Reparations Demands in New York
While regular Americans reflect on the greatness of this remarkable country as we approach its 250th birthday, moonbats twist its history into a pageant of shame to justify looting on a massive scale. Gateway Pundit reports from New York, where both the state and NYC are moving forward with “reparations” — i.e., direct cash handouts for being black, justified by America’s injustice:
“It shouldn’t only be a check, but it should start with a check,”– Brooke Lean

State of New York Hearing: Reparations for Slavery Only Form of ‘True Justice’
Black New Yorkers attending a state commission studying remedies for racism said they were due cash reparations for slavery and other past injustices.
The New York “State Community Commission on Reparations Remedies” hearing follows Gov. Kathy Hochul signing a bill in 2023 for a commission to study slavery in New York state and examine various forms of compensation.
“We need $800,000 for each foundational black American. That’s simple,” Aubrey Muhammud, one of the attendees, told Fox News Digital. “That’s — in New York — that’s about the cost of living that’ll get you a home or a small business or for you to recover from any financial duress.”
Al Sharpton now says Trump is holding the UFC event so that we can go back to the times when slave owners made slaves fight for entertainment.

Reparations start with a cheque:
FOX News caught up with activists following a New York State Community Commission on Reparations Remedies last Saturday and asked them several questions, including how much the reparations should cost.
One floated the figure of $800,000 apiece.
New Yorkers had differing opinions on what such payments should look like, however. One thought it should operate like a central bank for black people.
“I think it should be, me personally, I think there should be a new Freedmen’s Bureau back, and that is like a central bank almost to Black America and would be distributed to Black communities,” Rex Burns said.
Others said the state government should write a check.
Slavery has not been legal in New York State since 1827, when the last 4,600 slaves were emancipated.
Checks for $800,000 will not satisfy their locust-like greed but only whet their appetite:
“It shouldn’t only be a check, but it should start with a check,” Brooke Lean told Fox News.
In addition to ever more privileged treatment, they will require more checks. If the $trillions looted through the welfare state do not suffice, nothing ever will — not so long as a single penny remains for liberals to confiscate and bestow upon them in reverence for the sacred oppressedness of their distant ancestors.
