I think he struck a nerve. Blacks need more leaders of this caliber, not the radical haters that stir things up because that's what keeps them in business.

Which black people hate Bill Cosby? I know more black folks than you do, and i don't know of even ONE. Since we number over 30 million people, give me the list of the 15+ million blacks in the majority that hate him.

I promise to read it.

Less than zero. He knows what Rush and conservative bloggers tell him on Negro News segments on their shows and blogs. And with that, he's equipped to talk about black people as if he knows them.

The moral fiber of ALL Americans have degenerated not just in the black community. Bill Cosby has wisdom and his message is to help the black community to better themselves.

We have heard the flack Bill Cosby has gotten over his message. Reverend Al Sharpen has a different message.

OP, why does your thread title treat Black people like one monolithic group with one unanimous opinion?

What? I've started threads and I make my own thread title.

There's no word "all," but "the black people" implies "all" in the same way "the blind" implies "all blind people".

Common sense tells me that the connotations behind certain words and phrases have just as much meaning as the denotations. Semantics 101.
