Not a stunt
Inner City Minister Sues Democratic Party For Reparations
[ Seattle , January 3, 2005 ] On December 10th 2004 , inner-city minister, Rev Wayne Perryman, – filed a class action Reparation lawsuit (in the United States District Court in Seattle Case No. CV04-2442), alleging “that because of their racist past practices the Democratic Party should be required to pay African Americans Reparations.†Perryman said “he based his case on the research that he gathered during the past five years while writing the three editions of his latest book: Unfounded Loyalty, An In-depth Look Into The Love Affair Between Blacks & Democrats
In his 100-page brief, Perryman concludes that the past racist policies and practices that were initiated against African Americans by the Democratic Party – were no different than the policies and practices that were initiated by the Nazi Party against the Jews. In both situations millions of lives were destroyed (physically, mentally and economically).
I was dumbfounded to read this, and I have no doubt it’s true–it makes perfect sense:
*During the past 21 decades the Democrats successfully disguised and concealed their horrific acts against the African Americans by operating and committing these acts under the following aliases: “the Confederacy,†“Jim Crow,†“Black Codes,†the “Dixiecrats†and the “Ku Klux Klan.†Congressional records, historical documents, and the letters and testimonies from several brave black citizens revealed that these groups weren’t separate independent organizations, but were actual auxiliaries, divisions and/or the legislative efforts of the Democratic Party. The debates on the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871 further revealed that these auxiliaries were committed to use every means possible to carry out the Democrat’s racist agenda of “White Supremacy,†including: lynchings, murders, intimidation, mutilations, decapitations and racially bias legislation and adjudication.
He goes on:
Perryman said, “To conceal the truth of their racist past (and as part of their effort to deceive the public), the Democratic Party made a conscience decision not to mention or disclose their true and complete history. (See exhibit 1). On their official website they failed to disclose that as a Party:
· Democrats opposed the Abolitionist
· Democrats supported slavery and fought and gave their lives to expand it
· Democrats supported and passed the Fugitive Slave Laws of 1793 & 1854
· Democrats supported and passed the Missouri Compromise to protect slavery
· Democrats supported and passed the Kansas Nebraska Act to expand slavery
· Democrats supported and backed the Dred Scott Decision
· Democrats supported and passed Jim Crow Laws
· Democrats supported and passed Black Codes
· Democrats opposed educating blacks and murdered our teachers
· Democrats opposed the Reconstruction Act of 1867
· Democrats opposed the Freedman’s Bureau as it pertained to blacks
· Democrats opposed the Emancipation Proclamation
· Democrats opposed the 13th , 14th, and 15th Amendments to end slavery, make black citizens and give blacks the right to vote
· Democrats opposed the Civil Rights Act of 1866
· Democrats opposed the Civil Right Act of 1875 and had it overturned by U.S. Supreme Court
· Various Democrats opposed the 1957 Civil Rights Acts
· Various Democrats argued against the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Acts
· Various Democrats argued against the passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Acts
· Various Democrats voted against the 1972 Equal Employment Opportunity Act
· Democrats supported and backed Judge John Ferguson in the case of Plessy v Ferguson
· Democrats supported the School Board of Topeka Kansas in the case of Brown v The Board of Education of Topeka Kansas .
· Southern Democrats opposed desegregation and integration
· Democrats started and supported several terrorist organizations including the Ku Klux Klan, an organization dedicated to use any means possible to terrorize African Americans and those who supported African Americans.â€
Congressional records reveal that there wouldn’t be a question of Reparations today had Democratic President Andrew Johnson signed Senate Bill 60 (in 1866) which would have given each African American family 40 acres and a mule. Instead, Johnson vetoed the Bill and continued to block other key pieces of legislation that were designed to bring about equality for African Americans.
Read the rest. Yep, there’s more!
Makes Robert KKK Byrd’s position on Condi’s confirmation a lot more clear. As far as I’m concerned he might be an “official” EX-Klansman, but he still holds those beliefs. How many Klansman are in the Republican party, hmmmm?
Oh **** – when are these dumbass Blacks going to wake up and realize that, every damn one of them alive today, were NOT alive during that era!
It’s rather quite simple – We don’t OWE any of you a damn thing; so get over it!
Actually I got a different message from that post, Yat…I wasn’t concentrating on the reparations part.
Cao – being from the deep South, I’ve heard this **** for many years and it irritates me just as much as seeing/hearing the words … John “HANOI FONDA” Skerry or Cindy Sheehan.
You ignored the democrats = racists part. That was the part that I thought was important, I wasn’t concentrating on the reparations lawsuit–that’s a peripheral aside.
I’ve been particularly disturbed when people accuse me of “racism” when there’s nothing in my psychology or my life that indicates that I make any decisions based on the color of anyone’s skin. That’s what I felt was important–not the reparations part.
I personally don’t agree with awarding anyone reparations or medals or monetary benefits based on what happened hundreds of years ago–the point was democrats=nazis. How many sentences were devoted to the ‘reparations’ part? Perhaps I should change the title of the post.
Here’s what really gets my dander up; once you read it, you’ll quickly see that this is nothing more than plain EXTORTION:
c. We ask that the Defendant pay each African American citizen ages 26- 35 that is currently alive as of the date of this lawsuit, a total sum of $25,000 in reparations, each adult ages 36-45, $45,000 in reparations, each adult ages 46-55, $50,000 in reparations each and each citizen ages 56 and older $100,000 in reparations.
4. Awarding Plaintiff fees and expenses incurred in this action, including reasonable allowance of fees for attorneys to administer the Class Action claim and appropriate consultant fees.
5. Granting extraordinary equitable and/or injunctive relief as permitted by law, equity and federal and state statutory provisions sued on hereunder, including attaching, impounding, imposing a constructive trust upon or otherwise restricting the proceeds of the Defendant’s investments, checking, savings or other assets so as to assure that Plaintiff has an effective remedy.
6. Ordering a formal apology to African Americans for the wrong that was committed during the duration of the Defendants’ tenure as an organization or political party.
I hope that every Judge that has this ignorant case on their Docket, throws it out of Court — I sure as hell would!
That wasn’t in the post, yat….but you can take from it whatever you wish. There are way too many lawsuits for too many stupid things, but the gist of the post–the emphasis I placed on the post wasn’t on the lawsuit.
I didn’t ignore that part Cao — ya think now, the Blacks will start swinging over to the Republican party?
Cao – it wasn’t in the original post; but, it did come from the link that was in the post.
“I personally don’t agree with awarding anyone reparations or medals or monetary benefits based on what happened hundreds of years ago–the point was democrats=nazis.”
You and I definitely agree on that!
