I always here black people cry about how they are still owed. Owed what? Most point back to slavery days and say they are owed compensation for that. Problem is 99.9% of blacks have no clue how they decended from slaves or even which African country they came from.
Ask a black where they came from and they'll say Africa, like Africa is a fucking country. Most couldn't name 3 countries in Africa. Most will name south Africa first then draw a blank when trying to name two more.
Now I hear blacks hoping that Barrack becomes president so that he can create a bill to replay blacks from slavery. WTF! How in the world do any of these guys think they are deserved one red penny?

We owe nothing to the current generation of black people.
We took them out of the jungle and today they live among us as equals with a far better life than they could ever dream of back home in africa.
If their ancestors were still alive, the people who enslaved them would owe them somthing, but we owe NOTHING to the current generation of black people at all.
And What do they do when they get the power over white people? LOOK at South Africa... Black people are racist to white people there now they have the power and numbers, White people are leaving South Africa rapidly due to the ludicrous level of racism.
Any black person who thinks their owed somthing because of what happend to their ancestors should go back to live in africa then ask for somthing.

Reparations in the form of $$$ to those of African heritage in the USA, is a poltical football with no actual legal standing in 99.999% of the possible cases. In other words , it is not a real issue at this time.
I support Obama for President because of what the man is capable of and could care less about his bi-racial background.I do find it odd how the 50% ( his white, blonde mom) "white side" is lost and he is labeled as "black". One guy in my gym was willing to admit he felt Obama was smart, but couldn't bring himself vote for a black man for President.he had voted for Hillary in the primary so his dislike of Obama was not all that poltical by his own admission. I then asked him how he felt about affirmative action for blacks. He said he was dead set against giving anyone , anything just for their race. I then looked back at him and said that race was , the only real reason he had for NOT voting for Obama. He smiled and simply said, good point , and walked away.

Dumb violent behavior is not limited to one ethnic group.
I sincerely believe one should judge everyone as a human being, based on what they do and how they behave, not be lumped into one package

We took them out of the jungle ...
A major point here is that "we" did not actually take Africans out of the jungle. People long dead now did that, and white americans living today have no responsibility for it.

Sorry man, but the Chinese appears to be closer to achieving that in the nearest future.

they are owed a swift slap to the back of the head if they believe they are owed anything. I havent heard this kind of ignorance in a long time but im sure its still out there.

We took them out of the jungle and today they live among us as equals with a far better life than they could ever dream of back home in africa.
exactly, they should be thankful that the white men brought them over to usa where they could live a better life today otherwise they would still be in africa. the entire contenent is full of 3rd world countries where people are starving and getting killed daily. Ask some black in america if they want to go back to that ::)

Amen.
I am of German heritage. Perhaps the current-day Italians owe me something because some of my long-ago ancestors were done wrong by the Roman Empire? Same concept.

People in general--of ALL races--need to stop bitching. I can't stand hearing people whine-about anything. Sure, some people have hard circumstances. Big deal, suck it up and use that hardship to make yourself a better person.

Thanks to white corporate crime, corruption, lying, outsourcing..etc etc.. whites nor america have nothing to give to themselves let alone any one else. I do however love how Joe Gefilthe Fish jew walks away with 15 BILLION doolars sent to israel every year (Eh...complain about that). Right now america (whitie) is borrowing 3 BILLION per day from China just to stay afloat, hundreds of BILLIONS from Japan, BILLIONS from Australia (since when does their money have value), 4 TRILLION from Saudi Arabia, gets 75% of its food from Central and South America, all of its clothing from CHINA, almost all of its electronic equipment from Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Singapore, all of its rubber goods form the Philippines, most of its natural resources from AFRICA, all of its seafood from South East Asia, Indonesia and Malaysia and is dependent on the worlds nations to keep it ALIVE. As it stands right now the ignorant minority in america know as the caucasians, are shitting in their underwear at the thought of financial collapse, hunger, lost homes and property, job loss and insecurity because white mad men who have occupied the whitehouse and have enacted laws and regulations that are CRIPPLING the masses and driving everyone into POVERTY...and all you can think of is to spew some race related hate message...HAHAHAHAH
Well enjoy your time to spew...because in a moment you will be on a soup line like so many others trying to survive. Non longer sitting on mommy's computer playing klansman and voicing who you hate. Keep an eye on the financial markets EVERYDAY as opposed to this message board...SEE REALITY FOR A CHANGE.

the only blacks who are owed anything are the ones who complain about how bad they have it. we owe them a boat ride back to africa. don't get me wrong, anyone from anywhere that comes to north america to contribute and work hard has my respect. the ones that play the victim card can f## off

8) Did you ask any black people why 95 percent of them are voting for OBAMA ? just a thought !
-
I think we owe all the blacks slaves from the old days. So whoever we owe they should go collect. Of course they are now 150 years old so I don't think the line will be very long.

that's where you're making a mistake like all the dumbfucks like you; he s black before he's white, and he often proved to be kinda despising and full of scorn about whites.
What a moron you are goddamn.

What a bunch of moronically idiotic bullshit. You have to train to be an idiot to get to this level.
-
What's the purpose of this thread? So everybody has a chance to vent or say more bigotry about blacks?
Most smart black folks don't bitch about that. Of course a couple of dumbasses who happen to be black think they are owed something, but they will never get it so i don't know why it would bother anyone.
that's where you're making a mistake like all the dumbfucks like you; he s black before he's white, and he often proved to be kinda despising and full of scorn about whites. What a moron you are goddamn.
Well, genetically he's as much white as black. Put him in Africa and everybody there will view him as the white guy, that would reflect on his personal position on his "race". But in America if you are biracial you are viewed as black, so it's no miracle he identifies more with black men.
-
Thats what I said the other day when one stole my car.
I yelled; What are you doing. She said I'm gh15 and you
owe me.
just kidding
I will say this.
There are black men I respect ONLY because they didnt
bitch about what the white man took from them.
They busted there ass and made life good.
I sometimes run into an uneducated kid that needs
schooling in the "family" way of life.
I dont clown him for being stupid, I blame it on his
parents that kept telling him the white mans the enemy.

He identifies with the African American culture and agenda, that's the issue, not his genetic race.

Are you saying I owe you money?

Had whites tried to roam the African environment during the Jamestown days, taking unwilling people from their habitats, they would've been slaughtered as quickly as they could supply more people to be killed.
Slaves were obtained at African markets, "bought" from (black) African brokers. There are still sellers of slaves all over Africa, the Caribbean, Arab countries and parts of Asia. Very few of these brokers, if any, are white. As a matter of fact, whites have done more to end the crime of slavery than all other races, combined times 10.

Many of you should watch Roots and I guarantee you you will not be saying such idiotic things.
-
I want my 40 acres and I want my mule.
I'll then parcel out the land and sell it to the Arabs and Chinese for millions of dollars.
And the mule, you ask?
I'll set him in my front yard so all you silly white folks can come by and kiss my ass!! ;D

Barrack Yomama will never be president. But even if he did, he would have to go just the opposite and avoid showing favoritism to the porch monkeys. The shit would hit the fan if he starts putting nig nogs in positions of power and black owned companies start landing Gov't contracts and such. I almost hope he becomes president just to watch him get grinded down and fail miserably, hopefully taking his own life in the process.

For Rich Elitist Black People, like "Phillip Banks" ;D
On the real, Reparations come in the form of education, you go to school, and then build your community up, instead of wanting the government to clean up your neighborhood (who do you think floods the neighborhood with drugs).
Blacks were supposed to get 40 acres and a mule, but that was shot down, giving newly freed blacks land was too radical. Meanwhile, after the WWII, Japanese survivors of US concentration (interment) camps were given a sizable monetary Reparation, then Jews were given HUGE monetary Reparations, including Israel...While this is going on, blacks are been lynched, Emmitt Till has a cotton gin fan put on his neck and placed in a River, knowing full well blacks can't swim, let alone with a 50 pound fan around their neck...
Damn, I don't think there is a need for Reparations come to think of it. You know, Americans (Black and White) are very ignorant of this institution called slavery, that has existed for the better part of America's history. We only know the basics, but it was a lifestyle. Just as many of you are used to getting up and going to work, there were people accustomed to getting up and working for free, women accustomed to giving up the cooter for free (especially for horny young white boys-who they grew up with), and then nursing the white babies on their pregnant tit for free. This country was built on free labor, and free sex to alleviate the days hard business...
ANd that is just a minor point, considering how now alot of the Oil companies are tied to everything now, many insurance companies now were tied to this business, and made large sums of money on insuring the boats that carried slaves...
You blacks are not smart for being the most pimped people on this earth...

Obama for president

dont flatter yourself, such a fine specimen of the black race wouldnt go near 'her'.

Had whites tried to roam around the African environment during the Jamestown days, taking unwilling people from their habitats, they would've been slaughtered as quickly as they could supply more people to be killed.
In the beginning it was like that, but then they decided to do away with the "middle man", and just take the slaves...

Now vote Obama :)

Yes, Roots taught me that white men who were at sea for weeks chased down native Africans on foot.
Of course we all know that white men are much better at running than black Africans.

Surely we owe blacks for inventing such things as the theory of relativity, laws of motion, calculus, the computer, tv, auto mobile, internet, WWW, theory of evolution etc.?
If you ask me, their demands are well grounded.
-
I could explain but none of you that didn't already understand would get it.
It's not a matter of what black people are 'owed' but a matter of what they didn't get. I fully agree that black people aren't owed jack shit and don't personally know anyone who was a slave or owned any. To be clear, I mean slave in the traditional sense not a crappy job, sex games or any other weird interpretation of the word.

"Some African American Inventors
I picked up the essence of this article some years ago. Not sure exactly who wrote the original, but I did research all the names to make sure the information and details are accurate. This article presents the argument that discrimination against African American has no justification based on logic of reason.
As the story goes, a group of white people became angry about African Americans living in the United States, so they joined together and decided wished that African Americans had never been brought to America. After wishing very hard this group of white people found their wish had come true and the United States had never ever had any black people. They breathed a great sigh of relief. " At last", they thought, "no more crime, no more drugs, no more violence, no more welfare. Glory be, no black people!"
Well let us take a look at life in the United States had never been any black people here? For starters there would not even be a United States as we know it. The agricultural economy upon which the English Colonies and United States were founded, was dependent on slave labor supplied by enslaved Africans and their descendants.
There would be no cities with tall skyscrapers in the United States because Alexander Miles, a black man, invented the elevator, and without elevators, one would have great difficulty reaching high higher floors.
Driving cars would be very difficult because Richard Spikes, a black man who invented the automatic transmission and other mechanisms related to automobiles would not have been here.
Joseph Gammel, another black man, invented the supercharger for internal combustion engines. A black man named Garret A. Morgan invented the traffic light . There would be no rapid transit system because its precursor was the electric trolley, invented by a black man named Elbert R. Robinson. Even if there were streets on which cars and a rapid transit system could operate, these streets would be cluttered with debris, because a black man named Charles Brooks invented the street sweeper.
There would be difficulty in school classes because a black man, John Love, invented the pencil sharpener. William Purvis, a black man, invented the fountain pen. Lee Burridge, yet another black man invented the type writing machine.
W.A. Lovette, a black man, invented the advanced printing press. Now even if everyone could write letters, articles and books, they could not be transported by mail because William Barry, a black man, invented the postmarking and canceling machine, William Purvis, a black man, invented the hand stamp and yes, another black man, Philip Downing, invented the letter drop.
Lawns would look awful because Joseph Smith, a black man, invented the lawn sprinkling system and John Burr, a black man, invented the lawn mower. Your homes you would be uncomfortable, poorly ventilated and heated because a black man named Frederick Jones invented the air conditioner and a black woman named Alice Parker invented the heating furnace. Homes would also be filthy because a black man, Thomas W. Stewart, would not have been here to invent the mop and Lloyd P. Ray, a black man, would not have been here to invent the dust pan.
When you return home from work, your children would meet you at the door barefooted and shabbily dressed in unkempt clothing. What could one expect because Jan E. Matzelinger, a blackman, would not have been here to invent the shoe lasting machine, Walter Sammons would not have invented the comb, nor would have Lydia O. Newman have invented the brush, nor would have Sarah Boone have invented the ironing board, nor would have George T. Samon have invented the clothes dryer; all of these people were African Americans.
And how about dinner time? Food would have spoiled because a black man, John Standard, could not have invented the refrigerator; and, there would be no light to eat your spoiled meals because the filament within the light bulb was invented by a black man.
Without black men and women, the United States, if it had managed to come into existence, would just be another under-developed country of the World. With more poverty, more disease, more pain and less commerce; which translates into a much lower standard of living for all U.S. Citizens.
The moral of this fantasy is twofold. African Americans have historically suffered from extreme discrimination and injustice. Since these black people were able to invent and contribute so much under discrimination and injustice, what might some other blacks have contributed if discrimination had never existed?

Sorry but this is bullshit.
The English created what you know now as the United States, how can ANYONE make the ridiculous statement "For starters there would not even be a United States as we know it". Are you THAT naive?
During the slave years, black slaves were basically industrial tools, like machinery.

I didn't write the article. It's one man's opinion but it seems pretty impossible to believe America could have grown in that time period without slavery.
Only posted the article so lonleyme could see that black invention didn't begin & end with George Washington Carver.

OK, some good points in the article, but that particular assertion caught my eye as being absolute bull.

I only glanced at it.
Any explanation wouldn't really make sense to most non-minorities. Being in the majority skews people's perspective too much on simple matters.
-
the majority of inventors are erroneous, its the inventions that count and guess what necissity breeds invention...somebody would have come up with each and every one of those inventions sooner or later and if not those ones that did the same job...I agree with US wouldnt be the nation it is without slavery b/c of the agriculture but you also wouldnt have as much crime and social dependency either.
-
It's true that black have contributed their fair share to the USA, but that article is crap. I doubt it was printed anywhere beside on some website. I check out the elevator and the fridge "inventors", and even though they contributed to later adaptations they were not the inventors.

But we still owe blacks for inventing such things as the theory of relativity, laws of motion, calculus, the computer, tv, auto mobile, internet, WWW, theory of evolution etc. don't we?
The "Black Nationalism" people say this is true and apparently blacks are the true Israelites and that all English monarchs until early modern times were black.
As seen on Louis Theroux's "Weird Weekends".

Some of you white guys really need to get pass the "I am superior because I am white). This is silly sarcasm, you had nothing to do with these things either. Stop riding on the coat tails of people that came before you.

If you were any better than anyone on GetBig you would have invested your time wisely and invented something other than that BS you keep pushing above.
Funny how some people want to be identified for the positive things someone in their ethnic group has done but they won't claim the bad.
I always hear some silly white guy say "yeah we (white people) invented toilet paper and everyone's ass is cleaner because of it" but the same dude won't say things (with that prideful confidence) like, "we introduced drugs or organized crime into this country and ripped it apart I bet your race could'nt do that.
Don't get me wrong I hear other races (Africans, Asians, Middle Easterns Europeans and whomever I missed) do it too but not like on this site. "The white man did this..., if it were'nt for the white man that..." Oh STFU already and go get some punani! You are the problem and you are pushing BS!

There is an idiot there who believes a pasty faced ginger man by the name of Henry VIII of England (King of England) was BLACK!
Haha!

It's a problem. We spend so much time calling each other homos that any serious political discussion is impossible. Here everyone tries to be so polite/smart that they skirt around the issue. No amount of attacks on Obama's politics can avoid the fact that his race is an issue.
-

No I don't think so.
Ok let me clear this up and I have posted this many times before.
Crack Cocaine was not invented by American Blacks just like Alcohol was not invented by Native Americans
but both of these substances have wreaked havoc in those cultures/communities.
I don't think either substance was intentionally introduced with the purpose to distroy either cummunity.
Just like the Anglo/American diet has also wreaked havoc on these same ethinic groups. The original African and Native American diets/food did not contain the ingredients that the Anglo Europeans diet did. Whether it was forced or introduced to them it was detrimental to their health but in order to assimilate with their European counter parts health was put at risk and they indulged in the many practices that their oppressers either introduced or forced upon them in order to survive.
Certainly you do not deny that every vice in America today and in previous times were brought to this country by Europeans or by European influence?
Tobacco
Alcohol
Prostitution
Gambling
Drugs
My request is that those white folk that want to claim everything that is historically positive as theirs to also be as passionate about claiming the historical negatives as well.
And another thing please stop blaming every black person for what one or even many have done. this is why I don’t blame my fiancée (She is white btw) for what whites have done even to my grandparents way back when. They told me horrific accounts of injustices done to them but I don’t hold my soon to be wife accountable for those folk and they could have been related.
Judge me as an individual please, although I know its easier to blame an entire group than to blame the individual but that friend is done out of ignorance.
HM out!
-

Tobacco FALSE, actually originally came from native American Indians.
Alcohol FALSE, native American Indians and cultures the world over have created alcoholic beverages prior to European expansion to the Americas.
Prostitution FALSE, again nearly every culture has examples of prostitution.
Gambling FALSE, again nearly every culture has examples of gambling.
Drugs FALSE ...

We are talking here in The United States of America.
Tabacco- Maybe but you really need to talk to the natives first they have a different story but if thats how you see it fine just don't put the blame on blacks
Alcohol- the europeans brought it here and abused its use and corupted America with organized crime c'mon no.
Prostitution- The europeans have a finger on spreading this device
Gambling- I will give you this even though in the USA the native american was not privy to the monetary gains until just recently-true?
Drugs- Now remember I was talking about the start of drugs in America (and let me clarify this) for recreational use-true?
btw the point is these vices did not start with the black (African descendant black man) truth!?
My point is;
Stay off my back man I am doing what I am supposed to do as an American! I am not doing drugs, I take care of my family, I pay my taxes and have defended my country and I have excellent credit!
No I personally do not need reparation but I do want equality and for the most part (barring a few inoramuses here and there) I have it and I have not been hindered but many people of color have been hindered from the American dream simply because the are different. Case and point; I bought 16 acres in a place where only traditional families (roads and highways named after them) share that commodity/privilege but they squeezed me off a few because I was forunate to have the money at the time ( no respectable capitalist will turn down good money). Let me tell you I still to this day get dirty looks when we have our land subsidie and provisioning board meetings. Like "why do you even have land here Nigg?" (just my assessment)
The old farts don't think I should even own land in this part of the state (old slavery town) even though many of them (if not all) inherited what they own (!00+ acres) many were forced to stop farming and take govt annuitiy payments I just wanted land for my kids to run around freely and have some goats and chickens to play with and even veggie gardens but they hate that about me and find every way to haev the sheriff come out to invesitgate some complaint which have always been unfounded..
Point is racism is still alive and well. I don't bother anyone but I still get kicked and it has to be because I am black and whatsmore self reliant/sufficient.
I have served this country in times of war, I pay my taxes, I raise my kids to be productive citizens, my yard/land is clean and well maintained, i treat my women with the utmost respect but it's never enough for some white folk (men).
What is a Black man to do?
-
Judging by this thread, I think it's safe to say that race is no longer an issue in our country.

Woah! What? I'm not blaming ANY of this on blacks, I'm just provide a rebuttal to your assertions.
Alcohol consumption has been around long before the Babylonians! I quote:
"Beer was the major beverage among the Babylonians, and as early as 2,700 BC they worshiped a wine goddess and other wine deities."
China even EARLIER:
"The earliest evidence of alcohol in China are wine jars from Jiahu which date to about 7000 BC. This early drink was produced by fermenting rice, honey, and fruit."
Also note, Wasp's have been drinking the alcohol in fermenting apples for millions of years!
Prostitution has existed in America since the Mesoamerican's existed! LOOOOOONG before any white Europeans came.
6000 years ago brothels were legal in Greece:
"Solon instituted the first of Athens' brothels (oik'iskoi) in the 6th century BC"
Alcolol = drugs, ergo I recursively refute this by my references for alcohol pre-European-America.

We digressed brother chill out, I am talking about these practices becoming vices in America and the current problems that exists from these vices and who is the blame for introducing these vices.
You are correct as far as history goes, I know Europeans have been getting drunk and I know the far easterners have been drugging it up before rice was discovered and I also know punani has been sold from the beginning.
Besides my rebuttal was for this "Don Miracle" guy's Red Herring question: Did the white man "introduce" crack to fuck the blacks, Hustle Man?
My answer to that was I don't think so and then I went on...
HM out!
-
My honest guess is that vices have existed since the beginning of their recreational use.
For example, I drink alcoholic beverages, I am not abusive when I do, nor am I an alcoholic.
My sources show alcohol has been consumed recreationally for thousands of years, pre-dating any Caucasians being in the Americas. I also believe that these people were susceptible (if not more) to the use of alcohol and drugs to a chronic level.
Alcoholic beverages existed in Mesopatamia, so ergo (in my opinion) so existed alcoholics, and 5000 years before that, the same story in ancient China.
-
well according to these black people they are still owed about three fiddy . . .

HM and a couple of others and myself had a very civil discussion on this topic awhile back. It's on this board somewhere.
Blacks are owed jack shit, nothing. The ones that use that excuse for being racist and blaming "the man" for holding them down, will never go anywhere in life.
All people need to start getting some personal responsibility and quit fucking whining about what is "owed" or who is holding them down.
This doesn't apply to illegal aliens, they don't belong here and should be shot on site.

Of course blacks aren't 'owed' anything, that's silly. I just find it funny how people pretend there isn't a majority advantage.

I don't think there is pretending. There is a majority advantage. If I ran for councilman in South Central I am sure I would not get elected. Why?
Majority Advantage.

Well, i think there is. The only thing that bothers me is that some people seem to think the majority advantage is so big.
E.g. asians are a minority as well and they have a higher income than whites. For black american men, the mean income has actually gone down compared to the previous generation. While i think most agree that the level of racism has gone down and blacks have more opportunities now.
Black women are performing better than black men. And they are equally "black", aren't they? So my conclusion is that the problem is not genetics, or racism, or a majority advantage, rather cultural factors.
For most jews, asians, and a part of the white population academic performance is highly regarded. While it seems to me that for a large part of blacks the ideal is to get quick money through sports, entertainment, crime (?)...
As long as people think that "outside factors" are still so important, there probably won't be much improvement. The change has to come from within and not by putting the blame on others.
-

Myopic view point at best.
Speaking from my experience and the black families I know, most want their kids to have the same opportunities as afforded to their caucasian or asian peers.

Of course everyone will say that. But in reality there are differences in the upbringing of the kids (i'm talking in general, not necessarily for the people you know).
Quick google search:
According to The Center for the Study of Sport and Society at Northeastern University, a poor African American family is seven times more likely to encourage a male child into sports than a white amily.

I was kidding about the crack comment, Hustle Man. I wanted to see if you'd take the bait. :)
For the record, we can thank Pablo Escobar for the timing of crack. He was a brilliant distributor of the shit, single-handedly driving the American coke price down from $100+ per gram of 50% product to $40 per gram of 85% pure product. This is fact.
Needless to say, it didn't take an evil white genius to create a street form of "freebase" to completely hook the demand line. As a matter of fact, 25 years later, you can safely say that it's done more to ruin our cities than all other problems combined.
Again, whites have played only a minor role in this mess, yet many blacks seem to feel that whites were the creators of crack. Even more ridiculous is that it was done supposedly to keep blacks down. Yet if that were true, wouldn't it be a great reason to stay the fuck OFF of the shit?

I hope you are not suggesting that only black youth talk this way? If so, you are way out of touch with reality and the same goes for the shiny rims. I see this behavior and speech is common among youth of our day not peculiar to one race of people.

What I am suggesting however is the unspoken, unexplained code of built up anger by rejecting rap as crap for this reason. The whole concept of how the hip-hop be bop hype rap was created very spontaneously out of the destitute poverty poison streets is a in your face way for guess what "urban americans" to violently express themselves. Their whole slick jive about what is the GIFT OF GAB GIBBERISH is so old and sarcastically viewed by everyone else besides THEM that they are in denial about why tactics such as profiling still exists. One example that takes things to a symbolicly embarrassing example is why there is and has been a major bookstore text that has been in circulation sine that memorable 21st century year called the 2006 which was obviously titled,
ALI RAP:The 1st Heavyweight Champion of.......... (mouthing off by talking in such a rapper type of street lover way as a natural born black criminal killer)

CJ I think you are wrong and I know the "90%" was just a way of saying most that you have encountered. I live in a racially and culturally diverse neighborhood many kids today speech that hip hop jive talk. Most of the time I can't tell what race a kid belongs to unless I see their face because hip hop is in nowadays. I am sure they all will grow out of it eventually.
