No one deserves reparations due their ancestors. No one. We should concentrate on those who are currently suffering directly as a result of US policy.

Veterans! Now there's a group who deserve reparations! And some of their ancestors are still suffering... children who grew up without parents; parents who had their children killed... but most of all, the hungry, homeless veterans on our streets right now. We should be ashamed.


At risk of having the illegal alien controversy rear it's ugly head here, I fail to see what rights a person has who comes to this country illegally. If they are going through the proper channels, that's another story. I can't imagine going to another country without their permission, without following their immigration rules and then demanding that I get some rights. Makes no sense.
