Mjd33 Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 Is Calling for reparations for black people. So is Elizabeth warren. Here’s my Q..... The chinese brought here as slaves to build the railroads, most notably in California ... are they entitled to reparations? Do you hear them demanding reparations ? How bout the Irish? The Irish were purposely starved off their land by the English with the Irish potato famine sending 100’s of thousands of Irish to America who were treated lower than dogs when they got here. Are the Irish demanding reparations? Maybe some of these black leaders here should take a visit to Saudi Arabia, who’s royal families benefited greatly from slavery. Maybe they can confront a prince in Riyadh, let’s if they come back with two hands, if they come back at all. Also, Does Oprah, Obama, and Denzel get reparations? Finally, Who’s paying these reparations? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolebull813 Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 Identity politics. And they are being so far extreme and out of the mainstream that it will push away center and left of center voters into the arms of some of liberal that isn’t as kooky. Harris sounds like a dictator in heels. I thought Hillary was as bad as it could get. This round of dems makes her look like a right winger 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they were treated like garbage compared to their white counter parts. But you don’t hear them bitching 150 years later. But Strobridge yielded and the Central Pacific tested out 50 Chinese workers in 1865, Obenzinger said. They were among the 50,000 to 60,000 Chinese living in California that year, hailing from Sacramento, San Francisco, and the gold-mining towns of the Sierra Nevada, according to Obenzinger. The experiment a success, the railroad hired additional groups of 50, but the Chinese labor pool in California soon ran out, Obenzinger said. So the Central Pacific arranged with labor contractors to bring workers directly from China, he said. They arrived by boat beginning in July 1865. Two years later, between 80 and 90 percent of the Central Pacific workforce was Chinese; the rest was of European-American descent, mostly Irish, Obenzinger said. Some 8,000 Chinese focused on building the tunnels while another 3,000 laid track. Disparities between Chinese and white workers set the stage for the June 1867 work stoppage. The Chinese had seen a pay increase from $31 to $35 per month by Spring 1867, but it fell short of the $40 monthly salaries whites were pulling in, Obenzinger said. They were also toiling longer hours, often under dangerous conditions, whipped or restrained if they left to seek employment elsewhere. And unlike whites, the Chinese had to foot the bill for their lodging, food, and tools, according to the project. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chinese aren’t under the “oppressed” category according to the left/dems last time I checked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mjd33 Posted February 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 And as horrific and unacceptable slavery was ..... it’s Happening TODAY in Libya thanks to hillary Clinton. But im sure all of you that voted for her and wanted her to be president will turn a blind eye. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.usatoday.com/amp/895853001 but Trump’s the real bad guy right ? @AztecPadre @DBP66 @Sportsnut @SOCIntellectualProperty @World Citizen Back in the 2012 presidential campaign, Vice President Biden told a group of African Americans that the GOP was going to "put you all back in chains." But it turned out that it was Clinton’s policies that led to black people being sold. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horsefly Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 The basis of this entire thread is wrong because Kamala is not seeking for reparations in the traditional sense.
