  1. California, the most immoral State of America trying to cover up their immense crimes against humanity, considering reparations for slavery. The picture enclosed doesn’t look like reparations for African Americans.

  2. What a brilliant idea! All of us members of this melting pot society many of which came from other countries including progeny of Holocaust survivors, Asians, Hispanics and other groups who have nothing to do with America’s past (since they arrived after slavery was abolished) should be responsible to pay extra taxes to pay reparations to all of these former slaves who have been taken advantage of by American society. Forget about welfare, free healthcare, free schools, free government housing, etc. That will never pay the debt which they worked so hard for on the plantations.
