Default Bill Cosby

What do you think about his situation so late in his life?


Being a fan of his for so many years and one of the few celebrities I've taken interest in it's obviously quite awful.



I'm sure most here now he was famous long before he was Cliff Huxtable and for most of his career he has been an advocate for many good things and inspite he's never been convicted of any of that stuff he's been accused of with he probably has done a lot of it and has probably ruined his reputation.


I don't put Bill or anyone else on a pedestal and I've come to realize through the years there's too many famous people are just troubled but for years he seemed to have been above all that.

It's just something isn't it?

Default Re: Bill Cosby

Touhy ,I deal with Cosby's situation like I deal with all celebrity legal 'problems' of this level.

I do not make any opinions on either side of the issue. Reason being ,I don't
know these people personally and therefore ,it's not my place to say anything about it.

Way too many people take a thought/opinion that they get in their head about something like this and have the gall to say "I KNOW he's guilty". Like it's a fact & they're judge,jury & executoner all in one.

If Cosby 'did' do these things ,it's between him ,his family & closest friends and the women claiming to be victims. Those of us who grew up with Cosby on TV ,well I can only say if he's proven 100% guilty I'll be dissapointed but ,I'll just have to rememebr him as I did from age 4 to early adulthood.

He was one of many in the 1970s ,on PBS & Sat. Morn. TV ,that taught me a lot of useful things in life. All those things he taught are true and factual and in part ,made me who I am today. (A lot of credit goes to a lot of people to be sure.)

If he's proven innocent 100% ,then the women in question are ganging up on a man with $$$ and just wasting taxpayers' money ,in an effort of ill gotten gains through the court system.

..but in short ,it's his problem and only he knows the truth & if actually
guilty & found so ,the one who has to live with it.


We've all got our own lives to deal with.
