[quote author=“jack3”]LOL… Thats a whole bunch of Bull ****... White men were also slaves… Just not as many. And it was the african Americans who SOLD us the slaves… and did you personally suffer from the force work? NO!
LOL… that is a lame excuse. Kinda like people getting mad about the Number of kids who are punished in my school are black… LOL… They are the kids skipping classes, yelling in the halls at lunch, and picking fights, the most. Not saying whites dont either, but MOST are black. And if anything they dont get in trouble as much as the whites compared to what they do… Theres kids who just roam the halls and teachers wont say anything…
And also what about the Jappanes(?) during the war we put them in to camps here in the U.S.
Its a bull **** lame excuse….
White men were slaves to their own kind. Mostly they were hired not forced and I can tell that you get picked on by black people at your school.

If they were used as slaves, yes. This country has such a shady history. Look at the Native Americans too. We raped them off their land and took it like it was ours. :|

In that case all minorities should get reparations.

does that mean that it is right? murder is “nothing new”, but does that make it right?
next time, before trying to take up some garbage point of view, at least have a reasonable opinion!

Did I say oh great its cool killing people
Im saying that the way people present the argument pisses me off
I guess you can’t really tell one way or the other by what I posted…but thats what I meant
I never really refuted what he was saying….I was more just taking what he said and just stating a random opinion on what I hate people do regarding that
....yea so I kinda went off the subject with my post but its just something…I felt like posting I guess

the idea that minorities should get reparations is complete ########. At least in the way you are all talking about. You guys, who are supporting this, think that you should be getting paid for what happend to your ancestors. It is a joke that you are trying to benefit through what your ancestors went through. Just so you know, white people werent the only people who have enslaved people. People have been enslaved on every contenent. By almost all races. Why don’t you go bother Greek and Roman ancesters to pay your heating bills because they enslaved your ancestors?

How can you be sure that every black person’s ancestor was a slave? What about white people with black ancestors who were slaves? What about black people with white slave owners as ancestors? We’ve become such a melting pot, reparation is no longer a reasonable idea.
and while on the topic: blacks aren’t the only group that have suffered through racism, look at how England treated the Irish for so many years. Many of us are blind to the geoncide that occured there in the 1800s, and would anyone care? No, because Irish people aren’t a so called “minority”.
What about when the Irish came to America, were they treated any different? NOPE! Before the Civil War people actually placed signs that read “Irish Need Not Apply” outside their businesses.
Hmmm, that sounds familiar, don’t you think?
The past is the past, it was hard for alot of people, lets leave it as that. Most people have it so easy today, even the not-so-fortunate, that it never astounds me how selfish people can be. We should be thinking about helping out the poor and those who really can’t help themselves, not filling the pockets of rich black families.

See I dont like things like this. You say you are 40% indian then you have nothing to do with this. Indians are people born in India. You should learn your own heritage if you mean the people that hristopher Columbus took the land from, they were Native American there is a huge difference. People call them Indians because that is what Christopher Columbus called them when he thought he had shipped to India but it wasnt really India

Well I am kind of with you but then again about saying most are black s that do the bad stuff, believe me no it isnt you are just to blind to see that blacks get in trouble for the smallest things Im sure whites do just about the same stuff that the african americans at your school do, they just never get caught.

Just like many people today will also say blacks are killing other blacks. f whites were in the same situation there would be the same amount of killings going on with them also. Us and by us I mean blacks have to do what we have to do to make a living because we are forced to. Racism is keeping us from getting good jobs and all. Remember its not the racism that you see thats bad, its the kind that you DONT see and think about thats fuc*ing us up

[quote author=“AndruGearLive”]Giving anyone reparations for anything their great, great grandparents MIGHT have went through makes no sense.
I also dont agree with the reperation thing but I dont disagree with it either. I was just stating my opinion on something else
