Thanks for my chuckle for the day. Honestly you made me smile with your troll attempt.

The number of witnesses indicate guilt beyond any reasonable doubt.
Lol the number of accusers does not affect the statistical probability. You clearly don't know how statistics work. Please tell us that you are just joking and that you and Polly P are just boredom a Saturday.

When famous people get accused of something really bad, as long as there is even a little uncertainty of their guilt (and there doesn't need to be much), there are fans that are so loyal that they actually start rooting for the famous person even more than ever. This has happened with the following:
OJ Simpson - people actually celebrated him getting off despite pretty clear guilt
Michael Jackson - his real fans would not accept the pedophile charges, claiming victims were lying
Michael Vick - not so much deniers here, but his hardcore fans dismissed dogs and made every possible comparison with people who got lesser penalties from minor crimes against humans, as a support for Vick
Chris Brown - some of his fans actually blamed Rihanna
And all these people that cheer and support these accused people and besmirch the accuser - well a vast majority of them don't even know these famous people or their accusers, but since MJ's songs were good he must be innocent you know. And cause Cosby is funny and plays a nice guy on TV, well clearly then he can't be a rapist.

No troll here. I'm a professional statistician. You are in the wrong or trolling. Which is it?
They are conservative applauding him for his critiques of black people.

That's the thing about those that are passionate about their political ideology. Someone could be a rapist, but if that rapist shares their opinion on welfare or guns or abortion, they support the person. On the other hand, a person could be a war hero or something but if he expresses opinions not in line, they hate him.
No, that's not typically true.
Claims, not facts: drugged, raped or abused women
Facts: 50 years of contribution to the entertainment industry, opened doors for minorities in a racist country, saved NBC network in the 1980s
Only two standing ovations? What's wrong with people!
Without exception, each of the "victims" has admitted to being under of the influence of alcohol and drugs during the alleged rapes.

It has nothing to do with being famous. It is called supporting people when they are down and having their back. All of your examples are dumb expect the Michael Vick one.
You seem to think that just because someone is accused of something then they definitely did it. When you are famous, people (friends and enemies) start showing up out of nowhere wanting attention, money, or whatever else. Do you not believe in crazy people?
Assistant District Attorney Osdodk: Sir we have a witness claiming rape but I don't I don't know how reliable she is.District Attorney: Osdodk we have 13 witnesses claiming to have witnessed a rape.Assistant District Attorney Osdodk: Sir I got a A an college stats and thirteen witnesses are no better than one witness. It makes no difference sir.District Attorney: Osdodk you're an idiot, now go get me a coffee!

"You are comparing a multiple rapist to Obama?"
You're right, no reason to insult multiple rapists like that.
Lies, damn lies and stats

Unlike all 4 of these boobs, Bill Cosby actually has many redeeming qualities, that enable people to root for him or even give him the benefit of doubt: Lifelong commitment to early education, promoting positive images of African Americans, and he is hugely philanthropic.
I don't think anyone was surprised by the personal conduct of Jackson, Vick or Brown; OJ killing people was pretty shocking.
