Maybe after you explain why it had to be repealed if it wasn't binding.Quote:

Specifically, how far back do we only go for reparations and anything further back in history is just out of luck?
Not sure about who signed what with regards to "40 acres and a mule" - and not going to take the time to look it up.
I know which political party ended slavery... and which political party supported slavery and birthed the KKK though.
According to Neveragain, the Republicans signed it into law.Quote:

The same Party ended slavery, supported the Civil Rights Act and Woman's Sufferage. The other Party was against all of it.Quote:

Literally gave you a link that explained the entire history but, like the man child that you are, you were too lazy to actually read it.Quote:

Well, let's see there were the Native Americans, some 10,000 plus of whom died on the Trial of Tears alone. They were frequently 'indentured'Quote:

Really there's been several instances of slavery or indentured servitude in the history of the United States all of whom have already received reparations of some form or another. The current obsession with evening the scale is wanting to tip it so far in the direction of minorities that the likelihood of it ever coming to fruition is likely nill.
Oh yeah, Democrats' war on American Indians. Thanks for the reminder that Democrats loved to kill American Indians when they weren't busy enslaving black people.Quote:

it's almost as if politics change with time, or something.
