RE: Bill Cosby the role model?

There's also the fact that he hasn't been found guilty. These are just allegations.

You're Correct! I'm waiting for Barack and Eric to defend him.

If Barack had a grandfather..........

This makes me sad on many levels regarding Cosby.

Now as far as a Jesse Jackson, he is a pimp race hustler. Calling him a "reverend" is a joke. I might as well be called an Olympic gold medalist because I compete in the Jr. Olympics as a 14-year old. If you ever met JJ, you would not be impressed.

So you are saying that he is guilty until proven innocent? Oh yeah, he's black so that's probably right.

Or are you saying that people such as 'Barack and Eric' will defend him no matter what? Because they are black?

What exactly are you trying to say?

It's a big blow for the conservatives who put him up on a pedestal with all the other blacks who publicly decry their own. It's certainly their right to do so, but people might want to consider putting their own houses in order before they get on their soapboxes. And conservatives who believed Cosby to walk on water might want to chime in at this point. Why the silence? Oh, they only got his back when it suits them.

If he was white, this would be big news. However, since he is not white everyone has to walk and talk carefully, or experience the trump card reserved for blacks when things are not going their way - the race card!

Racist!!!

That's the trump card, when they don't get a raise, don't get a mortgage, you name it.

White guy doesn't get that promotion, so what?

Black guy doesn't get it? Racist!!

Maybe Mr. Cosby is guilty. Maybe he is not. But if he is, and one of the girls he raped was your daughter, no matter the color, would you wait until he was found guilty?

Note that your question assumes that 'he raped...your daughter' thereby negating the notion of 'until he was found guilty'. If you already KNOW he raped your daughter then the legal process is immaterial to whatever stance/action you will take. If not then your premise, the very foundation of your sand castle, is false.

Make up your mind. Please note that in this particular case, nobody on these boards KNOWS anything about whether he in fact committed the alleged crime.

He's a celebrity not a Roman Catholic priest. He'll get a free pass on this.
