I was at first unsure if you were crazy, but since you have confirmed it, you are correct. I shall no longer engage you. I will follow your posts and watch what you write, like the train wreck it is!
Cheers!
Nice attempt at disguising the fact that you've been nailed.
Beats me. But I think it's the keyboard racists here that fear it. I am Black and as long as I've been living, the conversation of reparations have never been brought up. It reminds me several years ago, a white co-worker friend of mine came to me concerned that they would teach Ebonics in her daughter's high school. I didn't know what the f she was talking about and asked her to elighten me what Ebonics was. I am still friends with this co-worker and I hope she realizes she was worrying for nothing. I should have asked her where did she hear it from. I'm guessing she listened to right wing radio or something.
There is also sizable support in the white community of people who believe the United States Government should adopt an official policy of white supremacy to preserve the white majority in America. Do you see anybody bringing that up like the way you guys are bringing up the topic reparations?
It's seems like a common obsession of white racists is the idea they have in their heads that all black people in America wake up everyday dreaming of their "reparations check" arriving in the mail. The idea of reparations is a joke in the black community...

Race will always be a divisive issue in American society. Many people on the right have built their careers by capitalizing on this issue. The overt racism of the pre-civil rights era have been replaced by a covert, coded type of racism that is commonplace in right wing Republican rhetoric and ideology.

Well sorry to clip your wings supremacists, it doesn't work that way. Most people in the black community have bigger fish to fry than waste their time fantasizing about something they know they will never get. We have jobs to attend to, families to take care of, households to maintain just like you do. Like everyone else, we are struggling to keep our footing in this tough economy.
The idea of reparations is a joke in the black community... I don't know anybody holding their breath for that. Heck if you go on the street and ask the average black youth if they believe that whites should pay reparations to blacks they'll have no idea what you are talking about. It seems to be an obsession of racist whites suffering from the guilt of slavery more than anything else. How can you say that blacks won't get over slavery when you constantly bring this non-issue up?
The only time I hear of it is when someone makes a post on it. I've never heard anyone in person say it. We joke about it though. Chappelle did a great bit on black people receiving reparations.

Is there?
Have these "sizable" white supremists introduced a bill in Congress?

If the 'average black youth' doesn't know what reparations are, you know very uninformed black youth.
