NAACP Launches Race-Based Shakedown
Some advice to American companies: Hold tight to your wallets. As reported in the Washington Times, the racial grievance industry is gearing up for an orgy of greed.
The NAACP recently unveiled a new strategy for collecting revenue, which will center on targeting private companies that they accuse of having "historical ties to slavery." Those who refuse to pay out or otherwise fail to do as they are told will face boycotts.
Why this does not meet the legal definition of extortion is something a lawyer would have to explain.
Rather than acknowledge the effects of the irresponsible lifestyle and decayed family structure prevalent in inner cities, Dennis C. Hayes, interim Don, I mean, President and Chief Executive Officer of the NAACP, chooses to blame current "poverty, disparities in health care and incarcerations" on slavery — which, as some readers may be aware, was ended a century and a half ago at the cost of hundreds of thousands of white American lives.
The master plan will include leaning on cities to enact laws requiring businesses to complete a "slavery study" in order to get city contracts. The point of such laws is unclear, unless it is simply to prove that these goons can make businesses jump through whatever hoops they choose. Laws like this are already on the books in Chicago and Philadelphia. A law forcing all Caucasian executives to come to work dressed in tutus probably isn't far behind.
"We need legislation with teeth," said Adjoa Aiyetoro, a thug who is employed as a professor at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock's school of law.
The campaign has found success against banks, which any crook can tell you is a good place to look for other people's money. J.P. Morgan Chase and Wachovia have already knuckled under and agreed to pay out.
As further proof that what goes around comes around, the Democratic Party — which has a habit of pandering to race-baiting criminal lowlife like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton — is being hit with two reparations lawsuits by Seattle minister Wayne Perryman.
"One of the problems in courts is that ... you have to show ... the government official who participated in it," said Perryman. "With the federal government the real problem is that it has never had a totally pro-slavery position, the Democrats did and supported it, while the abolitionists and Republicans did not."

This scam should be shut down by the corporations they are trying to rob. If enough companies would just refuse to be BLACKmailed, it would end. The leaders(?) of this so-called movement would find it difficult to call for an effective boycott against every business in the United States.

Wait - think about it. This has real possibilities. The racial shakedown artists, on studying the historical record, would have to go after the Democratic Party, the party of slavery at the time of the Civil War, and at the same time recognize the Republican Party as the party founded to abolish slavery.
If nothing else, it might jumpstart the thought process in some quarters that could use it. It may even cause those quarters to examine the central role of Africans themselves in the slave trade...
