I would be for it in a form of a GIANT COLLEGE FUND

Something like black people won't have to pay for college period for the next 100 years..

It will def. help everyone in the long run.

Well we have had those types of things set up already, one could argue the country has already paid trillions of dollars in those types of reparations.

So you are saying it should be paid if possible? There have already been several coalitions demanding trillions of dollars for it. The question is, moreso, should it be paid (and in what form) regardless of the immediate ability to pay.

these people nowadays dont give a shit about their great great grandparents who lived 200 years ago whom they have never met. they are just looking for a handout cuz they are too lazy to make their own money.

I look at it like this. No one in this day and age was ever a slave, so why give reparations? I enslaved no one why should i have to give my money to someone that wasnt enslaved? Because their ancestors were enslaved by someone elses ancestors which were not mine? My fathers side didnt come to the US till the 1920s and my mothers side came in the 1800s to new england and did not own slaves. I think if a black person feel they would of been better off in africa move the **** over there and we will see your *** in a commercial with sally struthers.

no its reality. that whole back to africa crap is bogus. We have it good here why act like life is so hard. No one here in this forum would last a month in africa. I feel the same way about the cubans always *****ing, send them back to cuba and see how they like the changes //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I believe in the state that we are in as a country right now we couldnt even afford to give out any reperations, we r to busy in a war , and bush to worried about fattin up his pockets, money is needed in many parts of the US but they havent recieved what makes anyone think us black people will get some type of reperations.
