Well...he's not completely wrong, just a complete piece of shit with a twist on it. This is a stereotype for a reason thanks to bitter skanks.
And I don't care what people say, I don't believe for a second Bill Cosby was guilty in any of these.
Really? Must be some sort of American attachment to Cosby, because never having known him, I never doubted his guilt for a moment.
It's a matter of character. You can tell Weinstein was a fucking pervert and degenerate by how he treated women, and people in general. Cosby has always been a bit of a prig when it comes to how people act and how they are supposed to behave, but never in that closet degenerate way of the uptight. He's been a conservative father figure his latter half of his career, but he started in the same clubs as Lenny Bruce and Joan Rivers. He was good friends with Joan Rivers and she never said anything bad about him, and that bitch went for the throat with everyone.
The secret recording of him trying to guilt-trip and shame a woman into having sex with him was basically all I needed to hear to convince me the dude was a predator.
Non-American news about America is notoriously slanted because of the global inferiority complex non-American countries have. They need America to look bad along with everyone and everything in it to make themselves feel better. It's quite sad.
That said, even American news was immediately on the Kill Cosby Express because it happened in the middle of metoo, the movement that was so hair triggered (if you'll excuse the pun) that it managed to annihilate the collective credibility of women in a couple years.
I really have no idea if it's true or not, because the American justice system is a complete joke and "guilt" is based entirely on your place on the progressive stack, who you're sided with, and who you know personally
Yes, I suspect that if the accusations happened now in the BLM era, the coverage would have been much different.
So you're an idiot who believed all women instead of looking at how the media went about assassinating his character and everything his character stood for (viz., RESPONSIBLE father figures, BLACKS TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR ACTIONS, promoting a nuclear family, moving away from drug/gang culture, promoting Conservative family values, etc.)?
I usually just ignore your comments and move on, but I absolutely abhor to the very core of my being people like you who enable the degenerate slide our society has taken by siding with people against the basic principles that keep society civil.
okay
Note this appeal isn't about the evidence. It's procedural on the prosecution doing their job wrong.
As I understand it, "doing their job wrong" in this case includes entering compelled testimony - compelled on the grounds that it would not be used in a prosecution, eliminating any 5th amendment barriers - and then promptly using this compelled testimony in a prosecution.
So yes, it is very much about evidence. It's also about a prosecutor discarding the civil rights of a suspect when inconvenient.
