<b>We Can't Blame White People</b>

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.

People marched and were hit in the face with rocks to get an
education, and now we've got these knuckleheads walking around.

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 they
won't spend $200 for Hooked on Phonics.

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?

People putting their clothes on backward: Isn't that a sign of something gone wrong?

People with their hats on backward, 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, and got all type of needles [piercing] going through her body?

What part of Africa did this come from?

We are not Africans.

Those people are not Africans; they don't know a 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.

People used to be ashamed... [Today] a woman has eight children with eight different `husbands' -- or men or whatever you call them now.

We have millionaire football players who can't read.

We have million-dollar basketball players who can't write two paragraphs.

We as black folks have to do a better job. Someone working at Wal-Mart with seven kids, you are hurting us. We have to start holding each other to a higher standard.

We cannot blame white people.

I remember hearing this awhile back, and hearing that so many black people were upset at him for saying it. I agree with most of what he said there.

Gotta agree with him. Cosby's always had a very straight vocabulary in his shows, including the Cosby Show. And it is indeed sad we have people like he talks about.

I've seen it & it's not pretty... Wife, I & another couple decided to drive down to the Detroit Zoo & look around for the day... There were a lot of Kids & Parents all around the Zoo.. We were sitting in a picnic area like thing having a cold drink & a black Woman in her late teens, I'd say, came up pushing a stroller with a wee baby & about a 2 & 1/2 year old little boy.. Myself & the little boy were playing peek a boo with each other while the Mom got a drink.. When she was ready to leave, she yelled at the little boy, "Get over here Getto Boy"!!!! I couldn't believe it. That poor little boy being called "Getto Boy" by his Mother!!! I told my Wife, how sad I felt for him.. He didn't even have a chance at 2 & 1/2 years old, I felt!!! I'll never forget that as long as I live... I still wonder what happened to those 2 children... [sad]

I think he was bold, but I would go a step further and say that this isn't so much a black thing as it is a generational thing. I see white people that fit this description quite well. I went to buy jeans today and couldn't find any that didn't look like I had a giant pile of steaming crap in my trunks. People can't talk normal anymore, white or black, and it's just embaressing and frightening to think that these imbiciles will be the future leaders of this country.

You are 100% Right! One of my best friends sons wears his pants at half mast, he mumble talks most of the time, like he has something to say but doesn't want anyone to hear it, he and his best friend decided to photocopy and duplicate some paper currency, I think he left his brain in the toilet.

The cops had him in custody the same day he passed the bills, it was a frustrating feeling watching them take him away, and I'm not even his father. My friend and I were talking later and admitted that we had really done some dumb stuff growing up, but nothing like that, and as you say these kids are the future of our country.

And sometimes I wonder if I'm not being mean trying to tell people to fix their spelling online. I know that can be the pedantic POV, but seriously, nowadays even bosses or authorities can't even write right. I don't even have such a strong education compared to people like Flamey, possibly you, AMD_Man or the other students who took AP or Honor classes (whatever higher ed classes you got in the English education system), and yet I've always managed to get by grammar so well, mostly because I create tricks to remember some things. And I understand you don't need grammar or vocabulary for any job, but I also understand that sometimes people mispell one word and it completely changes the meaning of a phrase, and that's when I start getting pissed, when it happens too often.

But I'd have to say for spoken language, it's all about the culture, and in this case I WOULD say the ghetto community made the white community this way (the gangsta talking). No white person could possibly have learnt words like "dawg" if it weren't for the ghetto or gangsta black movement.

That's why when I look at Cosby and then at those kinds of people, I know for a fact that guy did not wrong himself when he said all those things out to the public. He wasn't being hypocritical at all.
I'm not much of a fan of any black sitcom except for Fresh Prince of Bel Air (now that Will Smith KNOWS how to do comedy right!), because all of them have become LAME! It's always teen girls with the "Guuurrl, you know you ain't got it!" (while shaking head left and right and swinging their index))

You got One on One, Girlfriends (how ironic) and some other black sitcoms out there that seriously just don't entertain like Seinfeld, Third Rock from the Sun, Friends or other popular sitcoms do. And it's not to be discriminating, but because it's my opinion and probably one shared by many. It's just not funny stuff, the ghetto talk sitcoms. Actually one episode will seem great to you, but that's it, afterwards you grow annoyed and bored by what is usually pretty funny to hear on TV or in real life. (or especially in gangsta rap songs and videos).

Bah I've ranted enough.

When I say it's a generational thing I should point out that I saw the same thing in Sweden. Over there it is quite possibly worse though since they're posers.

Oh and yeah, Wingy and Aubby definitely have a strong grammar. Wingy of course, because of his linguistics degrees, and Aubbie, um...well it's kinda ironic LOL. Quite a goofy and not so serious guy, but also very much into his grammar. Heck he even puts periods in MSN messages!

I meant I agree with you most guts in prison can't wait to get out and start where they left off...no remorse no worries about their kids or family just get out there and start slingin' their term for whatever there in to drugs guns pimpin' whatever. I have a young dude that works for me name: Tutone...been in since he was 16...he's now 24 with 2 to go...and he told me he can't wait to hit a blunt and to start "slingin'" crack again. He ask me could I take a $7.00 an hour job when he could make 14,000 bucks a week? Tough to fight the logic when his family are other men in stir, no real education, just a lot of programs completed

No they won't, not for the most part. Success is an ounce of crack, a pound of weed, and a bottle of gin.

The people who will rize to political power will be mostly well educated people, including nerds and farmer's kids. That's right, farmer's kids (including rancher's kids). The people who DON'T do that crap because they don't see a future in it.

Basically if you haven't become straight-laced by the time you finished high school, you probably won't get into a good university. And if you don't get that university education (usually in law), your chances of political success are slim.

Misbehaving?? He was pumped. He didn't do anything wrong. If you say he was wrong for throwing at the hitters, that is true, but he said he didn't want to hit them, which makes perfect sense as the games have been so close. If you hit someone then they get a baserunner. Not a good idea.

Other than that, he was just PUMPED... Typical Cubs - Cards series.

And whoever is hot right now (Rolen or TheOtherGuyWhosNameJustEscapedMe, oh, Edmonds) reminds me of Sosa a few years ago when he hit 20 homers in June... Just on a major TEAR...
