Does the U.S. Owe Black American Reparations?
Posted by truthtalklive on 27 February, 2009
Congressman John Conyers of Michigan thinks so. In January of 1989, the Detroit democrat first introduced the bill H.R. 40, the Commission to Study Reparation Proposals for African Americans Act. He has reintroduced H.R. 40 every Congress since 1989.
Today’s guest host is Mason Weaver www.masonweaver.com. Weaver is a Berkeley radical turned Christian conservative and is author of the book “It’s OK to Leave the Plantation”. he’s also the host of the syndicated Mason Weaver Show.

Reparations? not a chance, those who are truely responsible of slavery in American are the stronger tribes along the coast of Africa! Those tribes had weaker tribes as slaves and traded them for goods.
Beyond that, going back to Egypt, the history shows they were black, they held the Jews slaves for what 600 years? Heck slavery was long before the Egyptians !!!!!!!!!!
ALL of these problems are a ploy to weaken American to promote the Bilderberg plan of a ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT. Do the research its falling into profecy of the Old Testament and New Testament. TIME TO BE WITNESS’,
Moral destruction, economic destruction and the destruction of our Christian faith.
What do you think?
Thank you for saying the things you are saying, Mason…I was given a breakthrough of enlightenment about what Jesus had said when he said,”I have not come to condemn, judge, or destroy [sic]…but, to divide [sic]” I finally got the theology internalized on God’s perspective. The only divisions that God would cause by His Great plan, as part of Glorifying Himself by the salvation of Jesus Christ, was to ultimately prove how corrupt we really are, dividing us through the savior, some to rapture, and later some to death in Christ during tribulation, and by the deaths we each experience through “time” until the end of things, judgement, and ultimately conquer us all to His Truth. Lucifer and the other fallen angels and demons are fought in the Heavenlies in the process, too. Evil is then conquered ultimately. The dividing line is ultimately in Christ who is The Way, The Truth, and The Life. return comments would be appreciated. This also means that through God’s Church (originally The Temple) and proscribed Hebrew economics, and by acknowledgement of one another who are believers (now, obviously through Christ’s salvation, and God’s Grace), as all being equal, in all classes, including the United Spirit of the Church…or the one holy catholic church, which includes Hebrew Messianic believers, as well as Gentile Messianic Believers)…sorry to be so run on…that the only divisions that occur comes down to the saved and the unsaved, and then the end of times in the Church Age. Mason you have a new listener to your Godly perspective. I Thank God, for your spirit, and thank you for the work that you’ve come into.
I was very impressed by the loving and peaceful way Mr. Weaver responded to the last caller, who actually suggested that blacks should be grateful for slavery since it brought them to America. As far as reparations: Christians shouldbe about forgiveness and moving society forward toward the Kingdom ideal. Reparations would be more about vengeance than justice, and even if they were somehow warranted, there would be no way to come to a fair figure. From both a practical and spiritual standpoint, reparations make no sense. Does Christ ask US for reparations?
Art, what I think is that you’d enjoy listening to the Michael Savage radio talk show, “The Savage Nation”. Have you ever heard of him/it? He’s more hard-core than Rush Limbaugh.
I liked your post Kash.

I agree completely! Mason displayed true Christian fruit by the way he responded. I was listening last night on my way home and I have to admit that I got a little riled at what that guy was saying. I’m not so sure that I would have been able to respond with such grace. Way to go Mason!!
I love the Savage nation. That guy is crazy.
Every fundamentalist in history has thought that we’re falling into the end times prophecy. They’ve all been wrong.
Yes, he certainly seems so, although I can’t help but wonder if any of his behavior is just for “showmanship”.
They’ve all been wrong….so far…Alex[smile].
Savage is great, yes….but Boortz Rules!
Boortz actually ISN’T a crackpot. Hes a big Ron Paul fan, like myself.
Either that, or we’re both crackpots.
Don’t worry yourself with endtime scenarios, John. The definition of insanity is repeating the same actions expecting different results. Don’t be insane.
Thanks for the advice Alex, but I like, in fact feel that I need, a little insanity[This may have something to do with my fondness of visiting this site] in my life if not my mind. A little insanity helps me to cope with the harsh realities in my life.
Insanity seems to go hand in hand with being a theologian, and in my opinion, with being part of any intelligent species with the gift of having an imagination or any kind of a spirituality. It doesn’t have to be a bad thing necessarily[insanity] as any lover of poetry, art, cooking, music, or sex can attest. What’s important is making sure that ones personal insanity doesn’t get out of hand and have too many negative/destructive/stagnating effects on one’s self or, on others…unless they deserve it[evil smile].
Well, I guess I’ve gone on enough about insanity for now.
Yeah, I know Boortz isn’t a crackpot. He’s almost always right on the money, as far as I’m concerned. I don’t agree with him ALL of the time, but he wouldn’t be Boortz if I did. I like his support of the Fair Tax very much…as well as support for Huck early on. I’m not sure if Boortz is a Christian or not, but as a Christian…I do agree with him 98% of the time. I believe he stands up for what is right….and not afraid to let you know what he thinks….AND he backs it up!
Hello Everyone, great discussion Mason. It is good to know that there is real keen interest in the universal, time transending, indeed Biblical-Hebrew Holy Scriptural Divine law, precept, custom and practice of Reparations. The good is that, whether one believes in the Reparations dogma (with all of it seemingly difficult and contradicting questions) or not, it appears the LORD has indeed brought humanity into this sudden population “bubble”. This huge-massive 6,000,000,000 (six plus billion) human “bubble” with the root ancestries of all surviving Ethno-Racial peoples is rapidly crashing together into a global consumation of the ages. Ironically, our “sudden” generation is possessed with the incredible ability to travel swiftly “to and fro” throughout the earth and unleasing a blinding-shocking explosion of knowledge and technology – “and knowledge shall increase”. Adding to this human phenomenon, like having an “all seeing eye”, we via the United States of America own sudden and surprising advent into world history we are frightenling aware of each other in what we call “real time” capacity. Such a time and experience for human beins is clearly historical and unprecedented. I happen to one of those folks who do believe in Reparations as a Divine Law, jugdment, precept, et al. The events, circumstances and situations of the days, weeks, months and years ahead will certainly reveal the Truth of this most urgent matter and will bring about the great Day when “Everybody’s chickens will come to roost”, in which we will seek Healing from the wounds of our ancestors. I look forward to enlightening, civil and discussion and hopeful, GOD Willing…actions. Here is looking to Healing America and the nations…”and the Sun of Righteousnes will arise with Healing in His Wings”

When the “Blacks” repay the American government for all the rioting, looting, murders, welfare, etc. that they have burdened this society with in the last 50+ years, maybe we “might” think about it. When 13% of the population accounts for 53% of the prison inmates, 49% of all murders, and 42% of all welfare reciepiants. I think they have cost “Us” (White) enough!!! We need to start playing “Cowboys & Niggers”!!!
Dave: That’s a bit racist isn’t it? Are you a Christian?
Dave: It was the ‘whites’ that tried to exterminate the Native American Indians and turn them into White Christians, and tear black children from their mother arms to use them as slaves, and treat black people like they were worth nothing. How would YOU react to such treatment?
Dave – You can make your point without using that term. We’re going to leave it up because our rules are you get 2 warnings and on the 3rd you’re gone. This will have to serve as warning #1. Plus, we’re interested in seeing if others have anything to say about your last sentence there.

Racism is ignorance at best and murderous hatred at worst. It is just a show though. You’re big and bad on the internet where you have no face, coward. Say that to someone’s face, if thats what you really believe, or go back to your white supremacist compound and leave the debate for the mentally stable. You go play your cowboys game, we’ll see how long you last.
That being said, I hope you’re a troll, but you can never tell on this site.
I appoligize for the use of the “N” word. I forgot that only black people are allowed to use it when they describe themselves. Very ignorant of me.
There is a distinction. If the word ends with “ER” its racist, like you. If it ends with “A” its a term of endearment that means brother. Yes, you are very ignorant.
OOPS, you got me again! Maybe I should axe mo questions.
HAHAHAH! Ax. Props. Although still racist.
Dave, welcome to the website.
Dave…[grin]….as a descendant of Florida’s first “cowboys” myself, how is it that you think we of the younger generation should act in regards to this matter? Silly me… I like “black” people, especially the women. I guess I’ve fallen out of touch with my roots, eh?
That is me being rather sarcastic, just in case it wasn’t very clear.
It may be different in the city, but around here Dave, no black man ever uses that word for one another. The word has always had negative meanings[look it up in the dictionary] from the very beginning. As explained to me by some black friends of mine once, black people started throwing the N word around in a casual manner with each other back in the 1970′s to try and “take away it’s power” as a word of negativity. To try and make it their “bEEE-aWch!”, verbally speaking[grin]. And then, over time, it just turned into a form of slang to be casually used by the ignorant and the angry.
Personally I think that they could have tried a different technique, but hey, it’s not up to me.
Dave I won’t argue semantics with you about the origin, use, or abuse of the “N” word because it is pointless. But whether you are a believer or not this is what God’s Word says. The Apostle Paul was preaching to a people who really didn’t care much for the Jewish race, but he includes ALL MEN when he speaks of the Father and His Kingdom. From Acts 17:26-28,30, ” 26 and he made of one every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed seasons, and the bounds of their habitation; 27 that they should seek God, if haply they might feel after him and find him, though he is not far from EACH ONE OF US: 28 for in him WE live, and move, and have OUR being; as certain even of your own poets have said, For WE are also his offspring. 30 The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked; but now he commandeth men that they should ALL everywhere repent:”
Dave, don’t fall into the elementary deception that you are better than someone else because of your race. The Bible declares, “For ALL have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.” 100% of Whites have committed a crime of some sort in this country , and subsequently so has 100% of Blacks and so on…But the law of God is eternally more important than the laws of this land. And that, my friend, we have all broken and deserved to die for it. The Law of Christ is LOVE, and He is OUR (black & white) substitution for death. You should spend less time hating and dividing, and more time thanking God that He had mercy on you.
Tyler… You need to watch the movie REIGULOUS. This movie will make even the most devout “Christian” with half a brain think twice.
Religulous was hilarious. I love Bill Maher.
