There's a part of me that thinks, sure, let reparations go through and watch people spend it on dumb shit like shoes and chains instead of real estate and job training, and then it will all be gone in a year and they'll be back where they started. Unfortunately, it would just be argued that it wasn't enough money. Money won't change that type of childish, instant gratification, short-term thinking and shit culture.
Thing is, when these "reparations" proposals come up, it always turns out to be a deal where the black people don't get any actual money. The Dems come up with programs to benefit blacks, then their friends and family get the contracts for the programs.
If black people actually get $123k, I'll eat my shorts!!!
I never can wrap my head around that. When I was growing up in 80s we were "food stamp poor" and we barely had food. Now people use their welfare card at the drive thru.
It’s Reynolds law: giving people the trappings of middle class existence doesn’t give them what it takes to get there, but only undermines those traits.
They have a long history of discrimination against blacks. Think Jim crow type of discrimination laws. It is funny how people act like Jim Crow never happened and everything was just equal and happy times from 1860s to 1960s with race relations.
He’s a black man who grew up on a plantation in the South. He’ll tell you that your characterization is completely wrong. You’re believing the leftist indoctrination about that period, that blacks could barely go outside without getting lynched.
Contrary to what you believe, he said society functioned fine, everybody was nice to each other, but occasionally there’d be some shit. However all we ever hear about is the shit. Everybody knew their place and got along, it wasn’t constant conflict as we’ve been conditioned to believe.
What’s better, a tight-knit, church-going community with strong family values, but you have to use a different drinking fountain, or daddy in prison on a life sentence, and momma’s a crack whore who just popped out her third welfare kid?
Not everything is as black and white (pun not intended) as you think.
Of course there was racism. Absolutely no one is arguing that. The retarded faggotry of reparations though is that literally every group of people since the dawn of man has at one point been enslaved, and enslaved others. How far back do we go?
My family was abused by the Brits and starved out of Ireland in the 1847. From there they settled in Wilmington DE only to be ruled by the sleazy used car salesman and noted Pedo clan, the O’Bidens. Oh the horror! Where is my EBT lottery ticket!?!
Don't forget those Barbary pirates that regularly floated up to Europe and snatched white people to sell in Morocco. We need some reparations from them too.
All this reparation nonsense is a giant scam. Big money to made though. Anytime there is this kind of money changing hands you get bribes, money laundering, fraud, kickbacks, backdoor deals, and other lucrative opportunities. I'm off to go set up my non-profit now and get my ass out to the commie state of Oregon so I can help all those poor downtrodden slavery descendants.
Evanston Illinois is already paying reparations. Where did the trillions go that have been poured in the inner cities for over 50 years now? No one asks that question. All the cities are in much worse shape/condition. Crime is far worse. Free money, welfare, food stamps, free lunches, housing, affirmative action for education/employment have not worked. Besides the trillions they now want us to pay reparations on top of that.
The people who should be getting reparations are all the Northerner's families of the men who died to fucking free them, and not from the government, from black people.
Why don't we have the full conversation instead of the piece that benefits themselves only.
That's a lot of sneakers and rims.

I see all the welfare rats around here blowing their money on nice cars, chains, expensive phones, and the best food.
Hell, they live better than me, who slaves away 24/7 just trying to scrape by while the government takes 1/3rd of my money.
I guess I'm the sucker.

Of course you are the one with the privilege.

and chainz.
The only thing these clowns are doing is making everyone hate each other more.
Pretty much the goal of the left .. always has been.
The left is what Jesus called “the synagogue of Satan”
That’s the point.
Oregon was a free state, never had slavery

When are all the women going to get on this gravy train, eh? I mean, they were treated as second class citizens, no?
Fun Fact: Black men had the right to vote for many years before white females did.
You should watch Jesse Lee Peterson sometime.

Vikings did the same shit yet why do you types not hate vikings?

Im Green, what do I get?.. 🐸🇺🇸
Wait til you hear about the Egyptians and their slavery ...
laughs in Slav. The whole of Europe and Asia owes them "reparation" money.
$123k? That’s all? They’ll burn through that in a month.
Then they’ll riot and Oregon will have to pass another reparations bill.
Bought me a grill
Bullshit.
You stole the grill off your neighbor's porch and bought Newports and Schlitz.

don't forget to keep paying your taxes.
Well shit that means Great brittain owes me some reparations as well!
I think I'm screwed. Germans weren't conquered by rome and then they went on to step on a few toes.
Oh hey, how about that time Napoleon fucked europe up. Can I get reparations for that?

Romans and North Africans.
If any state approves reparations, I certainly hope the White, Asian, & Hispanic citizens file a discrimination lawsuit.
Screw the Roman's the Barbary pirates owe me some o dat oil money.
Scratch offs,Nikes and Hennessy will run out in 10 minutes.
Burning down the country as fast as possible
Fucking insanity.
Oregon wasn’t even a state yet when slavery ended. I hope Oregon taxpayers realize they’re the ones that are gonna pay for this?
