I don't bother myself with celebrities' crimes or no crimes. It's the issue of judge. Or God or whoever knows better of details.

Of course I still keep the good memories of them.

Background:
I always wanted to be 1-A in morals. But the day I failed I failed huge. From that day on I know how FAILURES a fix part of our existence are. Yes, you can fail in your own (neat and clean) value system. Yet you 're not able to imagine it unless it happens to you.

lol, I remember once upon a time ago my Pisces Moon dad saying that something was "not right" about Bill Cosby

Maybe because his Moon in Virgo clashes with yours? (and not with Montgomery's?)

BTW, is it a good thing to have Neptune in Virgo?
(almost conjting moon and sextile to Mars/Scorp)?

And yeah...Lisa Bonet. Any remarks from her would be interesting.


Are all of his accusers white women?

He's innocent until proven guilty.


Now if I may, when I cry..a wet solution called tears flows down each side of my face. Takes a lot for me to cry. I've seen many victims of various assaults. THEY CRY...they have the same solution (tears) that are identical to mine.

I don't know about you folks, but that video of Janet breaking down and bawling, not one drop of liquid.

Janice Dickinson


In Janice Dickinson??s 2002 autobiography No Lifeguard on Duty:

The Accidental Life of the World??s First Supermodel
, she

-- SUPPOSEDLY --

wrote about how she had an uncomfortable and creepy meeting with

Bill Cosby in Lake Tahoe in the early 80s. Janice told Entertainment

Tonight last night that her meeting with Bill Cosby was more than just

uncomfortable and creepy. She says that he drugged and raped her.

Janice wrote about it in the first draft of her autobiography, but after

her publisher HarperCollins got a copy of it and it went through fact

checking, Bill Cosby??s lawyers did what they do: they pressured

HarperCollins to take a Magic Eraser to that part of Janice's book.

So she says she was forced to leave that part out.


😐 Keep reading...


Ever since Hannibal Buress pulled the Bill Cosby rape allegations from out

under the rug, accusers have come forward to tell their story, so Janice

felt like it's time for her to let it be known that America??s so-called

beloved TV father of the 80s assaulted her too. Janice says that in 1982,

she was in Bali after spending some time in rehab and Bill Cosby called

her and offered to fly her to Lake Tahoe, CA to talk about how he can help her

with her career. Janice went and after they had dinner in Lake Tahoe, Bill gave

her some wine and a pain pill, which she asked for because she was having

period cramps. Janice says she blacked out and woke up the next morning

with her pajamas off and it was obvious that she was raped.

The last thing Janice remembers before blacking out is Bill Cosby getting on top

of her.

Janice never went to the cops and never confronted Bill Cosby about it.

--

😐 'Blackout' in no way means 'unconscious'... js


And I'm leaving out the part where she blames Cosby

(instead of herself, and whatever behavior sent her to

rehab the first time, and God knows how many times before

Dr Phil got ahold of her for Celebrity Rehab 4) for the

wreckage of her life.

I'll link it, for anyone who cares to read it.

--


... last night, Cosby??s lawyer Marty Singer released a

letter to The Wrap where he said

... that Janice Dickinson is lying and Cosby was never contacted by HarperCollins

about that passage in her book
. Marty Singer says that Janice contradicted herself

in her book and in a 2002 interview with The New York Observer when she said that

Cosby —blew her off?? because she refused to have sex with him after dinner
.

---------



That, I can believe.

What I'm finding odd is the curious lack of defenders for Mr. Cosby

Where are his friends, family, co-workers?

People in his circle are remaining tight-lipped about all this, with the only protestations of his innocence coming from his lawyers. Every one else in the circle appears to be standing by, watching the sharks coming in to finish him off.





The lawyers are the only ones who SHOULD be

talking.

Acknowledging nonsense gives it undo credence,

and I'd like to think they aren't playing.

Just my opinion... 🙂

i mentioned this to my husband, and he said something like, it's always the family-traditional-projecting good types that you got to be worried about. Of course, he's joking around. We don't know what's REALLY going on with him. but he did portray alot of good, moral followings in his sitcom. Like how to be a good family and stay together through it all. In the sitcom, both him and his wife are doctors and they have beautiful children, beautiful home, the works.

I'm disturbed how easily people just shrug off these women's stories because that's what our culture does- excuses rape for the stupidest reasons.

I've read a few of the accounts of the victims and it's all textbook sexual predator behavior. And people are ridiculous if you think that persona dismisses such allegations. You'd be amazed what types of guys don't appear to be sexual predators. I know of someone who's a family man, known and very involved with the community. Likes to help people, is a nice person, etc.

But the dude has sexually assaulted women and targets "easy" targets (read vulnerable).

I think it's sad how much of a rape culture we really are, yet nobody really thinks of it. Any time a sexual assault victim comes forward, the first concern is that people will accuse them of lying and/or blame them. It's a rough thing to deal with and the victims usually feel humiliated, scared, etc and have a hard time discussing it or bringing it up. So when you add that to the usual reaction of our highly chauvinistic society, it's always lose-lose. It's no coincidence that this many women are stepping forward, sorry to say. It's one thing to be critical when it's one or two. But we're hitting the teens here in numbers. You can no longer ignore or make up excuses for what's obviously a serious issue coming to light.

And fuck you CC. Women like your dipshit ass saying brainless nonsense like "only hot guys should be allowed to rape" is why rape victims can't be taken seriously. You're total trash and an embarrassment to females.

I've read all the accounts from all the accusers. All of them willingly took drugs to get high while with him. Two claim their drink was spiked with drugs, one claimed she consensually continued a short term affair with him.

What I find ironic, they all felt that their career $ $ $ $ $ trumped reporting the claimed vicimizations. That was a choice each made making a burden of proof extremely difficult. They made this choice.

When you decide MONEY is more important than the horrible accounts they claim..well it speaks volumes and those witnessing this crap taking place now ARE NOT saying rape/sexual assault is ok, instead it's how the hell does one put a price over being raped/assaulted—?

One thing I'd like to see. One of the victims says she was getting ready in her green room about to appear on the "Tonight Show". She claims Bill Cosby gave her pills and then stuck his dick in her mouth. I want to see the clip of this "victim" with Johnny Carson and her interview after this horrible attack. That will sum up how EACH felt MONEY/CAREER was a priority.

He's innocent until proven guilty. Period.

There was always something off, twisted with this man.

hindsight bias is always amusing.



😄

He was always a creep and I never understood why ppl liked him.

I could have told you this before these allegations.

Don't hate others for their abilities to see things lol

But nobody in his camp is righteously indignant, no protests, no outraged response

it makes me think they are just watching him be crucified

Very telling, indeed.


My only feelings on this (which is all you all are talking about since you've got no other facts to go on) is that if the woman are truthful, then they will be able to find their justice.

did you guys see this from Comedian Hannibal Buress?

http://www.debarayonline.com/comedian-hannibal-buress-disses-bill-cosby-calls-him-a-rapist/<BR>
Bill Cosby has the f—ing smuggest old black man public persona that I hate. —Pull your pants up, black people. I was on TV in the ??80s. I can talk down to you because I had a successful sitcom.??
—Yeah, but you raped women, Bill Cosby. So, it brings you down a couple notches??_.I don't curse on stage. But yeah, you??re a rapist.??
—I want to just at least make it weird for you to watch —Cosby Show?? reruns. If you don't know about it, trust me. When you leave here, Google —Bill Cosby rape.?? That shit has more results than Hannibal Buress.??
He's gotten a lot of backlash for the comments but he's yet to apologize."

it's actually way before this is all going down. there was a video done on Bill Cosby where the interviewer asked about what Hannibal Buress said about his "rapist" joke. Bill Cosby said no comment, but kept going on and on even after the camera went off. Told the interviewer don't allow that comment. And the interviewer said, something like, yeah but you said nothing and no comment. He didn't understand. who knows.

it's weird cause all these men in power in the last decade or so are falling from their perch. Like Tiger woods, mel Gibson, arnold schwarzenneger, and so many more. power is corruptive. *smh* or can be in their case.

number 1 is a very high possibility though.

people who want to reach where Cosby is at, hate what the wealthy and the rich have.

it's like, people who are in wealthy neighborhoods have to get high level security because there are criminals who will just take whatever they have earned.

And shit on their turkish white marbled floors.



😆





And you're right.

They will be the biggest supporters of the smear campaign, to be sure.

Same attitude at work during a sexual assault/harassment class - men and women blaming the victim. I was so scared of the people in the room. I worked so hard to control my inner donkey kong.

He did something to the industry im sure. they want him up outta there.

Pedos like Woody Allen, Xmen director, Roman Polanski out there working but Bill who's donated millions to black education, created an ATG black family sitcom, I spy, picture pages, fat albert etc, has whores from 1970 coming out the woodwork to say he touched them in a strange way. Bitch you were high AF.FOH

Jesus Christ. Judging by the responses of so many here, I understand why these women would be so reluctant to come forward until now. So much blame shifting it's unreal.


there has to be some truth to these allegations, there are just too many. And assault is assault, i don't care if these bitches were fucking murderers.



Right? It's such pathetic logic. Try that shit when your mom/sister/aunt/female friend/girlfriend gets raped.

"Oh well, she was a slut, so she had it coming."

"Oh she put herself in that situation, she had it coming."

"Oh she's a druggie. You can't believe anything she says."


It is motherfucking 2014 and people are STILL using this same, shitty logic?

"Until now?" Again..let's take a look at that.

These women chose $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ MONEY $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ (and drugs)as a priority THEN over what they call horrible assaults NOW. That was their CHOICE.

If anyone shifted...it's these women who chose NOT TO BE A VICTIM when it happened because MONEY was more important. Their problem.

Some of us are allowed to point that FACT out. None of us were witnesses, therefore NONE OF US are allowed to judge whether or not these allegations are true. Just the facts in a court room where he is INNOCENT until proven GUILTY.

Seriously, the rape apologism is rampant up in this b!t.ch.

Painkillers(in a single dose)don't even make the average person pass out & lose consciousness like that. BC was clearly slipping 'em much stronger sedatives.

Furthermore, why would these women be "lying for attention/money/revenge"?
Look at the outcome of these 20some women coming forth; here we got men, as well other(brainwashed, indoctrinated)females calling them golddigging liars, wh0r.es, every accusation in the book--preemptively. Society's immediate response is to defend the man being accused rather than give credence to the alleged victims--who by the way, clearly have little/nothing to gain by coming clean with their stores.



That urban myth that women lie about rape is still rampant in our society. The stats are actually quite the opposite- the lying bitches who are lying bitches are a small minority in all the reported cases. However, the sad truth is that many cases go unreported no thanks to the attitudes displayed here by these ignorant, disgusting asshats. And the cases that ARE reported? My understanding is that rape kits are in such backlog that the cases are never seen/investigated and the rapist will get away with his (her) crime.

It's also quite sad that for being the country that we are that we have such third world/primitive thinking in regard to women's safety/sexual safety. It appears that many men (and some women, apparently) see females as 2nd class citizens/objects who have their rights shrugged off when violently assaulted in such a way.

"Well what did SHE do??"

It just goes in line with all the archaic thinking that men just CANNOT/don't HAVE to control themselves when their dick gets a tingly and women are to blame because of it. A lot of "he's not accountable" bullshit.

Normally I'd defend a man against old accusations but I think the chickens have come home to roost for ole' Bill Cosby. Too many women have come forward for me to doubt his innocence. He also paid off a bunch of women not to take it to court. Plus, anecdotally, I know a woman where I work who saw Bill Cosby feel up 2 young girls at a fund raiser she helped organize over 20 years ago. This time I believe the court of public opinion got it right.
