Cosby’s wife wrote a racist editorial in the 1990s.

When a Russian Immigrant murdered her son over a car jacking or something, she (basically) said ‘Russian? Didn’t take him long to learn how to be an American White’...or something along that line.

My thought at the time was if it wasn’t for the American Whites, she wouldn’t have been able to afford to live in Beverly Hills Hills or wherever and if she had a REAL problem, clear her conscience and give BACK all the money that came from White interests and entities.

Dave Chappelle lives in Yellow Springs, Ohio, in an area that is 81% white.

He also has a habit of insulting his audiences:

You know why my show is good? Because the network officials say you're not smart enough to get what I'm doing, and every day I fight for you. I tell them how smart you are. Turns out, I was wrong. You people are stupid.

Don't care how funny he is, he's a racist and a jerk.

Yellow Springs, Ohio -- the erstwhile home of Antioch College, now blissfully defunct.

My guess is that there are more liberal genes per capita in Yellow Springs than any other town in the USA -- with the possible exception of Berkeley.

Chris Rock is funny, I never found Chappelle funny. But you cant expect to like everything a comic says, that’s part of comedy - it talks about things on the weird edge of acceptance.

A negro comedian so drunk on entitlement koolaid that he thinks affirmative action forces audiences to laugh at his jokes. Now, THAT’S funny.

I was at this show. Chappelle was the last act of the evening. There were quite a few acts that evening but the vibe I got that evening was that everyone was there specifically to see him. It was a semi-outdoor venue with around 8,000 people in attendance. The doors opened at 5:30 and he came out sometime after ten — yes, most of the crowd was good and liquored up by then. He was received with a rowdy standing ovation... it was hardly a hostile crowd. Yes, there were drunken idiots yelling out his catchphrases and people were cheering at every little thing he said; people were excited to see the guy and that’s pretty much what you’d expect given the venue.

About five minutes in he started accusing the audience of being weird and started insulting us. At first people thought it was part of the act and just went with it, laughing and whatnot. Then he sat down and started smoking cigarettes and told us he wasn’t going to perform until we shut up. That’s when some people started heckling him — yes, they were drunk, but they paid good money for the show and they wanted their money’s worth. He could have easily defused the situation but instead chose to stoke the flames. He kept telling us that he had our money already and that when his time was up he was leaving. And, true to his word, after his time was up he left. The crowd was not initially hostile by any means, but rather only became hostile after he made it clear that he fully intended to rip us off and walk away with our money because “something” about us was “off” (and, apparently, that “something” was the fact that we were predominantly white).

I was a fan of the guy. Not so much anymore. What he pulled that night was completely classless.
