Every nation has stains on its history, the recollection of which should be reason for a bit of humility. Tragically, much of human history is a record of wars and violence. We’re reminded of this just by how quickly we recall the major wars of the past or periods of persecution whenever we take a look at history. It’s a very unpleasant, but no less real, part of who we are.
It is for this reason, that sincere work at making peace and fostering reconciliation among peoples is typically held in high regard. It might even have been part of the motivation for the creation of organizations such as the League of Nations and the UN, although both institutions have not only failed miserably at fostering peace, but the UN has been co-opted by those who would impose a one-world government, and turned into a monstrosity that should be abolished. That it has turned into a vehicle for bashing the US can be seen in its recent demand that the US government make reparation to those the UN alleges are the victims of “police lynchings.”
Slavery has been practiced by nations and cultures for millennia, and tragically became part of America until the mid 1860s. Equally sad is the fact that we still contented with the aftermath of slavery 150 years after its abolition. That healing is desirable should be obvious. But demanding reparations isn’t part of the solution despite the views of at least one Congressman as he once again introduces legislation relating to this. More on page two.
Come and get it idiots.
In your dreams, S money wake the old fart up!
How about you pay me for what my ancestors did to help with the underground railroad into Canada. They
helped rescue, and gave them food, clothing, and housing out of their own pocket, and risked their safety to
save those blacks that made it north.
I don’t hear even a thank you for their efforts, and now you want me to give you my hard earned money,
when I immigrated here from Canada. I don’t owe you a cent.
That is what they’re going to use to make deals with Trump on the things that Trump wants! No deals with Democrats!
Then they can pay it, but we will not.
Well they should be the ones paying…after all they were for slavery and started the KKK…what idiots…
Enough is enough of this bull$#%&!@*
Not happening
I don’t owe one red cent before my time
Here We Go Again from the far-left lunatics.
