Yes, every election cycle.

It never happens and is forgotten once the elections are over.

And those to whom the democraPs are pandering are/will be stupid enough to believe it will happen.

As I recall, their bible seems to have been written by Saul Alinsky.

More Free Shit!
The entire Democrat platform, it's reason for existence, is to accumulate power with OPM.
Those who wish to rule us want to make us slaves, reliant on government for everything.
Isn't it ironic that 'reparations' for slavery would be part of that?



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

It will never happen and the Dems know it.

Black economic numbers are improving under Trump so Dems can't push that angle thus they try reparations to stay relevant to the black community.

It is as simple as that. That's why all the Dem candidates are onboard.

Not really. This particular group has little to no shot at the golden ring and they know it. As a result, they're throwing everything they can think of at the wall trying desperately to find something, anything, that will stick.

quote:
The reparations bill appears affixed to the Democratic presidential primary, for now at least, as candidates court black voters. There is scant public polling on reparations, but two polls in the past four years show most African-Americans in support and most whites opposed.
Ok, well, since blacks represent about 14% of the US population with whites representing over 60% of the population, I guess we're done with this nonsense.
quote:
Jacqueline Foster, a retired educator from Queens, N.Y., attended the Sharpton conference last week and was skeptical of the candidates. “They said what they think a black audience would want to hear,” she said.
Ya think? Hell, ya'll even got a 29 year old Puerto Rican princess (AOC) pandering in her version of black street lingo. The whole thing was nothing but morons on parade, boldly lying through their teeth on every issue put before them and prostituting for votes.

These democrats have a constant WET DREAM for reparations! And a continuous false promise for FREE STUFF to voters if they vote for them. Unfortunately, the stupid, ignorant and gullible Americans fall for this crap every election cycle...

I'd like to see a list of all of the families that have actual ties to slave owners and how that list compares to current Democrats.

Historical documents would be key, and it would and can be tied to individuals and institutions like Harvard.

The blood spilled during the Civil War is reparations enough. Anything more, and there will be an additionally high cost.

Those calling for reparations, are not owed them, nor do they wish to be held responsible for any truth.

How long did England import and run the slave trade on this continent? When the crown pays, I'll consider it. Until then, bug off.

I recall from some time ago, that the first slave owner in America was a black man. Maybe his descendants need to pay the reparations!

And this whole stupid collection of nonsense is nothing but democraPs pandering for black votes. The real question is, how many of them will actually buy that shit. IMO: A whole bunch.

ok, a couple of questions

who is going to make the payments

and to whom are the payments going to be made

why is this a federal issue when slavery was an agreement between private individuals?
