'$5 million is too little:' Activists tell California reparations committee to aim higher
Dig me up a slave and a slave holder, particularly the black slave holder, and I'll support making "him" pay some reparations.
The worst thing about this reparations noise is now that it is out there--- some people are going to expect it and there will likely be protests over it and demands that cannot be met.
So, we pay reparations to this generation, and then the next generation will want theirs's and the next and the next. So where does it end?
How about a little truth around now! California never had any slaves! So why pay reparations to Blacks in a state that never had slaves! Oops, did I let the cat out of the bag? Reparations? Only politicians that are morons would give reparations to anyone!

Why is it that many people seem to have missed history or civics classes in High School? After the Civil War, every former slave had the choice of going back to Africa or getting 30 acres of land and a mule as reparations. Those that chose to go back to Africa formed the country of Liberia. Those that stayed took their 30 acres and a Mule and farmed it or sold it and spent the money as they wanted too. There is no need to pay reparations again. This is just the leftist communist Democrat party trying to buy the votes of stupid people who vote for a living instead of working for a living.
