The fact that the UK took out a loan to pay slavers that took over a hundred years to repay certainly proved that that people are lying when they say reparations for slavery are impossible. It's about what they *want* to do.

Correct. Outlaw slavery and execute every man who refuses to free his slaves. Seize the property of every man who profited from slavery - use this property to pay for campaign, then redistribute the rest amongst the freed slaves. Also what should have been done in the Civil War.
