In #452 freebeard confirmed that my interpretation of his position ("the only way I'd ever be for reparations for chattel slavery is if the recipients willingly leave the US.") is correct.
It seems that both of you have feelings and thoughts of disgust about the issue.
Essentially everything was taken from chattel slaves and they worked to create wealth for the slaveowners. This also created much wealth for the US. His position seems to be a haughty: Hmphh, well then, if the descendants of chattel slaves want to be made partially whole, they must voluntarily leave the US.
It seems that freebeard's (and quite probably redpoint5's) position is the worst kind of arrogance, entitlement, supremacy, and probably more.
