It happened 100's of years ago. No one alive today in America was a slave, nor owned one.. And according to my alt-right statistics, only 1.6% of the population even owned slaves anyway, so what's the loving deal? Why keep bringing it up? You don't see the Jews constantly bringing up WW2 or PSG fans after their 6-1 loss to Barca  My country was too busy being killed by the British so we didn't have slaves unfortunately

Because the civil war ended like 150 years ago, not 100's, and it wasn't until 100 years after that war ended that Blacks were granted fully "equal" rights yet they still aren't being treated as equals to this very day. hth

They're angry they didn't get to do it first!! In fact, they still want to do it and are working to make it so now!!! Hope you enjoy hand-mixing vats of coca cola for the rest of your lives, motherfuckers!!! *falls down and convulses*

black americans are the 15th wealthiest nation on the planet. I'm sure that doesn't look as good in comparison because they live in America and have to see mega billionaires, but that pretty frigging good.

Black people in the south were granted the right to vote in 1965. Think about that for a minute or two.

My country was brutalized, conquered and occupied by Americans and Russians for over 50 years. But I don't complain about it. (Except here and now. But nowhere else and no other time!)

It's pretty demeaning when you think about it. Even if you're born free now in America you still have to live with the realization that your ancestors allowed themselves to be corralled like sheep for 100's of years  It would make anyone angry

oh i guess in an argument or something people will bring up the point of slavery but i don't think they legitimately think they'll ever get reparations or whatever, it's pretty much the only thing a black person has on a white guy when they get into a heated racial argument. im glad to not be involved on either side but i generally agree with the kill whitey sentiment.
