Lena Dunham Blasts ‘Legal System’ After Cosby Mistrial
NBC Bay Area ^ | June 17, 2017 | Melkorka Licea

Twitter erupted with an array of disgusted and supportive posts about Bill Cosby‘s mistrial on Saturday after a judge declared a mistrial in the bombshell sexual assault case.

“Try him again. #CosbyTrial. Heart goes out to the women who came forward,” blasted comedian Kristen Schaal, 39, who plays the voice of Louise Belcher in FOX comedy “Bob’s Burgers.” “Without that courage there will be more victims. Serial rapist.”

“Girls” creator Lena Dunham, 31, was quick to express repugnance for the outcome: “Bill Cosby’s trial is about much more than Bill Cosby. When women see justice served, their own fear & trauma are eased.”

Lena must have forgotten she wrote in her book about molesting her sister and then lying about someone raping her in college too.

I saw her twitter quotes on another site and posted them in another thread earlier.

Lena Dunham knows when a rape has been committed:

Whenever it pleases her to say so.

Could anyone have less credibility on this subject?

I guess I missed it too. I saw some misguided lunacy about historical scars, but not a lot of seething racial hate.

Perhaps you’re sensitive.

The case was weak, and was prosecuted many years after the alleged crime with NO physical evidence to back it up.

“Perhaps you’re sensitive.”

Perhaps you are obtuse. Here is another.

Or maybe I’ve seen “seething racial hate” up close... Don’t discount the possibility.

"Cosby was taken out because he strayed from the liberal plantation."

The liberal outrage over Cosby is remarkable given the reverent silence over Michael Jackson.

Hard to get worked up about Cosby when Bill Clinton is running around free.

Cosby masks it well. He doesn’t act out, but his words are vicious and deliberate, and consistent over a lifetime.
