I love B.C. Saw him when I was 10 in CA when he was there. Still a funny man and a very decent man when you meet him.

Who hates Bill Cosby? I think he's great and I agree with him 100% on black issues.

Well then, if it's not ALL black people, then what's the big deal?

I'm sure some black person in this world has ALWAYS hated Bill Cosby at every point in his life. Big deal. So some blacks don't like him. Are blacks obligated to like him?

This is a bunch of nonsense anyway. What Bill Cosby had so say about blacks or the black community is his opinion. Moreover, it's a discussion between him and his people. I don't know what the big interest in this discussion could possibly be for non-blacks. Hell, i'm black, and i'm not even all that interested in it.

It's always funny to me how if one black person says something disparaging about the black community (whether it has a kernel of truth or completely false), non-blacks hail it as some kind of triumph as if they have a personal stake in it.

I know what's going on...but it's hilarious to watch it just the same.

Don't forget the tv show "The Wire"

I don't know of any black people who Hate Bill Cosby.

Feeling hyperbolic today? Take two anti-racist tablets, drink plenty of water and get plenty of rest.

Many blacks dislike Bill Cosby for the same reason they hate people like Allen West, these black men have done what it takes to be successful in life and they're in a position where they don't have to worry about PR when speaking their minds about problems in the black community.

Black people hate it when whites talk about their problems, they really hate it when educated, successful blacks talk about them out in the open because it forces them to think for a change.

1) I have never heard any of the Black people that I know (family, friends, friends of friends, acquaintances, co-workers, classmates, etc) express hatred or even a dislike of Bill Cosby and his ideals.

2) It is obvious from your OP that you do not personally know any Black people, so why are you so very concerned about who Black people "like" especially since you do not "like" Black people yourself?

3) Why do Black people need separate leaders? My "leader" has always been and will always be the POTUS. Who is your "leader" David Duke?

4) Numerous 'actual' Black people have posted that the statement in your OP is untrue. Why do you continue to try to force your obviously incorrect stance? What purpose are you attempting to serve besides the usually C-D race baiting?

Do not associate Bill Cosby with Allen West. The only think they have in common is skin color.

Sorry, watching Kat Williams comedy skits doesn't make you an expert on Black people.

Sounds like something you should ask black people since you guys seem to love finding your own separate items for just about everything.

Why do black people need separate colleges?
Why do black people need separate political caucuses?
Why do black people need separate history classes?
Why do black people need separate holidays?
Why do black people need separate months for appreciating?
Why do black people need separate TV stations?
Why do black people need separate political leaders?
