New US Senator once initiated black “takeovers” of white-owned restaurants
Interim senator for Kerry a rabid racist -
Recently appointed on an interim basis to fill Sen. John Kerry’s seat, William “Mo” Cowan’s race-obsessed past has come to light despite the mainstream media’s best efforts.
Along with his wife and other cohorts, Cowan used to help plan and execute so-called “friendly takeovers” of majority-white establishments.
In a 2003 interview, the lawyer said, “We get used to the fact that we’ll be the only black people in the restaurant” and “want to come to something like this to see other people who look like us. Everybody has their comfort zone.”
He also noted the apparent level of discomfort among white patrons when he and other black individuals took over a restaurant.
“It’s always interesting to me to observe even the most positive, forward-thinking progressive member of the majority culture when they are surrounded by minorities,” he said.
Bombarding an establishment deemed to be too white is justified, according to Cowan’s logic, because the majority has always benefitted from some inherent privilege based solely on their skin color.
“White people in the U.S. have had the comfort zone all their lives,” he said, lumping all people who fit his narrowminded ideology into one group as leftists are wont to do.

Might as well finish the job! I heard there are a few businesses still in operation. Why not turn them over to minorities that don’t want to work?
What could possibly go wrong ?

I’m trying to picture just how far I would get in a political career if I talked about wanting to eat in restaurants surrounded only by white faces.
Yeah, wouldn’t even get off the ground, now would I?
I’m sick and tired of the One Way Street known as Racism. Until we acknowledge that blacks, often many of them in public life, are the biggest racist bastards on the planet, I do not want to hear another word about racism.

Pardon me, Mo. Ever heard of “indentured servants”? How about the whites who were hanged by the KKK because they worked for equality for blacks?
What a jacka$$.

Hands down-bar anyone else-I’m 100% with Dianny-every black friend? I’ve ever had and I have many, when they let their guard down are the most racist group of people I’ve ever been around.
It’s second nature for them to feel they’re entitled to special considerations, SNAP, Sec 8, fucking you name it, their hands are out and they’re JUS-tified.
Are there exceptions? Of Course and I’ll venture to say that 99.9999% of those exceptions are conservatives.
These scum race pimps have sowed this wind and they’re going to reap the whirlwind.

This is the legacy of James Cone — black liberation theology and institutional racism. Like AGW, this psycho-theory must be challenged and thrown on the trash heap of failed theories.
