I'm completely in favor of anyone that was a slave receiving reparations from anyone that was a slave owner. Anyone? **crickets** moving on....
TRUE DAT!
Various LIE-beral IMBECILES have argued in favour of "compensation" for descendants of slaves!
And it is nothing more than a MAD LIE-beral give away of other peoples money!
Firstly - SHOULD ALL BLACK PEOPLE - or at all non whites get money?
What of the Indians who VOLUNTARILY MOVED to Uganda for BETTER WORKING CONDITIONS under the old Brit Raj?
Should Brits be BLAMED for harsh conditions in India - that existed BEFORE Brits arrived - and continue NOW that Brits are gone?
Indians were chased out of Uganda thanks to British giving Ugandans their freedom - and the opportunity to be BIGOTS!
It was blacks who drove Indians out of Africa - not just Uganda - but pretty much EVERY African country!
What of Indians in South Africa - who also immigrated there thanks to the freedom of the Brit Raj - do they GET ANY MONEY?
And what blame should we give to White South Africans for treating Indians as second class citizens - better in Afrikaner eyes
then blacks- but still not good enough to VOTE!
And when blacks took over in South Africa - Indians fled! Does Britain get blame for that?
And what about blacks who are part something else such as North American Indian or Asian? Do they get a full share or only part?
And WHO gets to tell the mixed race people they AINT GETTING A FULL SHARE?
And speaking of SHARES - what do LIE-berals plan to tell North American Indians about their LACK OF SHARES????
Whoever makes those announcements HAD BETTER NOT be sitting down for it because a FAST EXIT MAY BE NEEDED!
And what of the fact that Britain fought the Boer War against Dutch South Africans because the Afrikaners "Had a Covenant WITH
GOD to treat black people as slaves - what BENEFIT ACCRUES TO Brits FOR THAT SACRIFICE against Boers?
And in the same vein - in the early 1800`s - Napoleon sent a fleet and an army to invade and capture Egypt!
And Britain defeated the French and freed Egypt from French dictatorship - with Egypt GOING BACK to dictatorship from its
Muslim Ottoman appointed King - The Khedive - I think he was called as I recall!
And The Khedive did a DEAL with Britain - to supply weapons and training to support the Egyptian army - which turned out
NOT to have the strength of will to oppose the invaders from The Sudan - they NEEDED BRITS to oppose the Sudanese raiders!
And after about NINETY YEARS - the Brits finally launched an expedition against The Sudan using a mix of 1/3 Brit troops,
1/3 Egyptian troops and 1/3 AFRICAN / black troops - with the blacks DELIGHTED to be paid and armed and equipped to
STRIKE AT THE SUDANESE SLAVERS who had been kidnapping THEIR FAMILIES for CENTURIES!
So what credit does Britain get FOR SUPPRESSING THE SLAVE TRADE ALL ACROSS AFRICA from about 1800 ONWARD?
And what of the situation for blacks in United States?
What of the ones who ran away and gained their freedom during the American Revolution?
The Book of Negroes states there were probably about 35, 000 of them - and how many Yankee blacks - or Cdn blacks for that matter
ARE DESCENDED FROM THEM? What money ARE THEY OWED - compared to a black who HAD TO WAIT for Lincoln to free the
slaves in approximately 1864?
And what of those blacks who were manumitted by their owners and VOLUNTARILY GIVEN freedom during their lifetimes? These
blacks CLEARLY suffered MUCH LESS - thanks to being owned by more kindly and benevolent owners than those who had to wait
for LINCOLN to free the slaves! Do those who were Manumitted GET LESS?
And what of those blacks who ran away to Canada prior to the Yankee civil war - again their term of servitude was MUCH LESS
than one who had to wait years or decades OR A LIFETIME OF FAILED HOPE for the Lincoln declaration!
And HOW MUCH OF THIS PROPOSED REPARATION CASH SHOULD SYPHONED OFF to compensate the descendants of
those WHITES who VOLUNTEERED to fight that Yankee civil war and who got shot and maimed or DIED of their patriotism and
sense of duty?
And what if we did the DNA tests and figured out approximately WHERE each black person CAME FROM?
If we proved that a person had ancestors in a PIG STY like UPPER VOLTA - should THEY GET LESS MONEY?
After all NOBODY WANTS to live in Upper Volta - known now as Burkina Faso if I recall correctly!
WHY should we compensate people for having REMOVED THEIR ANCESTORS from a horrible place
and brought them to EVENTUALLY BECOME citizens of the richest country on the planet?
And what of people like Rev. Martin King or Obama or Colin Powell - who have ALL DONE VERY NICELY for themselves
in the land of WHITE PRIVILEGE!
Should black people who have found a sensible way to lead decent. honest lives - get the same money as BLACKS WHO HAVE
COMMITTED HEINOUS CRIMES and are thus IN JAIL?
And WILL ALL WEALTHY TAX PAYERS be expected to kick into this fund - INCLUDING ALL THOSE FILTHY RICH BLACK
ATHLETES?
And if all WEALTHY BLACKS ARE EXCUSED from having to pay that "Slave Surcharge" then is this not EXACTLY THE SORT
OF RACIAL DISCRIMINATION that LIE-berals usually WHINE ABOUT?
JUST HOW SERIOUS ARE LIE-berals about eliminating racial double standards? Increasingly it sounds like they ARE NOT
SERIOUS AT ALL! And LIE-berals actually seem to think they SHOULD PROFIT from their version of double standards and racial
discrimination!
How can a multi millionaire black athlete sit in his mansion - signing team paraphanallia that will make him EVEN RICHER
when it is sold to adoring fans and yet STILL WHINE ABOUT DISCRIMINATION?
Is that not the MOST RANK HYPOCRISY?
And WHY should millions of white people who never owned a slave; and millions of people who agreed that Segregation MUST
END; and why should millions of people who decried those Jim Crow Laws and the millions more who SUPPORTED AFFIRMATIVE
ACTION because they VOTED WITH THEIR CONSCIENCE - be FORCED to pay for the actions of a very powerful FEW!
That they HAD NO CONTROL OVER?????????????????
Just what sort of blood money do we owe to Pimps and drug dealers and thieves and robbers - who VOLUNTARILY DROPPED OUT
OF SCHOOL so they could pursue their CRIMINAL AMBITIONS?
The idea of "slave reparations" in unworkable LIE-beral INSANITY - at its most NUTS!
The LIE-beral "solution" will POISON the land for MANY GENERATIONS TO COME!
