"How powerful did the Klan's political clout grow? In 1924, organized Klansmen marched through the streets of New York and attended the Democratic National Convention that nominated Woodrow Wilson for the presidency. After winning office, Woodrow screened the racist ode to the Klan "Birth of a Nation," a film produced by racist Hollywood producers. It was the first film ever screened at the White House."

"The Democratic Party should pay reparations to black Republicans who have suffered at the hands
of the KKK.
" Hear me out.
"Make no mistake, the Democrats and their allies in the Marxist Black Lives Matter organization are
moving this country toward a "national conversation" about reparations. "Side note: Have you noticed that whenever we have a race-related "national conversation," it always
ends up being sanctimonious, Marxist tenured professors lecturing the rest of us about how evil and
racist and privileged we are, and if you deny it, it proves you're racist? And the solution to the evil
racism that you exhibit is to take more of your money and give it to Democrats in government where
they pay for big programs that enrich those tenured professors, make inner-cities even worse, and
then ten years later we are poised for another "national conversation"?
"Yeah, well, they're getting us ready for another one of those "national conversations" and this time it
will be about reparations for slavery.
" Before that conversation gets driven down our throats by the Harris-Biden presidential ticket, how
about Republicans get in front of this issue?
"How about instead of moving toward reparations for slavery (which has challenges logistically and
judicially), we move for something a little more tangible?
" I mean, let's face it, it's nearly impossible to identify who, specifically, would be responsible for
paying these reparations, right? Descendants of the slave owners? OK, try to trace that out, I
suppose. But, logically, their reparation payment should only go to the descendants of those African-Americans their ancestors owned.
Also, isn't it unjust to punish a person for the sins of their fathers? I mean, this is a fundamental
understanding the Western world has always embraced. But the Left would have us punish, through
taxation, the great, great, great-grandchildren for slavery. " . . .
Sooooo; the guy on the ground would owe reparations to this rioter who just kicked him in the head, right?
This oppressor must pay for all previous generations' actions:
Don't think for a minute that reparations will ever make up for anything; it will never end. There are too many Betos out there. TD
