I've always thought blacks have it better in America than anywhere else in the world.

So.... what do you get in return when you give waaayyyyy too much and more than deserved? You get pissn' and moanin' that you didn't give even more and sooner.

(My wise old grandfather used to tell me, "The world doesn't owe you a living, boy. Make something of yourself." That now days appears to be bad advice, especially if you're black.. but then my grandpa was white.)

Twice in my life one of my best friends was African... but not African American.
One was a prince in the royal family of Belize (tho their were several relatives between him and the throne). The other was a Tunisian guy in grad school.

Both of them told me then gave up talking to African Americans. At all. They described them in very uncomplimentary terms. It was mostly about this concept of reparation to current generations for crimes done to past generations.

They both told me that the local blacks encouraged them to move the the USA because sooner or later the government would give them a big enough check in the mail that they would never have to work again.

As my two friends put it, the locals were utterly convinced they were owned something for nothing they were doing, and it was ruining their lives and culture.

..........

At any rate, I wish Obama would come up with some reparation plan or say it's over -- and get this off the plate. Is this going to be something like the Arabs who fight over some insult 100 generations ago?

Disagree.. NO REPARATIONS! We all need to "move on" from the past. More righteously, American blacks should be "thanking their lucky stars" that they are here rather than elsewhere. IOW... if you are black and don't like where you are, either (1) do something about it to make yourself better/happy, or (2) catch the next boat back to Liberia! Either more likely to make you happier than "suffering" in America (with your EBT and other "white guilt" subsidies, of course).

People should not be held accountable or responsible for the actions of the parents, grandparents, great-great-great grandparents, etc.

You see the same thing with people from the islands who are of African decent. They will distance themselves from US blacks and use very unflattering language to do so. I've been surprised at the vitriol they've put out on the subject multiple times.

Reparations are absurd. All that will do is give a check to blacks which they will spend and remain in the same situation they are right now. Then what?
 
the locals were utterly convinced they were owned [sic] something for nothing they were doing, and it was ruining their lives and culture.

Desire for "something for nothing/free" is a human frailty... and achieving it is usually very bad for an individual and its culture.

Consider (1) "spoiled brat" rich kids and trust fund babies... (2) wise parents who decide to NOT to "leave it all to the kids, as that kind of money will ruin their lives".
 
Desire for "something for nothing/free" is a human frailty...
A question in my mind is...
there is without question a teaching and belief in reparations... largely via the Christian churches (of all things).

If this is a given, and it is taken as being owed something...

Would a young person, at a certain stage of life where you don't understand the larger picture -- just because of your age... but you are told you are owed something...

Like the kid in Ferguson. He walked up to a police car, reached in the window and tried to take the officers gun from him.
I wonder if those things go together. And I'm not saying he should have been killed for that. But what he did was beyond reason.

The day it happened the news showed another black kid who described what happened. He said he was standing 5 feet away, saw the whole thing and the kid who died asked for it. Of course, they never ran that interview again.
 
There is a belief among policy makers that the statistical disparities pointed out by Buchanan are the result of a social feedback loop and they'll eventually lessen or disappear if a different imagery is imprinted onto the public mind. The media is used to diffuse racial stereotypes to stop things from getting worse, to reduce the stigma experienced every day by the majority of blacks and hispanics who are working, raising families and trying to live ordinary lives.

It's a worthy goal.

Of course, the uniformity of the media in handling the issue raises questions about whether it's the result of consensus or an example of broader coordinated government control that could extend to other issues where the goals may not be so worthy.

Moreover, when a policy that won't work unless everyone is on board is imposed, open debate has to be stifled. It is a real problem in a free society when journalists can be blackballed or have their motives and integrity impugned for publishing FBI statistics that send the "wrong" message. An authoritarian approach also breeds resentment and you end up with people who would ordinarily be supportive of the policy goals undermining those goals because they bridle at the approach.

The policy goal of diffusing stereotypes is also undermined by group identity politics, which the media actively encourages, probably for other social control purposes. Promoting group identity and polarization isn't going to make a juror more likely to see a black defendant as a individual while deliberating.

Pat Buchanan is a gifted writer, but he's just as guilty of promoting group identity politics as Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. They're all smart enough to see the big picture, but that's not their role.

The news is obviously managed on some level, and there is a policy conflict between the repressive do-gooders trying to steer us toward utopia and the herders trying to manage us so democracy doesn't run away with itself and inconvenience the oligarchy of interests that have the real power.

Yeah, how is the cop to know the "maximum" downside? Maybe the perp is trying to take the cop's gun and run down to the pawn shop to hock it for $50. More likely, he's going to use it to shoot the cop! What's the cop to do? What would you do? Not saying anyone "deserves" to die... but sheesh! (BTW... I happen to believe that "bad guys" get waasaayyyy more "slack" than they deserve. I'm more in favor of the "Chinese way"... commit a crime, you're likely to get a $.05 bullet behind the ear. That way, society doesn't have to deal with you any longer... and not be forced to spend $60K/yr housing you in prision.... for 40 years... to the tune of $2.4 MILLION!)

Being a "bad actor" is a CHOICE. If you get caught, you should be expecting to "pay the price". If you don't like that, DON'T BE A BAD ACTOR!!
