"These people marched and were hit in the face with rocks to get an education, and now we've got these knuckleheads walking around," he declared. "The lower economic people are not holding up their end in this deal. These people are not parenting. They are buying things for kids - $500 sneakers for what? And won't spend $200 for 'Hooked on Phonics.'

"They're standing on the corner and they can't speak English. I can't even talk the way these people talk: 'Why you ain't,' 'Where you is' ... And I blamed the kid until I heard the mother talk. And then I heard the father talk. ... Everybody knows it's important to speak English except these knuckleheads. ... You can't be a doctor with that kind of crap coming out of your mouth!"

"These are not political criminals. These are people going around stealing Coca-Cola. People getting shot in the back of the head over a piece of pound cake and then we run out and we are outraged, saying, 'The cops shouldn't have shot him.' What the hell was he doing with the pound cake in his hand?"

I think only Cosby and Chris Rock could say these things without being lynched by the media.

Bill Cosby Stands Behind Critical Comments

"I am talking about these people who cry when their son is standing there in an orange suit. Where were you when he was 2? Where were you when he was 12? Where were you when he was 18 and how come you didn't know that he had a pistol? And where is the father? . . .

"The church is only open on Sunday and you can't keep asking Jesus to do things for you. You can't keep saying that God will find a way. God is tired of you," Cosby declared to loud applause.

"I wasn't there when God was saying it, I am making this up, but it sounds like what God would say. In all of this work we can not blame white people. White people don't live over there; they close up the shop early. The Korean ones don't know us well enough, so they stay open 24 hours."

On fashion: "People putting their clothes on backwards: Isn't that a sign of something gone wrong? . . . People with their hats on backwards, pants down around the crack, isn't that a sign of something, or are you waiting for Jesus to pull his pants up? Isn't it a sign of something when she has her dress all the way up to the crack and got all type of needles [piercings] going through her body? What part of Africa did this come from? Those people are not Africans; they don't know a damn thing about Africa.

"With names like Shaniqua, Taliqua and Mohammed and all of that crap, and all of them are in jail. Brown versus the Board of Education is no longer the white person's problem. We have got to take the neighborhood back. We have to go in there -- forget about telling your child to go into the Peace Corps -- it is right around the corner. They are standing on the corner and they can't speak English."

On sports heroes: "Basketball players -- multimillionaires -- can't write a paragraph. Football players -- multimillionaires -- can't read. Yes, multimillionaires. Well, Brown versus Board of Education: Where are we today? They paved the way, but what did we do with it? That white man, he's laughing. He's got to be laughing: 50 percent drop out, the rest of them are in prison."

On teenage sex: "Five, six children -- same woman -- eight, 10 different husbands or whatever. Pretty soon you are going to have DNA cards to tell who you are making love to. You don't know who this is. It might be your grandmother. I am telling you, they're young enough! Hey, you have a baby when you are 12; your baby turns 13 and has a baby. How old are you? Huh? Grandmother! By the time you are 12 you can have sex with your grandmother, you keep those numbers coming. I'm just predicting. . . .

"What is it -- young girls getting after a girl who wants to remain a virgin? Who are these sick black people and where do they come from and why haven't they been parented to shut up? This is a sickness, ladies and gentlemen."

with all sincerity, isn't he speaking the harsh truth?


Chris Rock: "If Johnny can't read its Mummy fault, if Johnny can't read because there's no light in the house then its Daddy fukkign fault."
 
Quite true bout the deal with cosby and rock only being able to say such things. And it's absolutely true. I feel bad for the kids who grow up in such situations, and know no better than to raise their kids in the same way. Its an endless cycle of poverty and low-classness. America sucks. I need to move somewhere else
 
Honestly, I do see a lot of African American people around this area specifically that I cannot for the life of me....UNDERSTAND. There area also some hard to understand white people too though, but I don't notice them as much.

Durtay Souff....Fo Shizzle?
 
Those crazy kids and their desperate craving for pound cake. I've always thought pound cake should be illegal.
 
the NAACP needs to STFU sometimes.

Maybe instead of pointing fingers they should work towards better goals so people don't have anything to offend them with.
 
The sorriest thing of all is that this is perpuated because blacks that speak eloquently are labeled as talking "white." It's and absurd cycle that must be broken. My kids are interracial and my wife and I refuse to have our children grow up sounding like ignorant fools. We stress proper English constantly although we're always fighting against the influence of their friends and classmates.

If the NAACP didn't consistently try to keep the brother man down, then their reps would have to find real jobs

The NAACP needs to be disolved. You don't see the KKK controlling the government anymore do you? Hell no. No one but the KKK would support that movement. How the bloody hell does the NAACP get away with it?

Where will you go?
I didn't realize that poverty was a uniquely American tradition.

Perhaps I should move to Canada or Brazil or Thailand or England or Russia or China or Congo or India...

You know - one of those countries that has somehow managed to eliminate poverty?

You've obviously never seen Fat Albert cartoons, then.

I think you need to read your children's grammar books.

That's just dumb.
I was trying to be. I like Bill C, Just the first thing that came to mind was the voices of all the Fat Albert characters (which he created).

nah, they are just illegal to fat people....

I do understand what he's trying to say. Rosa Parks was arrested for being a political activist. A black person who robs a store and gets shot for it is no political activist. In Canada we have a similar problem, but with our natives. The majority of whom are decent, and good people, but there are a few who procede to be complete dumbarses, breaking into everything, and they think they are being discriminated against. No, retard, you are getting arrested for B&E.
