I have went back and re-read this thread. No one even remotely hinted at wanting to fuck a 79 year old woman. Quite the opposite in fact. All posters found her quite repulsive.

It is amazing how off track a thread can go!!!! Reparations and fucking Pelosi!!!! So, is Nancy Pelosi's pussy the only thing Black men are going to get as a reparations payment? Damn, that would be one way to put a quick end to any further discussions.

I don’t know, man. It sure seems like you have a hard-on for her.
Black men are going to tell you to keep Nancy Pelosi's pussy. They are going to want their 40 acres and a mule and 170 years of accrued interest.
Tell them this isn't 1865 and those people are long dead. This country needs to stop living in the past.

40 acres was a land confiscation military order given by the vengeful General Sherman. It was an unconstitutional act that he had no business making. You can't just take away land from people and give it to others and forego due process. The courts later rightly ruled on its unconstitutionality.

Yeah they claimed to own all the land from Canada down to Mexico. So let's give it all back to them. That's feasible.
And the native tribes that had their land stolen and people enslaved by the stronger native tribes before the arrival of whitey can put in their claims too. Sounds like fun to sort out, right?

There you go being hyperbolic again. No, not "all land" by any stretch. Some treaties and land deals were legitimate. But many were made with a cavalry troop and a "sign away your land or we will starve your tribe into extinction" choice. Litterally.

Add to that the treaties that have been conveniently ignoredand violated when minerals were found.

But then your view certainly does not surprise me.

You can start by just abiding by the treaties the federal government signed.

But I see you have the Thomas Jefferson view of people.

Why start at that point in time? Native tribes had been stealing land from each other long before the dreaded european dominated America. How far back would you to take this?

As I said, start with the supposedly legal treaties the US government signed.

If you do not believe those treaties should be honored for land, fishing, water rights, antiquities, promised (as identified in the treaties) health care, equipment, education, etc., then why do I not have the right to ignore my neighbor's land deed?

Most of them are not 300 years ago. Not even close.

And to turn your question around: how long would someone have to occupy your home before we argue "that is old history now, we can't give you your house back without harming other people"? A month? A year? Five years?
