You’ve been handed reparations for over 75 years, all it got you is fatherless homes, poverty, uneducated children and a misdirected blame for your present circumstances. Welfare, EBT, WIC, housing, free healthcare, and Obama phones has only discouraged people of color to do anything but walk to the mailbox and pull out their monthly check and continuing that tradition since that’s all their children see growing up. There’s no incentive to try to do better it only traps you where you are because you never tried to get an education so the jobs you can get can’t even supply what you are receiving free now. You don’t realize the democrats planned it so they can have you voting democrat for the next “200 years”, a LBJ quote look it up. If reparations are granted just how do you think that will help? What do you think will be done with the money and how long will it last? When it’s gone there will be a demand for more. How do you decide who gets the money? Not every person of color came here as a slave, black people owned slaves too, even Sunny Houston on the view found out her family owned slaves in the past, the largest slave owner ever was a black man who sued to keep his slaves, look it up. How much of reparations will come from black people? It time to drop this and move on, quit pulling scabs off the sores so it can heal.
@Irina_exh He has only been approach by women looking for financial security not love and he knows it and is too smart to enter a relationship on that basis.
@nobleisawinner Wasn’t a mistake it was a conscious decision, her arse is gone. What if a man got another woman pregnant by “accident” the man loses his wife, home, his children and has to try to live off half his income maybe less. If the woman cheats the results is the same.
