    Anyone can say anything but that does not change reality

    And the reality is you choose for you and nobody else.

    Too bad reparations isn't going to happen.
    Anyone sitting around depending on it probably already gets welfare anyways. The people who aren't sitting around depending on it probably have jobs so it kind of takes care of itself

    But the media keeps bringing up the issue right before election time.

    You must be new here. Do Ireally need to explain to you why reparations have to be paid?

    They do not have to be paid.

    They never will be. Ther is no justification for them and they are not owed.

    Which does not negate the fact that you don't no matter how much you want it to.

    Interesting you raise this point. All Slave owners were paid compensation on the day of abolition, to the tune of £30b in today's currency.

    No you don’t need to explain why reparations NEED to be paid because you are wrong.

    ah, just noticed you actually are new. so for the millionth time here, allow me to fill you in for the first time and hopefully we wont have to go round in circles over the next year;

    whether the "slaves" or "slavers" are alive today is irrelevant because a precedent has already been set, relatively recently actually. the slavers were paid compensation the day of abolition (the "slaves" received no compensation), to the tune of £300b in todays currency. You and I have been paying this debt off all of our lives, only recently fullfilling this obligation (yes, ive got primary sources).

    so the question is, who exactly have we been paying all this time?
    we have been paying the very descendants and beneficiaries of those same slavers. namely, the Rothschilds [and many other big banking institutes that were also involved in the financing of slavery]

    only in the last few years, feb, 2015 to be precise, have you and I and our fathers and our fathers fathers, finally paid off the reparations to the slavers and their families families, non of whom where involved but all have had to pay or be paid.

    so as you can see, you and I, who were not born then have been paying all our lives. therefore the precedent is set for one not having to be alive at the time to receive compensation. so you can drop that argument already.

    You musty be referring to some other country. Since you quote pounds and not dollars you must be referring to the UK. They were not conpensated in the USA

    You you are decietfully using an example from some other nation to justify why you think reparations should be paid here in the US'

    Very lame attempt at bait and switch

    there is no explanation you can fashion that will justify reparations to those who never were slaves-to be paid by those who never held slaves. Our constitution prohibits bills of attainder and that is exactly what that woke bullshit is. Reparations are also racist garbage as well. There is no justification of that nonsense

    Precedent already set. Failure to proceed accordingly would be viewed as double standards and outright racism.

    what precedent-where have people who never experienced the harm compensated by those who had nothing to do with causing the harm. You could use precedent to justify re-enslaving blacks if you want to make that claim
