As another politician bends the knee to and/or kisses the ring of POTUS, DC Mayor Muriel Bowser has fallen into line.

 

Mayor Bowser will be having removed the Black Lives Matter mural from the street in Washington DC.

 

The mural is one block away from the White House.  It was painted there in June 2020 in the wake of George Floyd's murder.

 

The mural area will be renamed Liberty Plaza. Hopefully Mayor Bowser won't sell-out the whole city.

Mayor Bowser is a cutie pie. The jury is still out on her preference. We think she only likes men as colleagues. Zero interest cavorting with a man otherwise.

Nah, the Mayor is too young for my tastes.

 

The way she rolls has led folks to speculate that she might be a closet member of the alphabet soup community.

Too young?
Man, she's only a few years younger than YOU, lol.

Once a woman reaches past 50....she's not "too young" for ANYBODY, lol.

I wondered that too, but then I looked at her bio..........
52 years old and never been married or engaged or even known to have ever been in a relationship.
......as good as she looks, you KNOW men have been trying to get at that left and right all of her life, so this is a clear sign that something is going on.

But I saw a quote from her saying that she was a proud STRAIGHT "ally" of the LGBT community.
So she says she's straight, and I have no reason to doubt it.
However she may be a-sexual and just doesn't have a desire for sex.

But that body is voluptuous....straight up.

Whoa, just how old are you LOL!  Well at the risk of objectifying our dear sister, she is right in the sweet spot age wise for me, though a big heavy for my taste.  She does have a lovely smile . 

 

Based upon this brief conversation there is truly someone for everyone

 

While I was in Tulsa, the got rid of their Black Lives street mural too, a few years ago.  It looked very much like the one in DC.  I thought it was odd Tulsa got rid of theirs, considering it was literarily on Black Wall Street.

 

I wonder if the folks in DC and Tulsa would have gotten rid of the street sign it said, "White Lives Matter"?

[Pioneer1]

Well, with a name like "Bowser"....she really didn't have much of a choice BUT to be attractive, lol.

If she had been anything below beautiful...her name would certainly have been used against her at every opportunity.

That is why she is Honorable major of Washington DC as opposed to running behind kids and fetching beers for her boo.

 

Still just cause you ain't read about it on some Wikipedia page does not mean she ain't gettin' hers.  She may discreet.

The only time Black Lives Matter to the General Population was during slavery

Mayor Bowser adopted an infant child several years ago.  She might fetching beers for her *boo* when they're chilling at the crib.

If you killed d a slave you end up having to pay. Whereas today there is no compensation.

The following is an excerpt from Homicide Justified: The Legality Of Killing Slaves In The United

States And The Atlantic World

 

 After 1750, the Barbadian slave code made its way to the British

colonial mainland. Clause twenty of the Barbadian law gave masters the right to

kill a slave who had run away or misbehaved. Killing a slave for any other

reason could be punished with a fine. If a third party murdered a slave, he had to

pay double to slave’s value, but if the killing was accidental, the master

determined the compensation. Barbadian slaves did not possess the right of

self-defense, except to defend their masters. Scholars commonly presume the

mainland British colonies adopted the Barbadian slave code wholesale, but Fede

found that only South Carolina adopted the homicide part of the code. The other

colonies incorporated slave killings into the common law of homicide. In theory,

killing a slave was equal to killing a free person and would be punished as such.

That means a master would be executed for the intentional killing of his slave. In

practice, Fede found that the exceptions swallowed the rule. Murders of slaves

that occurred in the course of discipline, insurrection, and self-defense were

readily accepted and master acquitted for the killings. Few white men were

executed for the killing of a slave in the North American British Empire.

After independence, states attempted slave law reform, including the

homicide laws. The tendency was to equate the murder of a slave with the

murder of a free white man, but the practice allowed for so many exceptions that

only a few masters were executed for killing their own slaves. Almost all of

these men were outcasts in their own communities. Virginia, South Carolina, and

Texas each executed one master. Tennessee executed two men who were not

masters. As the nation expanded westward, the slave homicide laws of the new

states were like those of the old. American slave law proclaimed in the books

that slaves were entitled to the same protections as whites, but in practice the law

operated to serve the master’s economic interests.

April 16, 1862, President Lincoln signed the District of Columbia Compensated Emancipation Act. This law prohibited slavery in the District, forcing its 900-odd slaveholders to free their slaves, with the federal government paying owners an average of about $300 (equivalent to $9,000 in 2024) for each

 

Although there have been few reparations to the nations involved, one controversial development dates back to the 1800s. In 1833, the British government agreed to pay £20m to slave owners in exchange for the freeing of their slaves — which would equate to billions in the modern day

 

France went further by penalizing Haiti for the revolution that abolished slavery in its former colony St. Domingue. It levied a huge sum on the island, which crippled it in decades of debt. Former slaves were forced to pay indemnities to former slaveowners in exchange for official recognition as the first black independent nation-state in the Western Hemisphere.

 

 

Slaves were so valuable their owners were compensated by the Government.

Yet, when FBA bring up reparations for slavery folks claim they don't know where to start when it comes to doing the math.

 

We could just as easily start with a number like $15 trillion dollars and work from there.
