    Technically, they're fighting for you to have that same option, are they not?

    So, using your logic, they are fighting for an extra right for everyone.
    yes

    please vote in B2B's thread over in the club because he cares who agrees with him and who doesn't.

    People tend to forget that slavery was accepted, and a legal business for white Americans who could actually afford to own slaves. Slaves were traded on average from $100-$2,000 daily, for 310 years. There were many white families that invested great sums of wealth to buy slaves, and when emancipation was passed, they were not compensated for their lost property. There are still some whites in the south today that have filed cases against the Gov't to be compensated for their losses.

    If there is ever an issue of Reparations ever to be taken seriously, then the whites who lost hundreds of millions in human live stock should be compensated.
    no.

    To go back to the OP, reparations is stupid. You'll always have some people who think that it wasn't enough, and frankly, we're hopefully only a generation or two until that type of request won't matter. Minorities today don't have to worry nearly as much as boomers did in choosing who to marry, voting, and various other civil functions.

    I wonder if Greg More who spent many hours posting at ST bragging about how much money he has and owns his own business will delete his posts so it doesn't up his plans to get some of the free honky cash?

    All the people that deserve any money are dead. This generation of blacks doesn't deserve because they didn't have to endure the slavery. Just because some distant relative that they never met or even knew existed might have been a slave doesn't mean they should get anything.

    , a promise is a promise. Give them black folks tax-free land and a car.

    If a person wins a settlement of a million dollars and dies before getting that check, they still hand that check to the next of kin.

    I don't see the connection with your statement with giving reparations to African Americans. Those fat s werent kidnapped from their homes, killed, raped, and/or recieved 50 whip lashes on their bodies for not losing weight.

    Neither were any of the black people alive today. Why should they get anything? They didn't suffer any slavery.

    Nah I dont believe they reprimanded those folks that got blasted, but the asians that were held captive in the camps here in the states were issued a formal and public apology AND they were compensated monetarily.

    It goes beyond them not being alive. First of all, it was only some slaves who were promised the 40 acres. Not all. I don't recall all the details, but the mule was not part of the promise. It was given anyway. Several former slaves got the deal, before the next administration canceled the agreement.
