San Francisco Quietly Passed the Reparations Bill amid Christmas Celebrations
San Francisco has stepped ahead of other liberal cities in the race for bribing the black population with the nonsensical payments of reparations for slavery. The city is setting up a special fund to pay “eligible” black residents big sums of money as reparations for the slavery and discrimination after passing a new law to legitimize this political extortion scheme.
Daily Mail reported (December 31) that San Francisco’s Mayor Daniel Lurie quietly signed the “incredibly divisive” bill just two days before Christmas to create the fund that would give away eligible black residents of the city reparations with some blacks getting as much as $5 million. The fund was recommended by city’s African American Reparations Advisory Committee (AARAC) in 2023. The paper wrote:
Per the 2023 report, every eligible African-American adult in San Francisco should be handed a $5 million lump sum to ‘compensate the affected population for the decades of harm that they have experienced.’ Approximately 50,000 black people live in San Francisco, and the qualifying requirements remain unclear.
This money will be taken out of the pockets of taxpaying Americans who had nothing to do with slavery and/or discrimination and who go to work daily to make ends meet. And it will be given to people solely on the basis of their skin color and ethnicity who don’t deserve it. But that is how liberals work the redistribution of wealth into their politics campaign strategy. This measure toward reparations comes at a time when San Francisco is bracing for a $1 billion budget deficit in 2026.
Elon Musk reacted to the news of the city’s legislation for a reparations fund by calling it “deeply morally wrong.”
Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton reposted his X post from February last year sharing a video that summarizes the place of reparations in leftist politics in America.
Conservatives also shared memes with questions about reparations for the descendants of those hundreds of thousands of white men who fought in the Civil War to end slavery.
Liberals on the other contrary have hailed San Francisco’s reparations bill and fund, calling it a historic measure. The San Francisco Bay View wrote (December 31):
This development marks a shift “from apology to action,” as Supervisor Shamann Walton, the ordinance’s author, described it—a framework to channel resources toward repairing harms inflicted on the city’s Black community.
On January 1, the Alabama-based Mises Institute published an article “The Illogic of Reparations: Historical Standards, Selective Memory, and the Logic of Victory” explaining why the case of reparations is legally, morally, and logically invalid. Among other points, the article noted that America has done more to raise the living standards of blacks and American blacks enjoy a much better life that the average black population in contemporary African countries.
Liberals, meanwhile, continue to push reparations for blacks in various states. In Maryland last month, the Democrat state lawmakers overrode Governor Wes Moore’s veto of Senate Bill 587, which allows the state to create a reparations commission. The Legislative Black Caucus of Maryland was cited praising the measure as “a historic milestone.”
Reparations for what? They should get off their black ass and work. Unless someone who expierenced the slave days of America can be paraded around. Now the crack sales will increase in SAN fransodomy
It won’t be enough, within a year they will all be protesting for more money because buying all those Cadillacs, hair braiding and 10 jnch fake fingernails will have bankrupted them !!
That’s a good one…… Danke…
“SAN fransodomy” – ROFL
Dempsey just upset none going to the caramel coated 🙂
If anyone deserves reparations, it’s the American Indian. Americans didn’t start slavery anyway. African tribes and Europeans started it and when they brought it to America the democrats ran with it and supported it. There isn’t a sole alive today that suffered from slavery, What crock of crap. It’s obvious the democrats are paying for the black vote. Isn’t that illegal? Just sayin …….. glad I moved out of that city. What a cesspool.
The city should only tax democrats to pay the hoodrats. They are the party of slavery. And lies, if a person reads dunger’s posts.
Amassing: if you’re man enough; prove a lie.
You fucks are fast on the draw, but shooting blanks.
Big words, can’t prove it.
Nor can you prove a false statement with a thousand words, though you frequently try
I have done it many times.
BUSTED.
We need to add the Japanese people who were imprisoned during World War II
Japanese Americans who were incarcerated during World War II did receive formal reparations from the U.S. government.
In 1988, Congress passed the Civil Liberties Act, which acknowledged that the internment was a “grave injustice” caused by “race prejudice, war hysteria, and a failure of political leadership.”
The law provided $20,000 to each surviving internee (or eligible heir); by 1992 the government had paid more than $1.6 billion to over 82,000 people, along with a FORMAL APOLOGY SIGNED BY PRESIDENT RONALD REAGAN.
there ’tis

Just to be clear, I am against reparations like this one. But when will the descendants of those Chinese and Hispanic slaves organize their own protest so they, too, can get millions? Saying only blacks are entitled to San Francisco’s money is racist.
Don’t forget all of the Irish and Scottish slaves sold by England after the English defeated them when they attempted to break free of English rule. The Irish and Scottish slaves were actually the first slaves in the Americas and were sold to Black slave owners who actually were the first slave owners in the Americas!
This is stuff they don’t teach in school because it doesn’t fit the narrative and allows the blacks to be the only victims in history. People don’t understand that every civilization was at one time in their history both the slave and slave owner. Whoever conquered another nation/civilization became the slave owners and the group that was conquered became the slaves. That occurred for thousands of years, and the schools especially don’t teach that it was blacks who captured blacks in Africa and sold them to everyone who wanted slaves. Reparations are just plain wrong as there are no one alive today in the USA that have been slaves and no one in the USA that ever-owned slaves.
They don’t teach that in schools because almost everything in your comment is either misleading or wrong.
Your comment misrepresents Irish and Scottish history, fabricates an origin story about Black slaveowners, cherry‑picks African complicity to obscure European and American responsibility, and then leaps to a blanket “therefore reparations are wrong” conclusion that ignores how modern reparations debates actually work. That said , you have touched on some very rich historical periods. I encourage you to look deeper. Before we use history to support our positions, we should be good students of history.

Just another in a long list of reasons to never go to SanFran and California again. BTW where are they going to get the money from?
