I’ll believe it when I see the evidence. Until then it’s just the liberals trying to destroy someone who got off the plantation.

He claimed that Cosby would house those of whom he was particularly fond in apartments and give them up to $2,000 per month.

I don't have a horse in this race because I don't know enough to separate truth from fiction here. I do have a hard time believing Cosby was "fond" of people he allegedly "drugged". I have a hard time believing he would "give" $2000 per month for women he allegedly "raped". Dunno if he is guilty or innocent, but I would not be surprised to discover the truth isn't out there just yet.

I don’t pity these women. WTH does a young girl expect going to the “dressing room” of a famous, horny, moron?

The stupid must hurt.

I am so tired of FReepers blaming victims. If it were your daughters you would not feel this way. Aware young women would at least expect that if Mr. BILL COSBY tried to hit on them, that they would have a say in it. With his reputation, girls would expect a modicum of humanity.

And naive women would say, oh, this is totally safe. He is Bill Cosby, he wouldn’t try anything. He has a guy right outside his trailer so I could just yell.

NO ONE EXPECTED THE ROOFIES.

Cosby is still firmly planted on the Plantation.

Why did they allow these kids to be alone in a room with this man?

Got news for you. Teens are alone with adults all the time. After class. After practice. In the principal’s office. With the church youth director. And in all of these situations, kids have been sexually taken advantage of. It is customary on a call back in the industry for the teen to talk alone to the agent / producer / casting director for at least some of the interview, to get her away from parental influence.

Sending your kid to Hollywood is child abuse.

Better to blame the victims than that towering icon of conservatism, Bill Cosby! /s
