Lonsberry's Racist, Sexist and Classist remarks

Below is a transcript of Bob Lonsberry's remarks on his show, June 10th where he attacked the women in the young mother's program, Rochester Black Scholars and people who support them.

There is a story about um “Girls who got pregnant in high school and they stay in high school and let’s give them a special award and tell them how proud we are of em.”

Or we could tell them they should have left their frickin pants on, right. Keep your legs together uh-sweet cheeks and everything will be ok.

See here is the deal. We will have a school where there will be 50 girls who graduate with honors and there will be 5 girls who get pregnant. Who do we have the special program for? Who do we give the certificate too? Who do we put stories about in the paper and tell them how proud we have. “Little sister” take your pants off and spread your legs, that’s who gets the certificate.

You have people who do what’s right who work hard and achieve and excel and set a good example and they don’t make the paper, they don’t make anything there is no special program for you “ Oh I’m so proud, look how proud I am of you your so brave. No she’s easy ok. And again I was born when my mother was 18 and brought up so I’m not, But Its why hold some ones failure up and pretend oh I’m so proud of you .You did such a good job. Look you didn’t quit.

Well no, you did what was expected of you. Oh and by the way you did something really dumb, which screwed up your life and probably screwed up the life of the child you bore. Oh and by the way I would like to point out that the whole thing is being paid for via welfare and by the taxpayer. So I’m not sure why you get a stinkin certificate.

Could I please turn over here and honor someone who truly achieved somebody. Let’s take that girl out of that troubled neighborhood who did not get pregnant. Right and let them uh get the honor.

Here is another thing too. That black scholars program pissed me off. You see if you get a B plus or if you get a B and your black you get your picture and your name in the paper. You’re a black scholar.

B doesn’t make you a scholar. You know what you do is, you have these vast number of, No, when you praise those who haven’t truly achieved you end up holding up bad examples and you end up rewarding something less than true achievement which means that you kind of disintentivise true achievement.

You know what I would do with black scholars? I would put in there folks who have an A. People who got 90 or above or 95. Make it a truly select group of people who are there because they truly worked hard, they didn’t just show up. I am not exactly sure having a B makes you a scholar. I am not exactly going to put black scholar together. If your white and you have a B your average if your black and have a B you get your picture in the paper. What’s that message right there huh. Any time you endorse and reward failure and mediocrity you will only have more mediocrity.
