Did you hear what Bill Cosby said last week?! Something like:

"We fought for integrated education, but the poor blacks of our country are not fulfilling their part of the bargain. Instead of paying bills or sending their kids to college, they buy $150 sneakers. And I can't even have a conversation with these people. All they say is 'Who is you?' and 'What you is?'"

I couldn't believe it!!!! Then he said that African-Americans should stop complaining every time a black kid is shot. He said that they get shot for stealing "Coke and pund cake" and instead of bitching about him being shot, they should ask what the hell he was doing with "the pound cake."

I was stunned. He is getting to be quite risque in his old age.
