I graduated from law school in 2001. In 2000, one of my criminal law professors invited a guest speaker to address our class. His name was Charles Ogletree. Look him up - he is one of the most vocal proponents of the idea that white folks need to give cash money to the "survivors" of the slave trade. Bear in mind, this had NOTHING to do with crim law, it was simply an opportunity for our liberal law professor to foster his agenda. He was a former public defender that saw racial conspiracy behind every black criminal convicted of a crime. I listened to Ogletree lay out his rationale for why blacks deserve money, despite the fact none of them had been slaves, that affirmative action and quotas had enabled them to get education slots and jobs they otherwise were unqualified for, had those decisions been based upon merit or achievement. Remember, I wasn't some 24-year old that lived to please college professors. At that time, I was 41, had spent 10 years flying C-130's and C-141's, and was long past the stage of deferring to credentials. I asked Professor Ogletree one question: "If society, meaning white people, did as you requested and gave every black person in America $25,000, would you agree that racism remediation in all forms should end?" His response was both predictable and telling - "No. The stain of racism will never be eradicated form America." I was tempted to respond, but didn't - no point. Reparations is simply the latest unfulfilled money grab by those that make a living off the racism scheme (cue Sharpton, Jackson, et al). theRandyGuynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3360697570873499457.post-22629854615253332622016-05-09T09:16:56.640-07:002016-05-09T09:16:56.640-07:00According to this guy, excuses top hard work, huh?...According to this guy, excuses top hard work, huh? Got news for him. It will be a cold day in Hell before I part with one more penny to support the lazy Sons a Bitches. Here in Sonoma County, we have more job openings than we know what to do with. Unfortunately, all these people want Rocket Scientists pay on their 2nd grade education. Uh, Mac. Not happening. Go hit up all these Professional Sports Athletes for the money. They have plenty. Don't see them offering to help out. Maybe you should guilt them instead.Frank R.
