No, I'm questioning the "third" bit since she was shot before the cops.

Leaving out this story makes him look like a "cop killer" instead of a disturbed man on a rampage.

I think that's rather deliberate on the part of the powers that be. Because if you say that Brinsley shot his girlfriend then went up to NYC to shoot a couple of cops in order to gain notoriety it doesn't quite read as victim-y as "the cops were shot down by someone from Maryland because of Eric Garner and Michael

Wow, I haven't heard a damn thing about this. There's been such a strong push for the narrative where these cops are somehow 'victims' of the public backlash against unjustified murders of unarmed black men that this poor woman's life has been completely drowned out.

A squillion. A squillion women. And none of them better have ever made a single questionable decision. Ever. Even after.

This is like Suge Knight crossing the street when he sees you. Something in the milk just ain't clean.

Welllll...that's because truth.

Banks is a far worse bigot than Iggy

Actually, they're probably fine (we're Canadian though so it didn't come up.) He also thinks Jian Ghomeshi is 100% guilty and a terrible person, sooooo ... I really don't know what his issue with Cosby is.

I had a good friend from college tell me that she thinks we have access to too much information these days, and then said (I wish I were kidding, I used to be quite close with her) "Like with Bill Cosby. Why do we need to know about what happened twenty years ago? It just makes everyone upset."

I'm almost wondering how he even ever had time to work. Was he just hanging out in his goddamn patchwork robe, raping people like constantly?

I made a preemptive and unequivocal statement about how self-delusional his supporters were. Nip that shit in the bud!

Maybe I missed something but I REALLY find it telling that no one from Black Hollywood besides Whoopi and other convicted rapists are coming to his side. Not Mrs. Rashad not Mr. Poitier not even Mr. Belafonte. I mean NO ONE is rushing to his defense. No one is saying 'Oh Dr. Cosby is incapable of doing this because

Family Christmas get-together last night. It only took about half an hour for my idiot uncle to start talking about Bill Cosby, and how most of his accusers are probably "coked up skanks."

We've reached the point where BC rape accusations are just becoming a part of the everyday national discourse. "Well, Bob, it's 45 and clear out with gusty winds from the Southwest, and 2 more women have come forward against Bill Cosby."

Yeah, I don't think she's evil, exactly. But she has had opportunities to be educated at this point, and the fact that she hasn't taken them makes me think that at the very least, she is actively not being a good person.

That's very mature of you!

G-ddammit! Can we just stop talking about her? At least until the end of the year? I've had my quota of racist shit that we MUST discuss this year. 2014 has been awful for race relations and discussing the racism of some un-fucking-talented bitch is just too much to handle during the remainder of the year.

I just read the headline and I already love this article.

"It's difficult for me to even wrap my mind around the audacity that it would take for a white woman to saunter her way through a culture rooted in blackness and then constantly try to push race aside."
