#2 The fact that it's even a topic of discussion is ridiculously absurd.

#4 Is the king of shakedowns, Jesse Jackson, ill? He's been awfully quiet during all of this BLM and reparations stuff.

#7 the only reparation i would even be remotely open to discussing would be a one-way ticket to Liberia and a signed document renouncing their citizenship.

you're either part of the country or not. looters of the public coffers have too long been seen as part of the country.

#8 One-way ticket to Liberia + a flat-screen, a new pair of Jordans and a box of Happy Meals.

#11 Two major problems with reparations: Who gets them, and who pays them?
Does Obama get reparations? His father was from Kenya. If any of his ancestors were slaves, they were slaves of Muslims in Africa.
Does my wife have to pay reparations? Her ancestors came to the US in the 1920s from the UK.

#12 The Great Society Social Spending on blacks and other minorities since the '60s far exceeds the $12 Trillion. Bills for the balance owed by the black/minority recipients will accompany your mail-in ballots

#15 Cost of lost productivity and wealth from just the Union casualties of the Civil War?

To say nothing of all the losses in the South, including property destruction?

Costs of black social pathologies?

Costs of all the social programs that disproportionately benefit blacks?

Social costs of affirmative action and "desegregation"?

Costs to society of "wiggerezation" and its effects on the majority population?

Costs of racial bloc voting for Democrats and their policies?
