Reparations truth

By Donald Sensing

NFL Legend Burgess Owens testified before a Senate committee on the topic of national reparations to black Americans because of slavery.


Remember: if reparations becomes a reality, the number of back Americans will triple or more. After all, that which is subsidized, increases - it's the oldest law of economics. Therefore, "If Congress votes reparations, everybody will be black."

UpdateColeman Hughes: The Moment You Give Someone Reparations, You've Made Them Into A Victim -- "Columnist Coleman Hughes expressed his opposition to reparations for slavery at a House Judiciary subcommittee hearing Wednesday. Hughes, a writer for 'Quillette,' said the moment one is given reparations they are made a victim without their consent."
COLEMAN HUGHES: Black people don’t need another apology. We need safer neighborhoods and better schools. We need a less punitive criminal justice system. We need affordable health care. And none of these things can be achieved through reparations for slavery...

Reparations by definition are only given to victims, so the moment you give me reparations, you’ve made me into a victim without my consent. Not just that, you’ve made 1/3 of black Americans who poll against reparations into victims without their consent, and black Americans have fought too long for the right to define themselves to be spoken for in such a condescending manner.
