery.

The mule was to be a loan, not a gift.The Indians were paid for land violations. So based on that maybe we should pay your family for 40 acres and a mule. In 1865 prices. As near as I can tell that’s about 2000 bucks.
FDR, Woodrow Wilson and LBJ were the biggest racists.I have never owned a slave. I have never bought or sold anyone. I don't know anyone who has.
I don't know anyone who has been a slave. I don't know of anyone whose parents or gr
abdparents were slaves.
So who is California supposed to be paying reparations to?
I will meet Democrats half way. I totally support paying former slaves and / or their surviving immediate family the 30 acres (or whatever) and a mule they were promised when they were freed.
For every other black American citizen I offer this:
Unlike the Democrats, I promise NEVER to attempt to convince you that you are a VICTIM, that you aren't smart enough or capable enough to succeed on your own, and that you CAN'T succeed without the government doing everything for you and / or paying you reparations for something that ended generations ago.
I also promise not to engage in never-ending race-baiting, racial division, and fear-mongering. I will not ask you for money or especially ask for money then buy a mansion with it.
I will never call you an 'Uncle Tom' when you exercise your right to make your own decisions.
I will not say or do things to attempt to get your vote, will not claim to care about you and your families only at election time. like Democrats do.
I will not, however, agree to give a single minority group of Americans reparations for something neither they nor their families went through. especially when we are $30 trillion in debt.
Asking a Native American or asking Japanese Americans or their parents / grandparents - were put in internment camps during WWII - for some of their hard-working tax dollars to give to people that have been convinced they are victims who are OWED by everyone else is a slap in the face.
So?The US government legalized the importation and ownership of slaves.
There were no slaves in California.There were slaves in the North along with the South. California states that they recognize the wrong done and feels conciliatory to the grievance of redress petition.
Shit for brains, you''ve ALREADY been given reparations. What do you think Affirmative Action is? Ever since 1964 you clowns have been displacing far more qualified Asian candidates, and look what it got us. CRT.Reparations are for more than slavery and we are in this debt because of the very racism you practice.
The opposition to black reparations is based on sheer racist hatred. Precedents have been set as other groups who have been harmed by the government have received reparations. As for the tired worn out excuse of why should I pay for something I did not do, here is a example of reparations made in modern times for things done by past generations:
I am quite sure no one living in 1980 was alive when the U.S. government made the Fort Laramie treaty with the Sioux Nation or were participants in Custers violation of that treaty. Nor were they alive when President Grant decided it was OK to let settlers and people prospecting for gold tresspass into land promised to the Sioux thereby violating the treaty. No one in 1980 was alive when the U.S. government decided to take the land from the Sioux by military force. No one in 1980 was alive when the U.S. government decided to cut off supplies they promised the Sioux as condition for their surrender after whipping the U.S. Army at The Battle of Little Bighorn. But in 1980, the government of the United States decided reparations were due to the Sioux Nation for what was done to them in the 1800’s. They awarded the Sioux nation 105 million dollars.
What about the Romans who enslaved my people and slaughtered us in the arena, where's my reparations??Again we have human rights violations that happened way after slaveryy ended.
Rent reimbursement then? The reparation's idiots seem to think they deserve retirement level money.The mule was to be a loan, not a gift.
You forgot to say "I will never say the N word"I have never owned a slave. I have never bought or sold anyone. I don't know anyone who has.
I don't know anyone who has been a slave. I don't know of anyone whose parents or gr
abdparents were slaves.

Begging the Question Makes Us BeggarsIt didn't make slavery legal in non-slave states. It was a mechanism for producing proxy votes in existing slave states.
Slavery was a legal quagmire from the first day it came to our shores.
Unfortunately, the federal legislature never had the courage to resolve it.
Dindu Do-NothingsYou don't deserve shit. You deserve to pay taxes and die. So work for once.
Very few slaves were imported under the US government. But then you're a bit slow anyway.The US government legalized the importation and ownership of slaves.
