Stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason.

So long as the sheeple of the US abide by politically correct demographs there will be racism.

I’m so sick of slaves, it’s not even funny. Tell those motherfuckers to get the fuck out of my cotton fields every night. Do it in the day at least, so I don’t have to hear their goddamn whistling.

We need some type of constitutional amendment that automatically implements anything me and JayS agree on into law…at that point its pretty much common sense.

Seriously, I don’t have a problem with a reparation-free apology, but that’s the type of thing that be done in the 2 month summer vacation they’re about to get. If they’re going to be working on this country part-time, it should be on things that matter.

weren’t the jews enslaved by the egyptians for 1000’s of years? pretty sure a couple hundred years doesn’t compare.  
also who do you think SOLD the slaves?, their own people.  
i don’t know about you, but I never owned a slave, or even knew one for that matter.  
i got a joke for you… what do you call affirmative action?..

REVERSE RACISM.

I’m sorry. I thought the premise of your argument was that this bill was wrong and your supporting evidence was all the other races who would have to pay despite no involvement in slavery. I didn’t realize that by “wrong” you meant “right” and by “the bill” you meant “the posters in this thread.”

Segregation = Legacy effect of slavery? Maybe? Kind of? Just a little?

Naw. Unpossible.

ORIGINAL POINT OF THREAD

to point out what congress is wasting time on instead things that might help.

Also to point out this

> Some members of the African-American community have called on lawmakers to give cash payments or other financial benefits to descendents of slaves as compensation for the suffering caused by slavery.

and say that no one is owed anything, no matter their skin color.
