15 billion


I initially laughed at this number too thinking surely anyone that sees this will realize how ridiculous this all is. But then maybe it’s that ingenious tactic of asking for a number so high that Boston just settles and goes “Okay, okay, can’t do $15 billion, how about $50 million?”


And fwiw I think giving any would be absurd.

MICC. You forgot "Congressional." Not sure if you're being ironic or not, but you can trace many, many horrible things about our government back to root of FDR's actions and threats, including the MICC.

Catholic charities are facilitating this "refugee" disaster. Mainly through Catholic Community Services.



Only thing Catholic about them is the name, they have no connections with the church.

Things like this is what indicates just how dumb our society is. Especially some of the white people.


I;m fine with reparations if they're taken directly from these people and given to black people and not printed by Govt to be paid later.

But we know they're hypocrites.

That's funny, the first CCS local webpage I clicked on has the Archdiocese of Seattle linked on their page. On a whim, I looked up the Archdiocese of New Orleans. They have nearly the same content on their page as the one of Seattle/Western Washington, including prominently displayed immigration services. The formatting was nearly the same, and the "services" were in the same order. Including the mention of and link to CCS.

The Diocese/Archdiocese has to give permission for those services to exist, but do not govern their day to day operations.

They’ve gotten so lazy to the point where they just want to not work even more. They have no idea that when that money’s gone they’ll be back to blaming whitey again. And white progressives are such cucks that they’d probably still feel guilty.

No reparations bill outside of stuff like “they can wear their hair this way to work” will ever be passed. The only white people who want this are ones who want to spend other people’s money.

How about churches invest their money into bringing people to Christ and into the needy?

Go on ahead and pay it. I don't care what idiots do with their money. I'll just say, the second that federal or Louisiana state taxes go towards reparations, that will be the last taxes I pat other than sales tax.

The Irish used to be badass. Wonder what happened.


They were... I was in Boston many years ago.. Had to wait outside a friends apartment for him to get off of work. There was a public B.Ball court across the street. There were some baws playing and they started fighting. One guy got punched in the nose and I saw blood splatter. My friend said that he saw fist fights a lot. They need a new Whitey Bulger in town..

I can tell you this is a nonstory in Boston and you’ve officially given it more credence than it deserves. You’re part of the problem.

Meanwhile, BlackRock just bought the house your child will rent until he dies.
