And I would have been willing to die too. I'm someone who is willing to die to get things that should have been had in the first place. This is why nothing you have to say moves me one bit. As for reparations, this is how I see it. Slaves did all that work with no compensation. This is why I don't speak against reparations. Nothing you say can change my mind.
I agree. I would rather what is left of this country burn than see one penny paid for reparations. The same is true for the entire leftist agenda. As the poster you are responding to said “some things are worth dying for”, I believe preserving our history, traditions and following our constitution are things worth fighting for. The politically correct socialist mob must be put down. I am perfectly ok with a civil war if need be to protect our nation from these enemies. I am tired of the attacks on white people, out history, our freedoms and our constitution.
Social justice warriors, leftists and the politically correct are the enemies of America. We conservatives need to let that sink in. We need to be prepared for what is coming. If we want to be free and have the country we inherited from our parents and grandparents continue then we need to be prepared to fight for it. The leftist must be stopped at ALL costs.

Sorry you feel that way.
You still won't change my position on reparations. I don't consider them a bad thing. As for leftists, well, I'm not on board with leftists on everything. However, I think of this. You mention the country in inherited from "our parents and grandparents". The country my parents and grandparents was far worse than the country I grew up in. I was born in 1986. My father grew up in the late 1960s, in the Midwest. He grew up in one of the rougher neighborhoods of his city. His city was one of those cities that had riots during the 60s. My grandparents grew in the Jim Crow South. The America they knew was much worse than what I have known. This is why I don't have this "the USA is going to the dogs mentality". It would have had it much worse back in the 40s and 50s as a Black person.

Jim Crow has been over since the 50s. For over 60 years institutionalized racism has been illegal. We have debated before and we disagree on everything regarding this issue but I stand by my belief that black people do not have a legitimate beef in our society. They have the same opportunities that anyone else does. I also believe that they do not have the right to force the rest of America to white wash its history and culture to satisfy their insecurities and beefs against it. Robert E Lee, confederate flags and “old white men” are part of our history. America was founded by whites people and it is an Anglo centric nation. Black people do not have the right to demand that be changed and we have the right to fight to preserve our heritage and history. Black people however are invited to enjoy and contribute to what this country is all about. It seems however that is not something that many of them are interested in. Many of them have joined a coalition of white leftists who wish to remake our nation into a SJW model of a socialist state. I will oppose those efforts with every fiber of my being. I firmly believe this divide in our nation has us on the path to a civil war that will be every bit as nasty as the last one. If this is what must happen to preserve our freedom and culture then so be it.
