Some Haitians want restitution bawawawa
EFL
French surrender monkeys troops patrolling this former slave colony for the first time in 200 years are getting warm welcomes from most Haitians, but some still want Paris to pay $22 billion in restitution called for by ousted President Jean-Bertrand Aristide. The campaign to win restitution was a cornerstone of Aristideâs embattled administration, which charged France had wrongly made Haiti pay for its independence after enslaving its people and stealing its riches.
uh? France did something wrong? Come now, let us reason together.
``They made us into slaves but we fought and eventually kicked them out,ââ said Job Denis, a 30-year-old tire repairman. ``But then they made us pay for our independence. They owe us that money and it should go to each and every Haitian.ââ
Snicker, snicker...even the Haitians kicked some French backside. The shame!
That was approximately 200 years ago. Maybe any survivors are fully deserving of restitution. But just trying to grab off a hunk of the French pie after screwing up their own country for a couple hundred years is a scam of Jessie Jacksonesque proportions. |
