I'm still agin' it. If there are going to be reparations, then everybody
has to pay everybody else reparations for all the slaves that everyone
has in their family trees going back to the dawn of time. Lets each give
each other a million bucks and be done with it, whereupon we'll all be
back where we started.
If you punish sons for the sins of the fathers, then there can be
absolutely no expiration date on redemption for injustice.
