lawsuit coming for Reparations.

Of course this will only further emphasize the race line in this country. Those who dare to say a word against reparations will be branded, out of hand, as racists.

Gee can i seek reparations against those Viking warriors that raided Ireland?

Slavery was an economic treachory forced on america by the colonial powers.

It was also a method that infused the America's with the African genome. It is up to the current Americans to use their abilities to better themselves. There are plenty of people willing to pay tens of thousands of dollars to be shipped here in locked cargo boxes. It is a shame that people who have been here for hundreds of years can not see this advantage.

Hey guys, I wonder if we can jump on the bandwagon here. Maybe, "Reparations for Gun Owners".

Lets sue the crap out of them for depriving us the "life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness" we all want. And for "enslaving" us by taking away our means of ensuring the LLPoH.

What do you think?

This was discussed earlier, but just how many people can provide legal proof that they are direct descendants of slaves?

Hey! I'm Irish. The Brits have been all over my people for centuries. Sign me up for a lawsuit. Not only that, I'm a voluntary southerner. The Federalies were harassing my type since the early 19th century. In the 20th century we suffer language bigotry in reference to "going south" means things are going bad or downhill. Northerners also make fun of our accents.

You know, I think I can add a hate suit to my demand for reparations. This is great, I can be my own class action suit.

Is this a great country or what??????

"Slavery was not officially abolished until the 1863, during the Civil War."

This isn't the first time I've seen this printed. This is not true. Do people not know history or are they just illiterate? Maybe both. What was there in 1863 that abolished slavery? Some will quickly say the Emancipation Proclomation. However, it did not ban slavery. It only affected states rebelling against the Union. Anyone who doesn't believe this should go read it (if they can read). Slavery was not abolished by the United States until 1865 when the 13th Amendment was ratified.

Interestingly enough, the war started in 1861. The Emancipation Proclomation and the Gettysburg Address were in 1863 (which did NOT abolish slavery). The 13th Amendment was made after the Civil War was over.

If the Emancipation Proclomation abolished slavery as some would like to believe, why was it done after the war was already going on for two years?

One would think if the war was over slavery that slavery would have been abolished and then a war occur if the "other side" didn't like it, but it was the other way around. There was a war, and then slavery was abolished.

Did slavery have anything to do with the war? Yes, but it definitely didn't cause it.

I guess it doesn't matter what the subject is. Guns, slavery, taxes, etc. History is ignored and myths are propogated by groups with certain agendas.
 
Byron covered this well.

This will be about as helpful for African-Americans as going after the Boy Scouts has been for gays.

However, there is a silver lining. It will take absurdities such as this to finally convince people that our civil litigation system is broken. The time for tort reform came long ago, and we'd better wake up to that fact.
