You expect them to be integrated into the societies in which they live? WOW easier said than done...what a joke.

Why not? The average African (immigrant) is more integrated into American society than the average African-American (from my personal experience). Why is that?

I'll give you the part about China. Most Berkelites would have a heart attack if they saw how capitalist China is compared to their own views.

The Constitution gave Americans the civil rights they have today. And it wasn't written by Michael Moore.

Did you know the Constitution or the BILL OF RIGHTS YOU MEAN did not mention "colored people" or women at all?

How do you think non-whites and women got their rights? Not by the Bill of Rights.

It didn't mention whites or males either.

As racist as diversity and acceptance. Are you stupid???? You mention Cuba and China as repressive governments to me, so I responded that they were revisionist regimes for you. Did they teach you to cry racism for no reason at Berkeley? I think they did.

Was this during the War of 1812. If so, then the US should sue for the burning of the White House. :rolleyes:

That's a cool historical fact that every Canadian knows but for some reason, the Brits don't. It's a shame they were told not to keep control of any conquered land and just left after burning it down.

OP

we could offer any "black" person a plane ticket and a few grand to go back to west africa. after all the nasty brits shouldnt have "stolen" their ancestors in the first place. therefore they shouldnt be here now.

any guesses for how many of these demoralised ancestors of slaves would take up the offer?

Is that a rhetorical question? I think we all know the answer to that. :smile:

Your personal experience..because that tells all.

As for the bit about China...Take it from someone who has Oriental blood in them and whose father's wife is actually from mainland China, it is not capitalist.

You have no idea what you are talking about. They shoot (thought) criminals dead on the street without trials let alone religion is technically banned. Please don't spout apocryphal statements.

I think Malcolm X and the Nation of Islam proposed that, and needless to say, not many listened to them (they didn't listen to themselves either).

Instead of talking about slaves from the past and paying them back, why didn't this expert turn his attention to slaves that still exist in African governments and ask them to pay damages? Why he wouldn't is, because he knows very well what those governments would tell him: to ****ing piss off.

The thing is that with the state of mind of the British population and its attitude to its past, people get away with saying as much negative things they want. Noone will ever tell them that they're talking ****.

What does that have to do with capitalism or communism? Was Pinochet communist since he had dissidents shot?

Isn't that what the creation of Liberia was for? That didn't end too well...
