This one was just too nutty to pass up! In my younger years I used to fall for the lure of the reparations cry babies. I used to figure, yea my ancestors were slaves, somebody give up some money. Being older I must say I’ve gotten over that. After learning how Blacks in some areas were given land after slavery. How America has given any disadvantaged people money already via program after failed program. I realized this free money scam only hurts more than it helps whenever it is tried. As Frederick Douglass said, all the freebies hurt more than they help!

After I learned more of American history. The history that some Blacks consider to be “White”, I realized that America has given way too much as Frederick Douglass pointed out. That everyone must do for themselves in order to be Americans or simply fall as he mentioned.

Well Barbara Ratliff and others that I call Blackavists don’t see it that way. They want money because some of their ancestors were slaves and to that end they want Blacks to boycott major stores this Christmas eve. Yea right, like Black people really care about this nut and her boycott .

Well Ms. Ratliff you will continue to be ignored. It’s time you and others learn from someone like Frederick Douglass, who really was a slave.

These Blackavists claim they are not calling for a “Christmas buying boycott”, but you can tell that they obviously are given their selected boycott dates.

Nobody really was thinking about slave reparations until the Nation of Is-slime (Islam) aka NOI decided to make it an issue. What better way to gain more support from Blacks than to tell them you want to give them other people’s money? To a degree the game works. But even people who want reparations will not participate in this boycott. Because they know in reality that it will never happen. Some folks keep playing along with this reparations game just in case somebody will give them something. And those who claim they don’t want the money for themselves want to have a hand in how the money is spent. Which would be an open door for them to abuse it themselves.

Some companies that may have had some involvement with slavery in their past at times decide to give out some money, to keep the pressure off their backs. To that I say that is their choice.

I say to all who continue with the reparations pipe dream, listen to Frederick Douglass, stop begging for crumbs. Work for yourself and earn your own.
