I LOVE that last pic. Makes me giggle every time. Besides, I haven't seen the cousins in too long.......................
It's good to see Jim Bob and Gym Bob looking so swell.
As for reparations. I say nuts to that idea. The whole idea is criminally mentally retarded.
The perps who did the crime are long ago dead. Besides that, back then, everybody that could afford it had a slave or three.
Kit Carson had at least one. Narbona and other Navajos had some. Rico New Mexicans had theirs. Same with the Texans and the Mexicans.
Hellsfire, slave raiding was a common practice ON ALL SIDES during the mid 1800's in New Mexico Territory.
Who you gonna pay? and WHY?
It's an eternally stupid idea. A perfect example of HOW the dems lose elections.
Pushing stupidity such as this.
You want to pay reparations for something?
How about starting with the descendants of those OUR Gov't actually implemented extermination policies upon?
There's more than a few tribes that fall into that category!
Or, better yet, how about those tribes that STILL HAVE valid treaty's guaranteeing them land we have subsequently stolen (back!)?
(Talk about "Indian Giving")
Let's start by giving the Chiracahua Apache back their reservation beginning with 99% of the Coronado National Forest.
Then we'll start confiscating private property to return to the tribe.
On sentiment, I'd love to. Common sense tells me otherwise.
The whole concept would NEVER fly.
On it's face, it's just as stupid as the reparations idea.
It won't FLY!
A Divisive waste of time and a way to lose elections by looking needlessly communistic/socialistic/big government driven.
A HUGE give to the criminal POTUS!
