Naw, I think this is fantastic.  I think handouts to include reparations shout be the main plank in the liberal platform.  I pray it is....literally.  I think people would run from the party.

They forgot to mention that the reparations are owed by the Democrat Party, not the Republicans. The Democrat Party was the de facto “Pro Slave Party.”  Oh, and the reparations should also be collected from black people as it was black people who originally captured other black people and sold them; additionally Black people also owned slaves and therefore are also responsible.

First off the bill will never pass, the Democrats will never let it because they'd lose that issue. The Republicans need to force a vote on it, to show the Democrats true colors.

Second with DNA testing everyone needs to get tested. The anyone that shows the least little percentage of native American but doesn't belong to a tribe needs to contact a lawyer, then we file a class action lawsuit. We are owed not only for the land but all the resources taken from the land. This will bring any discussion of reparations to a screeching halt.

Stop using logic. The story of dutch slavers going across Africa catching Africans with nets and then forcing them onto ships is way more cinematic.

Slavery was a terrible institution, but it's history. Not history that should be forgotten, but history that should acknowledged and learned from. Tribes raped and pillaged one another forcing survivors into slavery and then were sold at African slave markets to Dutch slavers who then brought them to the Caribbean before being shipped to the South to be sold.

At the time of the Civil War, all slaves were owned by Democrats.  Not one Republican owned a slave.  Also, the Civil War was not about slavery.  It was about states rights.   The KKK was a Democrat organization too.
