    Looks like the immigration chickens have come home to roost.

    They know that their voting bloc is only about 1-2 generations from being out breeded into irrelevance. The Democrats will drop them like yesterday's left overs, and not even 20 George Floyd or Rodney King incidents will change the outcome.

    All those illegal immigrants are costing money which could pay their restitutions....
    The reparations could in the form of jobs when the border is secured and the remaining illegals are deported. It is not a coincidence that the unemployment among the blacks and hispanics hit record lows during the Trump administration. Or that wages made their first real gains in decades.

    And, again, take a page from the Japanese by confiscating any wages earned by working in the U.S. illegally a la civil forfeiture. Include vehicles and other property purchased with those earnings as well.

    Wow, must be some of those right-wing white nationalists I keep hearing about.

    At least they're a little more than half right. Immigration? Check. They're showing a clue. Reparations, though? Tell ya what. I'll happily pay reparations to anyone who can prove that they personally were a slave and that I personally enslaved them. Otherwise, **** that. Nobody is owed anything for what someone else's ancestors may or may not have done to their ancestors. Also, if a black person's ancestors came to the US after the Civil War ended, are they excluded from the whole reparations thing? Will they have to prove their lineage? I doubt it. It's just another free ride.

    I think those folks demanding slavery reparations spent zero time as slaves.

    Therefore I also think that all those folks demanding reparations for slavery should immediately be exiled to their ancestral country.
    Pepople who have never been slaves demavdin reparations from people who have never owned a slave. utter stupidity.

    Let's not be so fast on the no reparations bit. My ancestors came from Ireland, and not very far back. They were indentured servants, which is another way of saying slaves. So I'm all for a big bunch of reparations as long as I'm first in line, considering there were far more Irish slaves than any other for many years. Pay up, folks. I'm a waiting...

    And stepping back even more further, before the American Indian tribes, are the people who are known as Clovis. Moreover, I understand there are findings revealing other people groups before the Clovis who are genetically different.

    I don't guess any of them got reparations either.

    I am part Sicilian Blackfoot. My mother’s Indian heritage is from the pacific northwest and father is from north coast of Sicily east of Palermo. Basically just canneloni eating Indians. I have sent letters to AOC and the rest of the Squad asking them to support my reparation in the amount of $3 million dollars to compensate for the grief of the Blackfoot being forcefully displaced by the colonists from the Great Lakes region to the bitter cold Rocky Mountains where it is virtually impossible to find a restaurant serving a decent spaghetti. I’m relatively certain that my check will be forthcoming.

    Back in the 90s, a reporter for the WaPo who had been there correspondent in South Africa under De Klerk went back a few years after Mandela took over. His editorial started "I can't say it - I should not even think it - but there for the grace of God go I." He pointed out that South Africa had been relatively safe but, after the election, it was not long before Johannesburg became the carjacking capital of the world - on rising crime across the spectrum.

    I have a real question for those still whinging about slavery - why don't they direct their efforts against slavery that exists today instead of railing against what happened over 150 years ago? Human trafficking continued in the U.S. after the war and after the Emancipation Proclamation - in black and white communities. It has expanded in the Hispanic and even into the Asian communities so it seems racist to me that the focus of the "anti-slavery" or "slavery reparations" is only on the blacks. Is that racism, a sign of their ignorance, or they just don't care?

    And, while I am throwing stones, I will note that folks on both sides of the Mason-Dixon line called out the duplicity of the Northerners who were silent about the treatment of many workers - which in too many cases was nominally better than slaves in the south - while loudly decrying the plight of the slaves.
