Blacks won the oppression lottery when they were allowed to stay here instead of being forced to move back to their African mud huts. You can’t change my mind. Reparations paid.

I am aware. A very few didn’t but they were not forced.

how about nobody pays any descendent of a slave one fucking dollar until those slave descendents pay me for the free boat ride their ancestors got

Any so-called reparations need to factor in all the Union casualties too, hundreds of thousands dead and maimed. Additionally, any generational wealth the CSA had was looted and burned by Sherman.

No one should pay reparation. If they are allowed then why can’t a child or grandchild of someone murder sue the family of the person who did the murder

Remember the Federal Government does not have any money to pay. What they do is collect money from one group, take their cut, then pass what is left to another group.

So the descendents of slave owners would pay the descendents of slaves.

One little quirk with this is that there will be many who when they go to collect their money will find out that they are the descendent of one of the thousands of BLACK slave owners and will have to PAY the reparations.

Hard working American tax payers, many with ancestors who fought 'against slavery,' will pay the bill.

The Federal (read: North) Government did not "fight to end slavery."

Only in Southern territories as a war tactic.
