Jordan Davis Had 2 Parents, Bill Cosby!

And my main point is that statistical outliers do not change the validity of Cosby's statements even if you pretend that he says that all problems stem from single parent families.

The reality is the single largest predictor of poverty (statistically), and all the problems that poverty includes, is a child born to an unmarried mother (one that never married, if you are married when you have the kids then divorce this statistic changes drastically). Now while Bill says that, you pretend that he means "all problems stem from unmarried mothers" and then extrapolate he believes that because of that Hollywood's issues must be from the same, and do it in a sarcastic (should we say sardonic) statement that tries to dismiss the validity of what Bill actually talks about. You dislike what Bill has to say so you try to mock him away with sarcasm misapplied in a very intellectually dishonest means.

Basically you deploy the standard of logical fallacy set by the leftists that I speak with everywhere, the straw man fallacy.

It is much easier to mock somebody when you attribute nonsense to them, especially nonsense they never stated.

Well said, Darla and that prick Dantes use the same tactic for virtually every situation and topic.

Damo's logical fallacy is saying that because I questioned one of Cosby's statements it means I questioned all of them.


  1. If P, then Q. (If I dislike everything Cosby says, then I dislike his comment about single parenthood.)
  2. Q. (I dislike the comment about single parenthood.)
  3. Therefore, P. (I dislike everything Cosby says.)

Affirming the consequent.

Of course the problem then becomes how do you raise the wages of women who are the caretakers and providers of most single parent families and get the low life men who won't accept responsibility for their children to contribute. But neither you or Cosby want to deal with the real cause of poverty in single parent homes which is income disparity. The solution to poverty is pure and simple--more money! Forcing people into unworkable marriages--many unworkable because of the lack of money in the first place--is not a solution at all; but giving single parent households more income in the form of higher wages or greater income subsidies is a workable solution! More money ends poverty!

How about they don't have children if they can't afford them?

Fair enough, thanks for the explanation.
 
I wonder if Cosby thinks all the problems of Hollywood result from single-parent households because there are an awful lot of stars having babies out of wedlock.

Yes poverty is simply not enough money; those with enough money are not living in poverty therefore they are irrelevant to Cosby; if he came up with a way to inject more money into the inner cities he could forget about baggie pants. They do not cause poverty. Poverty is a lack of money! Kids shouldn't be working they should be attending school. And if they are working who cares what kind of pants they wear! He produces no statistics to show that employers are aware of who is wearing baggie pants on the street and not hiring them! The statistics on the differences in numbers of unemployed white people and unemployed black people show that people still aren't hiring black people. So that might be part of the problem, too! When the unemployment rate for white people fell during the Clinton years to under 4 percent in most areas, the unemployment rate for Black people feel to under 5-6 percent. Showing that when the rate was low black people were applying for and becoming gainfully employed. Therefore it seems quite disingenuous to say that the unemployment rate among Black people is over 24 percent or more because they don't want to work or because they wear baggie pants. Bullshit, pure and simple.

Now, wait just a minute.
If Dante's is a lazy fuck and won't work, then I guess someone could classify that as an "income disparity"; when in fact it's a lack of motivation disparity.

I love that you pretend Cosby telling kids to pull up their pants is suppose to be a panacea for all of poverty's challenges. Your OP is dishonest, your post here is dishonest.
