The history of slavery in the United States justifies reparations for African Americans, argues a recent report by a U.N.-affiliated group based in Geneva. This conclusion was part of a study by the United Nations' Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent, a body that reports to the international organization's High Commissioner on Human Rights. The group of experts, which includes leading human rights lawyers from around the world, presented its findings to the United Nations Human Rights Council on Monday, pointing to the continuing link between present injustices and the dark chapters of American history. "In particular, the legacy of colonial history, enslavement, racial subordination and segregation, racial terrorism and racial inequality in the United States remains a serious challenge, as there has been no real commitment to reparations and to truth and reconciliation for people of African descent," the report stated. "Contemporary police killings and the trauma that they create are reminiscent of the past racial terror of lynching." View Quote |

I agree. If not for the United states slavery would never have existed
|
|
I thought that we were paying in the modern day form of welfare. Silly me .................................
|
|
Have they expressed their expert opinion on the epidemic of black on white crime? |
|
Tell you what.
Let's give them a settlement. Let the UN decide what it is. THEN we deduct every single welfare check, low income housing unit, Obamaphone, food stamp, EBT card, EVERYTHING from the debt. Then if the money we paid already is greater than the settlement then they have to figure out a way to pay US. Fuck that shit. There's one race and that's the human race. Nobody don't owe nobody NUFFIN'! |
|
UN, you can't do shit.
So fuck off, this is our country, not yours. Come here, and we'll give you a changed of TEMPERATURE. |
|
Pretty sure we've already paid billions, if not trillions in "reparations", yet the killing continues...
|
|
Oh you mean more than, WIC, food stamps, section 8 housing, free tuition and the myriad of other free shit they get?
Fuck off UN. |
|
Who gives a shit at this point ?
Let the shit-show begin. Let's give every black guy in the country a million dollars. |
|
|
LOL. Brazil had more slaves brought in and had slavery longer than anyone. And they are treated worse than in the US now.
Also how about the slave traders take responsibility. Oh wait wrong country.... |
|
Tell you what, how about starting with the Dutch, Norse, English, French, Chinese, Japanese, Ottomans, Egyptians, and any other country involved in slavery before the United States and then the UN can still go fuck themselves.

|
What about the black on black killings since those account for the largest percent of killings. Will they pay each other? With taxes from people that work? Divide by zero?
|
|
What happened to the men, women and children of conquered tribes in Africa before the slave trade? Were they set free or murdered/raped by the conquering tribe?

Obviously...OBAMA being there last week gave the UN the balls to even suggest it to Americans. Will there be a renewed call from the UN, for Americans to disarm too? http://i813.photobucket.com/albums/zz55/ma96782/AR15dotcom/UN_helmet-small.jpg Aloha, Mark View Quote Harumph |

Time for the U.N. to find another host nation which will put up with their shit.
|
|
Why are we still in the UN again? It's time to leave and kick their HQ out as well.
Just wait until 0bama becomes Secretary General of the UN. This shit will get much worse, especially if Trump wins. |
|
|
I'm trembling at the thought of the useless nuisance sending us a sternly worded letter.
|
|
I wish we had a leader that didn't put up with the UN's stupid bullshit.
|
|
Just throwing it out there and setting the ground work for when Hillary becomes POTUS and Obama head of the UN. Here all along we thought he was only dangerous as Prez.
|
|
How about the fact that the US has such a small percentage of slaves worldwide and we are the only ones who even acknowledge it. The UN is such a fucking joke. Id take a troop of girl scouts over those asshats
|
|
What greater reparations could they possibly have received than not being shipped back "home"? Tell the democrats to fuck off, get off your ass, and make something of yourself just like millions of other blacks, whites, latinos and asians have. |
|
The US and European Powers are behind the African Kingdoms and Tribes that sold their rivals and own people into slavery. Black descended from slavery need to ask for reparations from the Western African Nations first.

View Quote Yup. $ Value of Welfare paid since 1960 + $ Value Affirmative Action / Number of actual provable slave descendants = Reparations already paid per actual provable slave descendant. Work up a statement of benefits paid per actual provable slave descendant and mail it out. |

If paying reparations to descendants of slaves is fair, then in all fairness, those reparations should be paid by those ultimately responsible for capturing the slaves in the first place: African tribesmen...

Blacks have been repaired and given more than extravagant opportunity to improve their situation in life. The average ghetto black does not want to improve or get out of the ghetto or be worth a damn, they are content to live in the plantations built by LBJ and his political descendants and demand free shit, which they have squandered to the tune of about $20 trillion.
Also, fuck the internationalists, they need to clean up their own houses before criticizing the US. |
