None of us want our children to be murderers or thieves. But Cosby never acknowledges that most poor blacks don't have a choice about these things.

He exposes his faulty thinking with a statement like this. Everyone has choices, regardless of what idiots like Tyson might think.

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

Yes. I agree completely.

And Happy Easter to you and yours!

I couldn't believe this line! This is so insulting. Poor people "ust don't know the difference" between right and wrong? I guess that means that rich people must be the most moral people in our society. Yep, like Ted Kennedy.

Of course, taken in one sense, a lot of what he said we can agree with.

Emphasis on we, since when can a professor at the University of Pennsylvania speak for middle class blacks in America? He sounds like a cop at an accident scene. "Nothing to see here, move along." Cosby spoke out at a section of society that he more readily represents than others, but rather than backing up his message, black democrats and race baiters condemn the messenger and his message. Telling their constituents don't listen to him, he doesn't know what's good for you, "you don't know no better."
