String Me Up In The Morning

“I’m actually sad for Bill Cosby.” – Anonymous.

Me too. I can’t help but feeling sad and I don’t know why. I keep looking at the first two sentences. I want write something. I want to give up and leave this article to the big boys, let them spin it and jump on the band wagon and say “yeah that’s it.” Then I can try and get some sleep and never again think about an 81 year old Bill Cosby rotting away in some Pennsylvania jail cell. Its not the same as when Rodney King was whipped by the LAPD police on live TV and a few years later an Ojay Simpson walked on a murder beef, that most of us thought he was guilty of but turned a blind eye, because we thought justice was blind when it came to African Americans. After all Ojay wasn’t black until Ojay was black. Maybe I should just delete this article and let the shit fly where it flies. Maybe I shouldn’t think about the lily white neighborhood where they got their juror pool, and try to remember that the 6th Amendment guarantees you a right to be heard by a jury of your peers. Yes, legal scholars say a juror of your peers doesn’t mean just because you are black, you get to be tried by black jurors, but when it was written how many blacks you think was here in America being invited for juror duty? Now I want to throw this whole article away and start all over. I want to bring up Brett Kavanaugh, but don’t want to put his nasty name in the same sentence with Bill Cosby. Kavanaugh has never done anything for us and never will. Personally I think he is a sexual abuser and liar. I think those backing him just want to say they know a Supreme Court Justice. Its just about networking. They really don’t care if Brett tried to rape them, their Mother , Sister or Aunt, as long as they are invited to the party. They don’t give a damn. Our President’s backing of people like Roy Moore,  Roy Ailes, Corey Lewandowski , Rob Porter and Bill O’reilly, most of whom landed with a golden parachute, only ask’s us to re-examine a false universal. “Don’t hate the player, hate the game.” Yes I feel sad, but I think I have figured it out. I would have felt more sad if Bill Cosby would have drugged my daughter and tried to rape her. The sadness I feel is not for Bill Cosby, its for the game.
