The Liberal Mindset - why?

and further dividing the nation by race, creed...... horrible move.

My great grandparents, like millions of others, arrived at Ellis Island after the Civil War.  All of their descendants fall into the same class as your family.

Additionally, what about those people (both black & white) who gave their lives to fight in the Civil War?  Are they entitled to some type of reparation?

I have never understood why reparations needs to be a government pushed issue as opposed to a private legal manner.  If your ancestors were slaves of the Johnson Family from Atlanta, Georgia, and the current Johnson family members continue to profit from or have holdings that were acquired because of slavery, then you should sue them.  Take 'em to court, thats the American way.

Irony of ironies. Today's Left, the offspring of the Revolutionaries of 1968, has become The Man.

What about reparations to the Japanese Americans who were put into detention camps and had their personal property confiscated? Where would you stop?  

In addition to the problem of paying reparations to descendants generations removed from the victims, a case could be made that those individuals in the United States right now have a better life & more opportunity than they would had their ancestors been allowed to stay in Africa.

Just like when liberal politicians rattle their sabres against guns, moves like this will only spur greater sales and customer loyalty to Chick-fil-A.

It's silliness and hypocrisy to the extreme. Many people remember the movement to stop playing "Baby, It's Cold Outside" around Christmas because it "promoted date rape", when in fact it was written by a man to his wife to honor the innocent flirting they did between themselves. They also remember the uproar to paint over a mural at an L.A. middle school because the art deco sunburst background reminded neighborhood Koreans of the Japanese rising sun, and it was therefore deemed and in need of removal.

Not so many people remember the announcement several months ago by San Diego University that they would no longer use the terms Latino, Latina, Chicano or Chicana in any of their literature or language because they were gender-specific and therefore sexist and offensive. Instead they would use LatinX and ChicanX as gender-neutral terms. So how long will it be before we determine that "men" and "women" are gender specific and therefore sexist and offensive, and we will all just be called X-Men?

And then there was the movement by Stanford University students and faculty a couple months ago to eliminate all images and references to Fr. Junipero Serra because of his mistreatment of American Indians. Yet those same students and faculty still proudly attend a school named after Leland Stanford, who was not only one of the great robber barons in American history, but also one of the most openly and virulently anti-Asian racists of all time. He brought thousands of Chinese coolies to America to build his railroads, and then unceremoniously threw them to the curb when he was done with them. And yet there's no outcry by Stanford students or faculty about his deeds or his character.

This society is going down the rabbit hole of insanity, and it's even money if it will ever come back out again.
