Egyptian Pharohs (Africans) enslaved the Jews (White people) and used them in mass quantities to build their pyramids and do their bidding. Since I know this fact, I want my money from all of you black people for enslaving my white race.........GIVE IT UP FUCKERS!!!!!!! :cussing:


which one of your family members that you know of and actually interacted with were enslaved, and i didnt say I should get money, i said my FAMILY should, fuckin dumbass, since my great granma (god rest her soul) isnt around anymore

same as if sum1 in ur family fell in a store and died, you would sue, and get the money

Logic The Goonie 03-11-06 12:14 AM

lmao @ this being the first race thread to not be ignorant as fuck.

The only argument I would make is against enygma saying about how black people aren't lazy to get up and do better, but that has too many reasons for me to care, he has the right idea.

I'm proud of my bebes.

Shear Kaughn 03-11-06 02:10 AM

let me start off saying that i'm black and i believe that in TODAYS society, there is no such thing as the white struggle or the black struggle........

but i do agree that there is people who struggle who happen to be black and white.....

there is a difference.....not all blacks and whites have a struggle....

i'm black and i ain't had a struggle in my life.......

DQ 03-11-06 12:40 PM

The "white" struggle in my country is more towards Eastern European and Arabic immigrants. When law propositions are made (and possibly accepted) to teach Arabic in elementary school, I'm thinking: what the hell are we doing?

You lucky you don't have the language bullshit, our country is divided in two (Dutch and French side) and now they want to throw Arabic in there too. Hatred towards ethnic groups is definitely increasing over here because many white people see it as a struggle to get their child to study in their native language first of all, to have jobs immigrants take from them, to pay for healthcare of immigrants and so on and so on.

Every country has its bullshit, every race has its bullshit, every person has his share of a steaming pile of crap. Live with it.

White struggle for me is when the black guys get all the bitches.

My dad was beaten to death by a black man in his own house.....I did not sue the black man's family for something that he did because there was no reason to. The black man that killed my father is now in jail, just like all those slave owners are now dead.....just look at it as you got what you wanted, the slave owners are all dead :thumbup:™

Kill Whitey!!!!!

Wow.....you are really ignorant. I would usually just let this go, but you are really starting to piss me off. You really think that you are entitled to a cash reimbursement just because a member of your family was a slave? Well shit, why don't we just give out money to every single black family in the whole USA....I think that might make up for the fact that there was slaves a long ass time ago that just about 99.9999999999999999% of people are dead. What the hell entitles you to any reperation? Were you a slave? And what the hell do you know about pain? People are tortured every day, and I'm just talking about the torture that the army does to it's own soldiers. Soldiers are tortured in SERE school so they know what it is like so when they are captured, they won't give up info....and I'm sure that it's much more than just a little lashing every once in a while.....shit, I got a little lashing every once in a while by my own mother. It's ignorant ass black people like you that make people say that black people are lazy and always look for an easy way out......congradulations on contributing to all the stereotypes :thumbup:™

wow, fucking wow, all the black people in the us? fuck no, just all the black people who can trace their ancestry to slavery times, peole who heard their grandmother and great grandmother tell them fucking storied of how they were beat, and forced to work n shyt for less than dirt, if my grandmother(the current head of the family of course) were to get reperations for what happend to her mother, then my great grandmothers soul can rest, if you can think of anything other than reperations, that would rest my great grandmothers soul, knowing that all the work she did is finally getting paid for at full expense, then tell me fucker, and as for the people at war, thats your dumbass presidents fault, the same one who's grandad most likely owned some slave, and unless you sat around and heard stories from your grandma or great grandmother, about how they were beat, and forced 2 do shit they didnt want to for their whole fucking life, and got a decent meal once in a fucking lifetime, you you my friend need to shut the fuck up, you need to shut your fucking mouth because you have no fucking idea, no fucking idea, black people like me dude? black people like me!!! no fuck that fuck that shit to fucking hell yo, u gettin pissed of, you have no idea how fucking pissed i am right fucking now, i mcontributing to a stereotype by saying, that my grandmother who cant work anymore, and still has to take care of her 3 grandchildren deserves a fucking reparation for what happend to her and her mother, what she had to see when she was only a kid??? huh fucker, I'll have you fucking know dawg, that i work my fucking ass off, to show white mutha fukas like you that all black people arent fucking lazy, and stupid, because thats the only fucking thing you see on the news, you never see them talking about the blacks that are making something of themselves, so shut the fuck up mutherfucker because you have NO FUCKING IDEA, but its ok because im going to make something outta myself, im guaranteed for college, im gettin a fucking doctorate son, stereotype my ass, omfg im so fucking pissed yo, im goin all off topic n shyt, anyway like i said, you cant say anyfucking thing yo, im sorry about your dad, but its not my fault you didnt sue for emotional distress, thats your fault, but your dad was just beat to death, he prolly lived a good life tho, but my great grandmother, nah she was enslaved, and BEAT NEARLY TO DEATH, she eventually died of course, ANd my granmother had to watch her own mother get beat like that, so you my friend shut the fuck up, because you have NO FUCKING IDEA SON NO FUCKING IDEA, if you decided not to go to the army, you might go 2 jail for sometime but eventually youll get out, but if my grandma would have tried to leave she woould b shot dead, so SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOU HAVE NOTHING TO FUCKING SAY MOTHER FUCKER

Enygma 03-11-06 04:27 PM

Wow.....about 90% of the black people in the US right now can trace their heritage to a slave if they tried. Ok, Ok, Ok....say you are given reperations for your great grandmother being a slave :rolleyes:, who would you say should pay you? If you are saying that you should be payed by the governement, you are just contributing to the already huge deficit, and if you say that it's not your problem, guess who all the govenmental programs benefit? Did you know that the government will lower your intrest rate (by paying the difference) if you decide to buy a house just because there aren't many black home owners? Did you know that the no child left behind act was designed to help the inner city blacks make something of themselves at an even younger age. Did you know that you can get about 75% more of your tuition covered by grants and scholarships and shit like that just because of the color of your skin? I say that the government has been paying your ass for a long fucking time.....it's not my fault if you were to blind or ignorant to take advantage of it :thumbup:™

You deserve nothing for your great grandmother's distress......if she were still alive, I would say that she was entitled to some sort of reperation, but she's not, and there was no reperation paid to her when she was alive. I'm not saying that it's not fucked up, but your dumb ass is really saying that you deserve some sort of compensation for her loss.....what a fucking grub.

And if you honestly plan on making a difference, then fucking do it......it'll put threads like this to rest because you will be a fucking example of actually making it. And if you need help in getting some information on some of the "reperations" I was talking about, you can hit me up and I will show you how you can make all of your college dreams come true for little to no money at all......just because you are black.....and because I do not want to contribute to the ignorance of others :thumbup:™

Did you know that the government will lower your intrest rate (by paying the difference) if you decide to buy a house just because there aren't many black home owners?Im 16 years old, do i look like im going to be buying a house anytime soon, and im going to be going to college for at least 8 years by time im out ill be 26, byt time i buy a house ill be at least 27 or 28, ad i doubt that poilicy would still be around Did you know that the no child left behind act was designed to help the inner city blacks make something of themselves at an even younger age.No it was created for any youth to take advantage of it, as i went to a predominantly white elementary school (may i say it was a gifted magnet center, 100's took the test only 5 got in, me 1 other black dude and 3 white ppl) and that school was part of the "no child left behind policy Did you know that you can get about 75% more of your tuition covered by grants and scholarships and shit like that just because of the color of your skin?so can white people, as there are grants JUST for blacks there are grants JUSt for whites, trut me i do my research also I say that the government has been paying your ass for a long fucking time.....the government has been payin my ass as just as much as they pay yours, we dont use foodstamps, dont apply for welfare none of tha shyt and it's not my fault if you were to blind or ignorant to take advantage of it :thumbup:™blind and ignorant? no sir, i take advantage of every opportunity to grasp an advantage for my intellect, not the color of my skin, i have already been offered a scholarship to UIC because of my science project my feshman year son

You deserve nothing for your great grandmother's distressi know, but my grandmother does, and thats the point im trying to get across, and of course if she gets some she's going to give her baby some, not because i ask for it, but because she loves me......if she were still alive, I would say that she was entitled to some sort of reperation, but she's not, and there was no reperation paid to her when she was alive. I'm not saying that it's not fucked up, but your dumb ass is really saying that you deserve some sort of compensation for her loss.....what a fucking grub.no the fuck im not, im saying my granma should

And if you need help in getting some information on some of the "reperations" I was talking about, you can hit me up and I will show you how you can make all of your college dreams come true for little to no money at all......just because you are blackno not because im black, but because according to my ACT scores im smarte r than 93 percent of people who have taken the test, including thee whites, but oh wait dont tell me they higher your test scores if your black right.....and because I do not want to contribute to the ignorance of others :thumbup:™then stop talking

Enygma 03-11-06 06:47 PM

1st of all....that policy will still be around in ten years because there will still be a small amount of black home owners.

Second of all.....The no child left behind act was created so that all schools will challenge their students instead of just letting them pass without being able to read. The prodominately white school that you said you went to probably had no problem with challenging their students. The inner city prodominately black schools have teachers that worry more about being stabbed than teaching.....this was designed to make them schools better. And congradulations on your intellect. you really show it with your complete sentences and correct grammar :rolleyes:

Third.....there are not any grants for just white people. Name me one grant that is for just white people....and if by some chance you do find the KKK youth scholarship fund, I will show you about 1,000 scholarships that only black people qualify for.

Fourth.....The only reason the government has been paying my ass is because I work directly for it. I am glad to hear that you weren't on food stamps and welfare, neither was I.

Fifth.....you just contradicted yourself. You said in oyour previous statement that you don't use anything like welfare or food stamps to help you out, but now youare saying that you take advantage of every opportunity that comes across you? Come on dawg....

Sixth.....so we agree that your great grandma deserved some reperations

Seventh.....like I said, I hope you do make something of yourself.

Eighth......What I am saying is that I will show you a shit load of scholarships and grants that you will qualify for just because you are black. And learn how to form a statement, because what you just said is that you have a higher ACT score than 93% of people, including 3 white people. So basically, the top 7% are where all the white people place....except the three that you beat out of course :thumbup:™

Basically, you are making yourself look like an ass and you will not out wit me. I am the smartest person I have ever met and I have been in Mentally Gifted classes since first grade. So just shut your fucking mouth and deal with it :D

Fifth.....you just contradicted yourself. You said in oyour previous statement that you don't use anything like welfare or food stamps to help you out, but now youare saying that you take advantage of every opportunity that comes across you? Come on dawg....by advantages i dont mean shyt like welfare n shyt i mean if there is a college fair in town ill go, ill take iniciative, if i see the dean of admissions to a nice college ill spark a voncersation with him, shyt like that

Sixth.....so we agree that your great grandma deserved some reperations
yep, and since shes not here, my granmother should get em

Seventh.....like I said, I hope you do make something of yourself.
thanx

No out of EVERYONE in the us, who took the test, which is millions, since its required for college, the 3 ppl you are referring to are the people whom along with me, got a high enough score to get into the grammar school i went to

Basically, you are making yourself look like an ass and you will not out wit me I am the smartest person I have ever met.thats because you havent met me yet and I have been in Mentally Gifted classes since first grade.So have I So just shut your fucking mouth and deal with it :D :huh:

Have a fuckin cry. "oh boohoo, poor me. I only get a million benefits that arent straight cash. I need cash because my great grandmother was a slave once. So like... I need money so I can spend it on weed and a new bike."

The government done a shitload for black people. You gotta realize, all that is in the past. Im not saying forget about it, im just saying quit fucking whining because your life is fine now. My grandpa was a prisoner of war in world war 2... He was tortured, beaten, treated like shit... they fed him like once every two months. He went through hell for years... Does that mean I should get given money? No. Of course it doesnt. Money cant pay for pain and suffering. My grandpa is dead, but you could give him a million dollars and it wouldnt be enough to pay for what he went through.

Its the same with your ancestors. You dont deserve jack shit. If I was your great grandmother, I would be fuckin angry that some punk ass kid is trying to get paid for what I went through. Its straight up disrespectful. You didnt do anything to deserve that money.

∆ P E X X 03-11-06 11:31 PM

You guys just gotta understand one thing about "repairations". The premise is that the major companies like the cotton industry was built (literally) on the backs of slaves. It's not the generalization that some of us are running away with that it is a universal "government, give me money" thing - like unemployment, welfare, and 401k's are. It speaks to specific corporations and/or industries that wouldn't exist if not for slave labor.

Does this make it right is a whole different argument.

Young_law 03-11-06 11:39 PM

i never even thought of that ur right yo, this adds even more 2 the argument, but im spent, enygma wanna pick up on this 2morrow?

∆ P E X X 03-12-06 01:43 AM

The Law, lemme ask you a quick question, because I believe we can come to a common understanding on something important to the both of us.

What would repairations money 'make right' for you?

Young_law 03-12-06 01:50 AM

well before i say anything, let me say that im not saying I shouldn't get the reparations my grandma should get them

but knowing that my grandmawould be able to survive, and take care of the three grandchildren she takes care of without struggling, and that since we cant bring back my great grandmother, at least she can feel better knowing her mothers years of hard work has been paid for, and also my great grandmothers soul can R.I.P.

and apexx, may i add that is the question that should have been asked in the beggining, that would have avoided alot

I can understand those needs to see your family provided for, but I question that a check is going to let your great grandmothers soul rest in peace, no disrespect to her. Accepting a check in exchange for the torment your ancesters went through is putting a price tag on the suffering of your history, your lineage, and your self. Don't be dilluted by those who feel that 'slavery' is only physical labor - there's a high level of mental breaking required to even get someone to the point to be a "slave", like tying a brutally beaten pregnant woman to a tree and slitting her stomach open to let the unborn fetus fall to the ground where it is crushed underfoot in a forum that "new slaves" can witness and were therefore shocked into mental submission. Black fathers were (and still are) the number one threat to slave programming so a black father publically being pulled apart by horses in the presence of his wife and children in such a fasion was also a common, as were public rape-stranglings done at random. These are actions that took place on the "breaker" islands (aka, the west indies/carribean) before a single slave even made it to the US to program fear and subservience into us genetically. Breaker islands like the one I was born on.

All the checks in the world won't undo what tragedies have already happened and demeaning your worth by accepting money in exchange would belittle any 'struggle' you can name, which is one of many reasons that "repairations" is never going to see the light of day. I personally would feel insulted if someone offered me a check in place of my sense of values. I'd quicker rather see it put into the sub-standard school systems and afterschool programs to build our black children up, instead of having a youth taking a violence-promoting drug-pumping rapper as their rolemodel and repeating the cycle (of removing the father from his family) needed to "keep a slave a slave". But even still, what accepting that check would mean alone makes it no where even remotely near "not worth it" in my eyes.

I can see where your coming from, but from my grandmas position, if she was to get money, as compensation, but not as a trade in for what happend, nothing is going to change that, BUT it would make her feel better about the situation, also, it would help her financially, (not going to go into detail about that) its the least they can do

^^I suspect that's because she needs money. If you take money in exchange for anything (goods or services) - that's considered being "compensated". As a litmus test, ask your grandmother sometime if she would accept a check from the decendants of slave masters for her mother.

That's no different than you selling slaves your self.
