You should pay one million dollars for each slave you ever owned.

You should receive one million dollars for each year you were a slave.

Now, anyone who was alive and living in the United States in or before 1865, please form a line.

interesting how theres nobody in that line

A and B mostly
and if the white side of C was a slave owner, then you just take cash out of one pocket and put it in the other and call it a day

You know how reparations is going to play out. This will be a new tax. Everyone, regardless of race, will pay this tax and somehow the government will decide just how black they are. Those who they determine are black enough will be sent a check.

The determination will not be based on your particular shade of skin, but by who you voted for.
6 ups, 2y
And who gets those reparations?

An African person who immigrated last year?
A black person whose black ancestor(s) owned black slaves?
A Samoan or Fijian immigrant who has external features that resembles the same features found in black Africans?

Does a black man whose ancestors were black slave owners just pay themselves reparations?

Does a half black and half white person have to pay half of what he is told he owes and then does the government then give that right back to him?

Does an Irish man whose Irish ancestors were sent to America as a slaves get reparations? What if that Irishman was set free and eventually ended up owning slaves? Does this cancel him out from either paying or receiving reparations?

Seeing that this would be the 1st time in American history where people who committed no crime will be punished by people who had no crime committed against them, then is this type of fleecing the taxpayer going to be the standard? I want to know because if this is going to be the precedent then I need to find another country to live that hasn't lost its mind.

The Walmart?

FUN FACT: London turned from a mud flats town into the gleaming financial center (and previous capital, before NYC took the spot) it became because of banks and insurance companies built on the money flow fom the slave trade.

My families African DNA sugests that my ancestors were sold by African slave traders to spanish colonialists. My Irish DNA suggests that my Irish ancestors were slaves of the British crown. Both were bad.

Ancestry.com can determine who sold them? Really? Wow, never knew there was a genetic marker for dealers.

for C it depends how white you are, like im from south america and i look south american but im also estonian, so ill have to pay reperations(even though estonians didnt own slaves and were actually enslaved by german nobility and the russian empire) but D is for certain

What do mean D is for certain?!? My ancestors in Ireland had been oppressed by the British for most of the last 400 years. The Irish were being enslaved by the British as indentured servents for the same period as US slavery. My Parents came to America from Ireland in the 1950's well past the end of slavery in the US.

i have nothing but respect for the irish as i come from a country similar to it i was talking about how the dems just hate all white people, sorry for the mix up

An added layer of irony (or hypocrisy, or utter stupidity as the case may be) is that my ancestors came here from Ireland in the early/mid 1800's, and some died fighting for the North in the Civil War. Also, my wife was born in another country, one that never had slaves.

Does that mean we have to pay double? 😄

Can't get any 'whiter' (for a Caucasoid) than people with a tendency to not be able to even tan evenly, as in freckles.

The Irish are multicultural.. (like Mexicans) There's 3 racial categories in Ireland. 1 - Nordic. 2 - Celtic 3 - Black. Combined they create a magically delicious combo. Unless you are the rare Nordic Irishman with blonde hair & Blue eyes. You can't claim White. The Anglos will just laugh at you and steal your land & Force you to eat potatoes for all eternity.

False.
Irish are classed as Celtic, however genetic studies indicate that they are possibly that but in language only, being of different roots ethnically.
The legend of the so-called "Black Irish" was that they're the descendents of settlers or shipwrecked from a Spanish Armada.

My Irish relatives told me the "black Irish" are considered those with jet black hair, fair skin and light blue eyes.
They might also have pointy elf ears under their hats. just kidding on that last part
2 ups, 2y,

Yeah, it's the hair that's black.
In fact, the Spanish roots thing is the oft heard story, but one that hasn't been substantiated.

The Spanish themselves were actually Celtic before Rome came along, as was much of Europe extending what is now Ukraine, and the mummified remains of apparent Celts (with red hair) have been found on the Silk Road too.

Google images of black Irish. I'm sure you will be able to find whatever it is you want to believe

Thanks for confirming what I said. And the Spanish were conquered by the Moors (Who came from Africa). Spanish just like the Sicilians will forever have African DNA .. because the Moors did so much banging of those sweet southern European women. That's why to this day all Spanish & Sicilians are all hella dark & have dark eyes & dark hair. They are more African than they are European. Watch Quentin Tarantino's 'True Romance' .. it explains this.

Modda doesn't believe (or maybe he does and won't admit) that the Conquistadors were from Spain so he sure as f**k won't believe that the Spaniards have any African blood (Moores or Arabs) in them or were that those folks occupied for 800 years.

Repeating your ignorance won't make it any less, well, ignorant.

Spanish are actually very light, and have Celtic roots. The stereotype of the 'Spanish Dancer' is of Roma, which you would call "Gypsie," incidentally, also from India.

Sicilians are Greek in origin, and given the latitude, like everyone native to the region (note above ref to Spanish orig being Celt), they're tend toward quite tannable. Add an admixture of Roman, Moor, and Norman, among a whole mess of others, and voila,,,

When the Brits conquered Ireland how did they tell the difference between their enemies if the Irish were also "White"? The Irish were too drunk to stand up & fight. That's a fact. It's in the Encyclopedia Britannica
