Reparations

As I said, the German government paid out money to holocaust survivors. There have been no black slaves in this country for many decades. Yet we have spent countless billions on them, welfare, affordable housing, affirmative action, all sorts of social welfare programs. And for what? What have we gotten for our money? Chicago? Baltimore? Memphis? St. Louis? I could go on.
At some point people have to take responsibility for their own lives. Quit blaming everyone else and stop wallowing in victimhood. Blacks were better off in the fifties before welfare. How come?
No argument there. I don't think there's an equivalence to Holocaust victims. If a black man's father is lynched his son should have the civil lawsuit avenue available to him to go after all involved, assuming there was no heinous crime involved that spurred whites to lynch him. No different than going after OJ by Ron Brown's family. In other words the time for blanket reparations has long passed so today if blacks are harmed they have civil litigation to address that. But don't expect the harm done to ancestors generations ago to apply to someone today.

More silliness from our government.


The program comes from the Federal Housing Administration, who posted a proposal for feedback on an initiative called "the Payment Supplement Partial Claim", which as the government's press release says, "would allow mortgage servicers to use the FHA Partial Claim both to bring a borrower’s mortgage current and to provide temporary reductions to their monthly mortgage payments for up to five years."

Here we have another black woman who decided she needed someone else's money more than they did.

  • Patricia Martin, who sat on the bench in Cook County for 24 years, was in charge of handling Oscar Wilkerson Jr's life savings
  • But his family and the state legal disciplinary agency claim she stole $240,000 of his money and sunk more than $100,000 into cryptocurrency
  • Wilkerson was a highly decorated Tuskegee airman and civil rights pioneer who was one of the first black military pilots to fight for the United States in the war
  • She was a judge for 24 years and was presiding judge of the Cook County juvenile court's child protection division when she retired in 2020 a month after she took control of Wilkerson's finances.
The veteran's attorneys then wrote to the judge to ask Martin to demonstrate why she shouldn't be held in contempt of court and order her to return the money and show where she put it.

They then reported that a total of $383,236.75 had been taken out of his accounts and other people had to come together to pay the money owed to Wilkerson's retirement home.

And the lawyers asked for Martin to be sanctioned for not answering the questions or providing records of where the money went and asked for a default judgement of $1,229,384.31.

This order was signed and granted by Judge Demacopoulos on May 24 and Martin was ordered to pay more three times what she allegedly took for damages, fees and court costs.

Sorry, but I don’t care anymore.

She should be stoned to death in front of the Court House and her black dead ass strung up in the nearest tree for everyone see.
Nice. Reparations will never happen. A:There's no money, B: Determining eligibility would be impossible, and C: It's all for] show anyway. That's a really reprehensible post.

Never say never. Especially when California is involved.
Never. Ever. It sounds great in front of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. All for show. It's going nowhere, but it won't stop faux outrage over something that isn't going to happen.

cornel west is running for green party president and in favor of reparations i believe.

40% of americans identify as independent. they see through the 2 party corporate duopoly. the next large group is non voters. after that are democrats and then republicans.

green party has ballot access in 21 states.

the idea is not necessarily for him to win but its to get enough votes that it pressures the corporate democrats into doing some good policy instead of usual corruption
