But aren't the corporate "sponsorships" of NAACP, affirmative action, minority contracts all forms of reparations? The damages asked for are ridiculous---in the TRILLIONS according to a recent estimate. Once the money is blown, America will probably get blamed.......again.

My ancestors were poor share croppers. They worked the same fields as the blacks, for the same land owners, with the same harsh conditions. But, when I went to College I had to work 2 part-time jobs and pull straight "A" grades to get accepted while Blacks got into college for free on Government grants with mediocre grades.
Everytime some Blacks riot and kill some white people they get a slap on the wrist because they are traumatized by slavery and discrimination. When some cop slaps a black kid for pulling a gun the cop gets the full penalty of the law. Add to that "affirmative action" and its now the White/Asian/Jews that are being discriminated against in the U.S.
I have always felt that you cant eliminate someone as a friend or employee because of color or creed. Its too hard to find good friends and employees to worry about such petty things. But, if I have to pay money to the Blacks for slavery thats gonna piss me off and I think alot of other Americans will freak out too. Enough is enough.
