Cosby was great because he broke the color comedy barrier.
He was funny and creative.
He was a role model.
He was a pretty good (so-so) actor.
He called on his fellow African-Americans to snap out of their cultural handcuffs, throw off the RAP message and change themselves for the better. For that we applaud him.

Cosby was a slime ball because he raped many many women over the years. He abused his power and his vices apparently were there for many a hush-hush crowd to see.

Bill Cosby should be judged for both his great and his perverted personality.

It is yet another sad reminder that we should be judged based on our actions, not words.

I’m a little skeptical of all the rape and molest charges. Major stars do attract such charges from time to time, some true. many simply in hunger for the celebrity’s money.For someone like Cosby all it takes is one highly publicized charged and lawyers and avaricious women will pile on to get a piece of the pie. It’s too late to put him in jail and they all know that but they are all looking for Settlements i.e. free money. Cosby needs to fight hard any of these things that go to law suits. Most of them won’t be able to show sufficient “preponderance of evidence” to win. It will be expensive but cheaper than settling. Settling with one will bring out a hundred more and won’t have an end. Fighting it will make it too expensive for lawyers to risk it on less than convincing cases and most if not all will go away.
