Should black people pay reparations for all the murders they've committed?


Many of the prison systems in the U.S. have work programs. They can use this money to pay back the victims families. It could help the killers gain a sense of pride and feel like they're a functioning member of society. Plus all members of the killers family would have to pay reparations to the victims family. This would be a big incentive for the parents to make sure and raise good kids.

Discuss.

I find this way of thinking insane and think you and everyone who may think it should commit yourselves to mental institutions. Money isn't going to help someone cope with the loss of a loved one. Plus all black people aren't guilty of murder. Why should the black people who are innocent of murder and have never been arrested for it have to pay money for things they didn't do?

reply

Only the killer and their immediate families would be responsible for reparations. Not all black people.

reply

Then this would also apply to murderers from any race.

reply

right but blacks commit more murders than any other group.

reply

But again, if it's race-neutral then it's not specifically targeted at black people.

Anyway my actual answer is no, I don't support reparations. Either from white people to black people, or black people to white people in any capacity.

reply

This discussion is not race neutral though.

reply

I see what you did there! 🤣

Plus all black people aren't guilty of murder.


That also goes for slavery reparations. There isn't a person alive in the US who had ANYTHING to do with slavery.

reply

Any black who demands reparations for slavery from whites must first pay reparations for:

1) Slavery, since it was black slavers who captured and sold black slaves to Americans.

2) Black crime, esp the enormous rate of murder by blacks.

Once they have paid $10,000 each, they will be eligible for, say, $100 in reparations.

Weren't the majority of slave owners Jewish?

reply

No.

It's a supposed inconvenient truth about American slavery... along with the Trader Ships.

reply

I’m willing to believe it if proven true, but it smells like another antisemitic lie.

reply

If you mean by being told to you by Lester Holt on NBC Nightly News... That's probably not going to happen.

reply

Don’t know who that is

reply

Hehehehehe, could you imagine how many of them would the screeching to the heavens over paying a debt like that? Their entire scam of stealing money from guilty white people would be ruined, and many would be broke in 5 seconds, even the rich race hustlers!

reply

YIKES!

(They can call you names, but never actually prove you wrong)

reply

couldnt even get the bat off your shoulder huh?

reply

WHY SPECIFY BLACK PEOPLE?...WHY NOT MURDERERS IN GENERAL.

reply

Because he'll give the stat that in America 51% of all murders are committed by black people.

reply

Yes and why do you think that is?

reply

*crickets*

🤣

reply

I guess he didnt want to know why black people commit murder at a higher rate than any other group?

reply

Yep

reply

Science deniers.

reply

And regardless of their official stats, the numbers are actually higher since they are often and deceptively logged as white inmates.

reply

yes, that's happening in most states now

reply

They do. They are caught, tried and convicted at higher rates than white murderers and get longer sentences.

Do you have any other stupid questions?

reply

I've got one. Why are blacks caught, tried and convicted at higher rates than white murderers and get longer sentences?

reply

get longer sentences

Except for the many that have their felonies downgraded so they can continue to commit more felonies.

reply

They do? Black people are paying reparations? Oh really?

They commit more murder that's why they are "being convicted at higher rates"

reply

They don't commit more murders than white people from similar economic backgrounds. Poverty is the issue, not race.

reply

so poverty makes people commit murder? you get dumber with each response.

reply

👍 good idea 👍
