What's to disagree with in this comment or to a laugh about?  its correct.  The world helped France ensure this country stayed poor by demanding it 'compensate' them for loss of its slaves and its slave colony, to compensate slave owners, and would only recognise it as a sovereign nation if it did.  This was with warships standing by...some 150 million francs in *1825*.  In modern day dollars Haiti has paid some 21 billion to France.  And let's not forget the history of the Dominican Republic and its ongoing disgusting treatment of Haiti.  Not sure what the UN is waiting for the sanction this country, who actually got their independence from Haiti not Spain btw.

Maybe if people were less ignorant of the history of slavery, the historical effects of white supremacy, they might be less inclined to laugh. And just so no one misunderstands, I think these people crossing illegally into Canada should be processed immediately and sent back to the U.S. or home.
