You mean you want them to spend it improving the lifestyle of blacks. Well, they've been doing that for years. The long-term result has been the collapse of the black family and soaring rates of crime, illegitimacy, drug use, abortion, etc.




Again, ignorant of history or being deliberately dishonest.




The fact that the US government was, until recently, throughout much of its history detaining foreign combatants captured on foreign soil without entitling them to a right they do not, as non-citizen foreign combatants, enjoy, provides absolutely zero basis for asserting that this can or has been extended to everyone.
