I was, from the very first post I made in this thread. It now appears our whole argument is based on your misreading of my post. No, it's apparently based on your own misreading of your own post. Nothing in your original post referred to *punitive* reparations. Why the **** else would there be reparations if not to punish? To compensate. Specific to this issue, slavery in America pre Civil War, what tangible property is to be returned? What other reason would there be (re slavery) for white people alive today to give *anything* to black people alive today? The only thing taken away from the blacks was their freedom. Frederick Douglass had most of his wages taken aeway from him when he was a slave. His descendants could probably establish a sound estimate of just how much money that was. -- FF |
