I am slightly confused about all this talk from white people about black people taking things from them or whatever because of slavery....they talk about this happening like it's a part of their life and it happens on a daily basis. I can't really remember any time that I have seen in person a black guy imposing "white guilt" on a white person. I personally have once in a while just walked up to a white kid and took like a piece of pizza, and yelled "REPARATIONS!" then walked away. It was really just as a joke, but hey I got pizza out of it. Other than that though...I want to hear stories from you white people about this "problem" of we blacks guilting you into giving us stuff.

I agree. Give me my house slave so I can continue being a slacker. Hey, they get a house to live in and food to eat and clean clothes to wear. The least they could do is wait on us hand and foot.

In programming class. "Your family enslaved mine for hundreds of years and you can't give me a flash drive?" Such a retard. Why did we sell his brother? Jazzy Jeff Posted at 10:07 am on Jan. 3, 2009 I have...but it was only on the news. It happens..but not nearly as much as white people complain about.
