Myles Posted June 15, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 15, 2017 No need to re hash what the case is about. I am curious why he is not getting the backing from the black population like OJ did. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taun Posted June 15, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 15, 2017 It's my understanding that many blacks considered him an "Uncle Tom", or an "Oreo" (black on the outside - white on the inside)... The few times he commented on "Black Issues" he spoke conservatively - not radically... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This far it looks like he still has a chance of avoiding the charges though. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True - however the multiple charges against him - and the type - make it difficult for me to listen to his old comedy routines now (which I often did)... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved that one! He goes through all the build up about his months long plan for revenge, gets his "victim" all set up - only to find out his mother had thrown it away! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paranormal Panther Posted June 17, 2017 #21 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I was a huge fan. Now, I can't watch him. I believe all or most of the claims made by his victims. I don't care about the man's good advice just as I don't care about the man's race. He drugged and raped women. That's close to Ted Bundy territory. His enablers are bad too. How many celebrities ignored his crimes? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's record-setting chutzpah. He said that in public while he preyed on women in private. It was like when Jimmy Swaggart preached against sexy clothes.

Sir Wearer of Hats Posted June 18, 2017 #24 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I was watching the post-trial footage and how Cosby was walking made me wonder if he was blind. He always had a firm hold of someone's arm and his eyes were all but closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a result of all the drugs he took over the years.......................................oh wait! sorry, he was not taking them, he was giving them to unsuspecting victims.
