IN LIEU of Reparations

As a Caucasian male, I did not participate in slavery and I do not know if any of my relatives did, but if they were involved, it is not my frigging responsibility, it is theirs and why should I feel guilty because of something they did?  Logically, makes no sense.

If my father was a seriel killer, should I be held accountable for his crimes?  NO...  I should not!!!

However, I sympathize and empathize with the descendants of slaves and I would like to propose that our US Government, give these descendants of slaves, LAND...  just like we gave the Native Americans for the damage we did to their relatives.  I would also suggest that we allow these descendants to build, own, and operate casinos, just like the Native Americans, and use the profits as reparations to be distributed as these descendants decree...

The other opportunity that I would like to suggest is to let these slavery descendants SELL ILLEGAL DRUGS LEGALLY and use those profits to be distributed on the basis of equity.  However, I would stipulate that sense these drugs are illegal at the present time, that the US Government be allowed to regulate and oversee their manufacture to minimize the harm to other Americans.

These are unusual times and as such, they require unusual solutions...
