Bill Cosby spoke about his feelings regarding black people and education in his recent rant called We Cannot Blame the White People Any Longer.
Cosby is probably the only person who could get away with talking the way he does because he is well respected among people of all races.
People marched and were hit in the face with rocks to get an education, and now we've got these knuckleheads walking around, he says.
They're standing on the corner and they can't speak English. I can't even talk the way these people talk .You can't be a doctor with that kind of crap coming out of your mouth. In fact you will never get any kind of job making a decent living.
Cosby is especially upset that we have millionaire football players who cannot read or write two paragraphs.
We, as black folks, have to do a better job, he stated. We have to start holding each other to a higher standard.
He believes that Brown or black versus the Board of Education is no longer the white person's problem. We have got to take the neighborhood back.
For the entire rant, see:

Simply another facet of a liar's reactive attempt to shield themselves from discovery. If they keep talking and drown you out, they own the debate through sheer force.
We all innately know that people who do this sort of thing are not being truthful. If they were, they'd be a lot more civil, and willing to actually compare concepts and ideas with you to show you where you're wrong, and they're right.
What liberal ever has a civil, intelligent discussion of this sort?
Exactly.
What liberal ever has a civil, intelligent discussion of this sort?
Good point - I'll rephrase just a little: What Leftist ever has a civil, intelligent discussion of this sort?
Once in a while I'll see an intellectually honest liberal debate their point civilly and with intelligence. The few that don't employ the "Wall of Sound" technique have my respect for their behavior, if not my agreement with their beliefs.
I think Cosby is a liberal or are you just referencing black conservatives in general?
Liberals who will actually have an intelligent debate with you about political philosophy are rare. They're usually the sort of people who have simply been acclimated to liberal views, without having actually examined both sides for themselves. They can be honestly inquisitive. Again - they're rare.
The few that don't employ the "Wall of Sound" technique have my respect for their behavior, if not my agreement with their beliefs.
Some committed liberals will just shut down on you, if you present them with a series of indisputable facts. My dad is like that. He just bows out of the conversation when I pile on the facts and reason.
My siblings, on the other hand, just get louder and more belligerent, the more I undermine their position. It's a reaction, either way.
If they had the truth on their side, they'd simply, and civilly lay it all out for me until I "got it". They can't do that, because their position is shot full of holes, so they protest my outing their support of ignorance and lies. All liars and all liberals do this when challenged with the facts.
yes and yes.
:) Thanks for clarifying.
