I cannot believe they still think they are owed something. If that is the case, they should be going after their African brothers who sold them in the first place.



Reparations: Justice for a Crime Against Humanity...


Enslavement, declared by the United Nations and other international bodies is classified as a "crime against humanity". As such, international law recognizes that nations who commit such crimes, e.g., Nazi Germany, Serbia are obliged to pay reparations for the victims of these atrocities.

In the United States, crimes against humanity were commited against indigenous people, e.g., Choctaws, Lakota, Cherokee and Japanese-Americans (their forcible internment during World War II) and reparations in a variety of forms were given to them, not as a "hand-out" but as a compensatory measure for violence against these groups.

The longest unpaid debt that Europe and the United States have is the result of nearly 500 years of the capture, removal, forced labor, extraction of natural resources from Africa, colonization and discrimination towards Africans and their descendants throughout the world. Studies indicate that the combined total of this crime against humanity amounts to nearly $800 trillion...

Should America Pay?: Slavery and the Raging Debate on Reparations provides the history, facts and figures about the reparations for African people both in the United States as well as around the world. Myths abound concerning what exactly reparations are and scholars in the book set the record straight regarding a long recognized method of securing justice for groups whose lives, families and economies were disrupted by nations committing crimes against them.

SHOULD AMERICA PAY?
Slavery and the Raging Debate on Reparations

Edited by Raymond A. Winbush, Ph.D.

For decades, African Americans have watched as other ethnic groups received financial compensation for government-sanctioned crimes. Slowly but steadily, social activists, academics, and legal scholars have joined together to demand similar justice for the descendants of the systematic, brutal crime of slavery. Yet, advocates for reparations have many different opinions when it comes down to who should pay—and how the money could best serve to heal the wounds of the past.

SHOULD AMERICA PAY?: Slavery and the Raging Debate on Reparations (Amistad/HarperCollins Publishers; January 21, 2003; $24.95) explores the reparations issue in-depth and from a variety of distinguished perspectives. A leading scholar of race relations, Raymond A. Winbush, Ph.D., has collected more than twenty essays on every aspect of the subject. The result is a comprehensive collection rich in facts and insights into where the movement has been, where it is now, and where it will be in the future.

Organized around key topics, essays thoroughly cover the history, the law, the grassroots organizing, and controversies surrounding reparations. Voices include:

· Congressman John Conyers, Jr., considered by many to be the “Rosa Parks of Reparation” on why this is a matter of justice, not charity

· Deadria Farmer-Paellmann on the unsung ex-slave pension movement

· Kevin Outterson, a tax law specialist, gives hard numbers on the cost of slavery

· Shelby Steele tackles the hot-button subject of victimization

· Christopher Hitchens takes on the loudest opponent of compensating slavery’s descendants to explain why this debt is not easily canceled

The book also features full transcripts of important documents, including the First Congressional Reparations Bill of 1867 and the Dakar Declaration of 2001. Encouraging further dialogue on a subject of national impact and global implications, SHOULD AMERICA PAY? is an indispensable and empowering sourcebook.

This is beyond silly! I believe someone else on this Godly forum once remarked, long ago, that the nigras should be the ones paying us whites for liberating them from the hellhole called Africa and bringing them here to God's chosen country, and I could not agree more.

A "crime against humanity" indeed! Cite me one single reference in Scripture where it says that negroids are fully equal to caucasians!

[Ezekiel Bathfire]

Tell me this article is a humorous in its intent albeit in poor taste!

It was the Ashante nigras who waged war on less fortunate tribes and sold the defeated nigras as slaves. Now we know that God is on the side of the winner in any conflict, and He instructs Mankind to either destroy the enemy utterly and/or keep the conquered as slaves. So, the all-but Godless Ashante were selling slaves – their property - and the slaves were even more Godless.

Never forget that unlike Nazi Germany and Serbia, all slavery was quite legal and above-board.

So, let’s assume that we had decided not to buy the slaves, who were lazy, ignorant, unhygienic and given to escaping; what would have happened to them? They would have been put to the sword.

Fast forward and communist atheists lieberals abolish the slave trade without compensation. We are now left with a whole mess of expensive nigra slaves who require the works of The Lord performing on them to make them even marginally acceptable to be in society but seem reluctant to work themselves – they have turned from an asset into a liability.

At law, to be entitled to damages, you have to suffer a loss. A loss means that, as the result of another’s actions, you find yourself in a worse position than if that action had not taken place. All rights to damages cease on the death of the plaintiff. What loss has present- day Rastus suffered? None! Thus the only persons who could possibly have an arguable case are those who were slaves and are still alive and they would have to argue that they were better of dead.

Before we even think about compensation to the nigras, we should be looking at the compensation payable to dairy cattle allowed to live out their lives, fed, watered and cared for, in return for milk, etc. instead of being turned into hamburgers. The Bathfire Ranch has 20,000 head of dairy cattle, I’m looking at $20,000,000 compensation here – please write to your congressman.

It disgusts me to even hear about reparations. Reparations for what? Who are these 200 year old nigra who were former slaves? Us godly whites were born no more freer than any common buck nigra!!! So do we get repearations?

I am gosh darn tired of nigra whining for one hand-out after another. They have welfare, racist nigra only college funds, racist double standard rights to use racial slurs against whites, racist affirmative action, racist free housing for poor lazy nigra, and the list goes on and on. Get a job you lazy porch monkeys!!! Get good grades in school you dim witting underachievers!!!

If the nigra don't like it here then they should go back to Africa. But of course they won't because they know that life is 500 times better under "racist whitey" than it is in any nigra ruled cesspool in Africa. Nigra are parasites on civilization who add absolutely nothing to it. All they ever do is take take take. Everywhere they settle the environment turns from metropolis to shanty town. THEY OWE US for all the destruction, rape, theft, and freeloading they inflict upon godly whites!!! Do you think the slants, sand coons, and dot heads would put up with their nigra antics!?! Of course not!!! That's why you don't see any mass nigra infestations in non-white countries. Godly whites are too nice for their own good. We truly are a charitable GODLY people who have put more money into attempting to correct the nigra scourge than it would have cost to give them reparations!!!

They really peeve my britches!!!!

Amen to that, Brother! Besides, they smell...

[Justina Thyme]

I used to have a friend who always said, "How can they be so happy when their hair's so nappy?"

I loved that dude.

[KJV4me]

Also, the Nigra-Americans should note that they are the wealthiest nigras of any country on the planet. So, logically, they already were given compensation.

I think the nigras should be more concerned about giving compensation to our Lord! Perhaps they should be donating to LBC.

[Daisy Mae Johnson]

I reprimand my Nigras all the time.

Why do they always think they have to be so special?

Sheesh.

[Mad European]

In my country of Britain, we do not seem to have such problems with black people within our communities, particularly where I am from. Do you think there is a cultural difference between Black Americans and Black British people? Because blacks are far more integrated within our society, but we seem to have more intolerance toward eastern Europeans and alot more problems with them.

[Justina Thyme]

Yes, I believe there is a very big difference culturally between American nigras and British nigras. Here it's all gang-banging, hip-hop, pimpin', bling, and whatever else has to do with money, trash-talking, sexual activity, and jungle rhythms. Their secondary school dropout rate is something like 60%, and many "heads of households," if you can call them that, are "single moms" ( euphemism for little black sluts) whose average age is 16 and who have about 3 niglets each, do not have jobs, do not have any desire to find jobs, and live off welfare just like their "single moms" do.

On the other hand, eastern Europeans here in the USA pose no problem to speak of. Perhaps the solution would be a trade-off: You could take our negroes, and we could take your Europeans.

[Mad European]

haha i think we can keep our eastern Europeans, they may be slightly annoying sometimes but they are very good for our economy as alot of people here dont want the jobs the Eastern Europeans take, they would rather sit on their arses and live off benefits. The Eastern Europeans are actually alot more religous, and many of them frequent the local village church, and contribute alot to the religous community of the local area, which was almost dead before they came. The equivalent in the USA of these migrants is Mexicans i would guess for you, but our migrants get jobs.

Where are you from? The Outer Hebrides? Have a look at Operation Trident - 75% of all gun crime is done by nigras. The guns are used to enforce drug deals.

I see no culture difference, they are all tarred with the same brush.

And all the East Europeans are Godless catlicks - that isn't being religious, it's being a member of a pyramid selling scheme - the pope gets all your money and your left with a garage full of worthless dogma.

[Mad European]

This is only true within London, and i think them statistics are slightly out of date. The majority of violent crime is committed by white working class males, and that nationwide is far greater a problem than a few gun crimes in the city, and that is not black people's fault. Black people had to resort to such dealings as drugs within the UK, as we hd them come over from the commonwealth in the 50s and 60s as there was a labour shortage, however in the 70s we had economic recession so alot were left as unskilled labour and the jobs they had to fill had gone, so they had to resort to petty crime and hustling.

The statistics are provided by the Met, they are as up to date as it gets. It's worse in Nottingham, and Birmingham, and Manchester are as bad. And who's into drugs and firearms there? Why it's your Blacks! Well, what a surprise, they're doing it in the USA too - do you think they could be related?

The majority of crime is committed by whites as they represent 93% of the UK population. A large and disproportionate part of the crime is black related. The majority of drug and gun crime is Black related.

Black people had to resort to such dealings as drugs within the UK,

What do you mean, "had to resort to selling drugs?" you make it sound like jigaboos turned round and said, "What, I can't be a brain surgeon, I'll go dealing Crack." Get a grip man! They are entiteled to welfare payments, free housing, free health care but they want BMWs and lots of Bling.

[...] so a lot were left as unskilled labour and the jobs they had to fill had gone, so they had to resort to petty crime and hustling.

Oh yes, like drug dealing and firearms - petty stuff... not important at all really.

What are you some apologist for Black crime? These are the people who say they need compensation for slavery - more money for more drugs, guns, BMWs and Bling eh?

So you are implying that nigra are so one tracked, stupid, low down, worthless, simple minded, and prone to causing trouble that their only employment options are <the one specific job they came for>, professional prison inmate, or drug dealer?

So now that you economy is doing so well, how come the nigra are still being nigra?

The nigra have the nerve to blame the government for not keeping their niglets out of gangs. Now it's the police's fault their their niglets live like thugs and die like thugs. If the cops did crack down and beat the living piss out of their niglets, arrest them without charges, search their homes without warrants, and other things necessary to let criminals know there is no hiding behind civil rights those jigabos would cry racism. Their is no winning when dealing with nigra. Savages; all of them

Let us now get the americanized nigras' perspective on the issue.

The Truth: Right out of the horses mouth.

[Wide-Open]

Amen Brother Remy!

Sure. Really.



Nigras will never integrate out of free will, and it doesn't help conceiling that simple truth. Their brains are hard-wired for riots, rape, and chicken wings. It takes YEARS to get that out of their system, as Brother Remy can testify.

Even Martin Luther King IIIrd - son of - agreed with this on CNN 2 days ago: they need education, education and education. From the horses mouth, so to speak.

[Ezekiel Bathfire]

Former slave, Hadijatou Mani, is suing state of Niger over cruelty: A former slave is suing the state of Niger in a landmark legal challenge, claiming that the country failed to protect her from being sold into a life of servitude and sexual slavery.

Hadijatou Mani accused the Government yesterday of failing to implement its own laws that criminalised slavery in 2003.

If successful, her case — which is being heard by the Community Court of Justice of the Economic Community of West African States (Ecowas) — could pave the way for similar claims from the hidden population of slaves living in their hundreds of thousands across the Sahel region.
“I want people to know what is happening,” said Ms Mani, who was sold to a master for £250 when she was 12 years old. Giving evidence with her youngest child strapped to her back, the former slave told the court how she was bargained over “like a goat”.

She said: “I have not had a day off in my life, and I want the suffering of so many women to stop. This situation must end, so I am very pleased I have been able to tell the judges about my case.” She is claiming compensation of about £40,000 and hopes that a judgment will strengthen legislation in Niger, where anti-slavery laws appear to have made little impact since being introduced five years ago.

This demonstrates all that is wrong about Blacks, the compensation culture and the slave trade.

Until 2003, Niger had a prosperous slave trade by which everyone benefited. Then they banned it. This meant that slaves no longer got an all-expenses paid trip to the country of their dreams. It meant that if you were a slave before 2003, and hadn’t made it to the USA or Europe, you were stuck in the rectum of Africa. Overnight, being a slave was no longer a viable career move.

How much was that career worth to this woman? £40,000! That’s $80,000! Now she’s unemployed and will become a burden on the state. Ha! Because there are no welfare checks in Niger, she and her child will starve in the gutter unless she works. But the economy of Niger is so bad, that she’ll have to work 16hrs a day just to get fed. If she had been a slave, she would have worked 15hrs a day and got bed, board and shelter plus the chance of being a concubine, if she ain’t at all ugly.

You see, these lieberals just don’t think things through. The law of unintended consequences is there to warn of departing from God’s ways.
