Bill Cosby thread

[burmafrd]

What if they are both drunk?

does not matter today- the guy is still automatically guilty.

 

[burmafrd]

i doubt he'll face legal ramifications, but his career and legacy is in the toilet. Hard to imagine a harder fall from grace than Cosby has had the last 12 months.

Lance Armstrong. OJ Simpson.

Its just kind of weird that people get away with this because of fame, Roman Polanski, Woody Allen there's even some odd rumours about Morgan Freeman....

I hear you, but I think there are plenty of non-famous people that get away with all sorts of serial crimes for any number of reasons. It's just more news worthy when it's someone famous.

Makes no sense to me. The girl can lose the ability to know right from wrong when she is intoxicated, but a man is still supposed to be keep his wits about him while intoxicated? Where is the equality in that?

Rape is Female Victim only offense like DV.

No. I am saying some are for their 15 minutes.
Back that long ago Concerts and groupies did the same thing.
No saying this is right.
But what did they go in there expecting? I know not to be drugged but.....

Not all of these are groupies. He set up meetings with several of them with the hopes of getting on the show or mentoring them on their career.

It is also funny to hear other comedians talk about how Cosby would rip on them for cussing, yet he's drugging and raping women. He's a sick dude.

Lance Armstrong. OJ Simpson.

Both celebrities, and well liked, but Cosby was on a Mr. Rogers type level. The all-american dad. I'm just talking about somebody you'd least expect to be involved in something this heinous on that magnitude.

 

[BoysFan4ever]

he's a sick guy & obviously was for decades.

Major celebrity. Probably worth a gazillion dollars. Not like he couldn't have had his kicks from women just based on his name.

But he chose to drug women for sex. I guess he enjoyed the power of that. Sick.

He definitely "played" the part of the "good egg"... I always thought he was over the top with chastising other comedians for cursing.

I remember eddie murphy his cosby skit.... Tell Bill I said have a coke and a smile and to shut the front door.

Have a Coke and a smile you pudding pop eating #$@&%*! You gotta love Richard Pryor's usage of the English language.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

You just looking for someone to argue with?

No. I'm just saying "There's always the CFL" is usually good advice. "Get in my van" usually isn't.

Uhhh.... what?

 

[JoeKing]

What if they are both drunk?

There is still no legal consent so it's still rape.

 

[Jammer]

There is still no legal consent so it's still rape.

So every time a drunk man and woman hook up for a one night stand the guy is committing rape?

well you should have heard some attack him because he said that a lot of the problems with black poverty, etc was due to what blacks did and did not do as much as supposedly whitey keeping them down.

pretty much now- especially in California and a few other places.
