Shouldn't we give reparations to Native Americans?

Yep, it wasn't the Native Americnas first run in with Europeans, they also had to deal with the Vikings trying to convert them to Christianity before Colombus.

Europeans pushed Native Americans onto reservations (because they took 95% of their land). So I ask you...what reparations? You mean the money used to build large scale casinos? Well in truth they deserve every bit of that and more for all that was taken from them.

African Americans were promised forty acres and a mule and that was taken from them by the democrats took that from them after Abraham Lincoln gave it to them (kind of funny how that works because today a republican would never do that lulz).

The republican party and democratic party switched principles towards the 1930s after the great depression. The democrats were more alike to what is the republican party back then. They were the conservative party and they had a strong concentration on the south.

I am not a fan of either, just wanted to throw in some history. (lol) I agree that's pretty funny.

Yeah, the way Lincoln saw it is that if African Americans could be profitable for slave owners as slaves they probably knew how to run to the farming in the south on their own and be quite profitable at it after the civil war. After Lincoln was assassinated, Andrew Johnson said? "Forty acres and a mule? Fuck them!" What a dick. Its truly amazing how Republicans and democrats basically went through role reversals. Thomas Jefferson was a Democratic-Republican. Makes you think about how the parties have evolved and changed. History...lol.
