I'm sorry that the democrat party went all in for slavery. I am not sorry that the republican party took the country away from that.

I'm sorry that the democrat party has treated the black community as lower class humans. I am not sorry that the republican party tries to treat them as equal humans.

I'm sorry that the democrat party is destroying the black community wherever they have political leadership. I'm also sorry that under a black democrat party president that race relations are the worst they have ever been.

They cannot even see that part.  :mental:

White men shed their blood that slaves might be free.
That is apology enough.

If the Confederate flag is racist what about the democrat party?

The democrat party was all about slavery and they should be disbanded or at the very least be forced to change their name. It offends me and makes me hurt in my heart knowing that the racist negro hating democrat party is still called the democrat party.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Let me ask you this, Ed Suspicious.

Do you still own slaves today?
Tax paying white people working....close enough.

They can change their name to the Communist Party. Oh wait.. that is taken already. Well then the two ought to just merge since both platforms are so similar.

I am sorry that the slavers were mostly black -- the ones in Africa all were.

As someone with a B.A. in History who specialized in American history, I am well aware of the horrors associated with the slave trade.
My apology, like most of yours, will not mean much, as I have never owned a slave, nor (To the best of my knowledge) am I descended from anyone who owned slaves.
I also don't believe I should wallow in self- imposed guilt over something that happened centuries ago in which the only common factor between myself and the perpetrators is skin color.
However, I will say that I am very sorry that slavery happened, in much the same way that I am very sorry that other historical atrocities happened, such as the Holocaust and the campaigns of genocide against Native- Americans.

You'd think with all these primitives descended from slave owners apologizing, there'd be a black descended from slaves to accept the apology and move on.  Don't think I've ever seen that though.

I know how to solve this:


I, as the self-appointed representative of all things black, african american, negro, etc hereby declare that all you white devils are now pardoned from any white guilt that you may harbor due to your honky ancestors being slave masters.   I will be happy to write out a signed legal document as proof for whenever somebody tries to make you feel bad about it. 


There, I've done my public service for the day.

Again, a considered no on apologizing for slavery.
But I will apologize for global warming.
I will do that when I have made a fortune in anti green industries, and then use that fortune to bilk gullible libs out of their hard earned dole...

Quote


Tom Steyer’s concern for the environment and almost religious devotion to promoting green energy appear to be targeting another kind of green.

Steyer, criticized for the hypocrisy of having built some of his fortune on coal, is now connected to green energy companies that might benefit from his climate change activism.

Recently published tax documents for solar firm Kilowatt Financial, LLC, listed Steyer as a “manager” and a “managing member,” according the Washington Free Beacon.
As manager, Steyer is “chosen by the members to manage the LLC and is similar to a director of a corporation.”

Kilowatt Financial offers solar energy management options for homeowners.
According to its website, the company handles installation, financing, maintenance, and tax credit paperwork for buying solar electricity, and leasing or owning a solar power system.

The company, founded in 2011, could benefit from the “green energy” lobbying Steyer does.
That’s substantial.
 In the 2014 election cycle alone, Steyer spent $74 million through his NextGen climate PAC to promote a climate alarmist agenda, attack fossil fuels, and back candidates who supported alternative energy (like solar).

In the most recent reporting period, official documents indicated Steyer was the one keeping NextGen Climate afloat.
The Washington Times reported, “the latest Federal Elections Commission report shows that contributors other than Mr. Steyer invested just $2,457 in the super PAC.”
Steyer himself put $5 million into the PAC during that same time.

Steyer’s fervent dedication to alternative energy, therefore, appears fundamentally financial.
He floods his own PAC with his personal money to push for policies that benefit the green energy company he helps manage.

Alternative Energy wasn’t always Steyer’s focus.
He only began attacking coal power in 2011 - the same year that Kilowatt was founded.

Meanwhile in Australia, the hedge fund that Steyer started and ran until at least 2013, Farallon Capital Management, was busy finalizing a transaction to create what is on track to become one of Australia’s largest coal mining operations.
This deal increased coal production in Australia by a staggering 70 million tons.

Steyer divested from Farallon in 2014 after saying that he could not reconcile it with his current personal beliefs about climate change.
Also, conveniently after he had made a fortune.

After he divested, the media praised Steyer for his conversion from profit-seeking capitalist to environmental hero.
Clearly they ignored the profits he would get from pushing green energy.
