BET co-founder calls for $14T in reparations for black Americans Johnson also weighed in on the "tragic situation" of George Floyd By Evie FordhamFOXBusiness BET co-founder Robert L. Johnson called for $14 trillion in reparations for every descendant of African American slaves as "atonement" on Monday following the death of George Floyd. "Is $14 trillion too much to ask for the atonement of 200 plus years of brutal slavery, de facto and de jure government-sponsored social and economic discrimination and the permanent emotional trauma inflicted upon black Americans by being forced to believe in a hypocritical and unfulfilled pledge that 'all men are created equal'?"

Buffalo_Gal Posted June 2, 2020 Posted June 2, 2020 (edited) I can't help but think the Israelis have it right with mandatory national military service. Seems a lot of these young people have an extreme need for discipline (and patriotism) in their lives. Looting, rioting, and insurrection really aren't a great life plan.

Government force to impose quarantines (on healthy, innocent populations): ? Government force to restrict hours on private enterprises (that are obeying the law and not engaging in any criminal activity): ? Military force to enforce curfews, dispel assembly, and put down looting/civil unrest (against populations that are engaged in widespread criminality and illegality): ? Seems pretty straightforward to me, though I don't like city wide curfews as a general rule.

Hedge Posted June 2, 2020 Posted June 2, 2020 The same people who thought it was totally fine for police to enforce social distancing and shut down businesses are freaked out by force being used to stop riots, looting, destruction of personal property, and murder. The false equivalency in the Leftist nutbags is an amazing thing to behold. 1 2 1

Again the DA came out before all the riots and said evidence supports no criminal charges. It's happened for as long as time. It's upsetting to think about but it's just a fact. I didn’t hear the DA say that. Do you have a link? 1
