>> by quit bashing their culture and character. I do not and never would acknowledge any debt. My father and his father, and mother, came to this world with NOTHING. Same for my mother. Surely, you cannot argue that this alleged 'debt' somehow pierces the veil of a net estate that was zero. The entire concept is so absurd it is crazy to be even discussing it. You simply cannot have people who, delivered at birth, inherit debt. Whether it has actual debt attributes or not. A 1 minute old baby owes nothing to no one. Ever. There is no way you can change that retroactively and still regard yourself as a proponent of the rule of law. I don't like using the term in a discussion with you (because I now you're not) but it is both stupid and ignorant conceptually. I would say "crazy" under-describes the notion. And the only black people who would support are street people who would say or do anything to put money in their pockets. It seems ridiculous to me that you would promote enslaving people as repayment to descendants of slaves for things their forebears did or in some cases did. I'm done on this one. It is just far too much leftist crazy talk to waste anymore time on.

>> I suggested earlier that you might start by according their progeny some dignity by acknowledging the debt and by quit bashing their culture and character. The black culture, like the white culture, has good and bad people operating within in it. The good deserve praise, the bad deserve bashing. Character, same concept. Lumping all black people together is just another form of liberal racism. These are distinct individuals who are responsible for their own circumstances.
