We have no idea if the allegations are true. 15 women! Come on, I mean, it's 15 women so it's gotta be true, right? No. It doesn't. But I have to admit that the higher the number, the more weight these allegations carry in my mind. I guess it shouldn't.
Always liked Cosby. I like his comedy, I liked Fat Albert growing up and I think that he's a good actor.
If he drugged and raped women, I hope he spends the rest of his life in jail. But, why have most of these women waited so long?
I don't know a lot about the cases. So, I'm left with an image of a guy that I've respected for most of my life that is tainted because he can't prove that he didn't. That's a sad fact of life.
Reminds me of the gay racist that used to be on the x, who I stood up for but others refused to accept.

The Modesto Bee reports Cosby was greeted warmly and left with a standing ovation at Turlock Community Theatre. Only one protester showed up to Cosby's comedy tour stop in the Central California city.
"It's sad. I am very disappointed there aren't more people. But someone has to stand up so I came," said Suzette Sims, 51, who came with a sign that read "I Believe The Women."

"He hasn't been found guilty of anything and this is still America," said Wayne Stanfield, 45, who attended Sunday's show.
Cosby performed in Colorado earlier in the weekend, where he was warmly welcomed to the stage but also attracted protesters. In Denver, some 100 people chanted "Rape is not a joke!" and "No means no!" outside the theater. And at a packed show in Pueblo Friday, about 25 demonstrators gathered outside, chanting "No means no" and "Colorado believes the women."
Before the shows, Cosby released a statement thanking his fans and saying he's ready to perform in Colorado.
"I have thousands of loyal, patient and courageous fans that are going to leave their homes to enjoy an evening of laughter and return home feeling wonderful," he said.
