If this were an article about paying every African American $1000 as a reparation for the enslavement of their ancestors people would be falling over each other in an effort to be the next one to echo rube's 'slap in the face' comment.

Well if this matter had anything to do paying reparations that may be relevant, but it doesn't. It's a misleading thread title that has literally nothing to do with the article linked.
I'm not sure what the goal was, but so far all I've seen are comments pointing out that the story is not at all what it has attempted to be painted as and a couple of bigoted comments that would likely be the same regardless of color or creed.
