That's not the same as "FF until proven HP".

He's basically proven guilty by now, TBH.

I'm actually surprised that FF isn't getting more votes on this heavily-male forum.

Anyway, Cosby is a literal HP.

Regardless of our personal beliefs, every person in this nation is entitled to a fair trial, and until they are convicted, we have to assume that they are innocent, no matter the evidence.

So if if a serial killer gets acquitted at trial, but later solid evidence is uncovered on his guilt, and he even admits it, the public isn't supposed to hate him just because he wasn't convicted in court?  

That reasoning is ridiculous.  People rightfully hate people like Bill Cosby and George Zimmerman, even if they aren't legally convicted.

I understand, but until he is proven guilty, I will stay neutral. We can't just go around judging people because we believe that they've done a horrible thing.

You forgot OJ Simpson. He's just as bad as those two, possibly worse.

Um WTF? No we don't. "Innocent until proven guilty" is a standard that applies to juries in deciding whether to convict someone. Private individuals are NOT bound to use that standard in deciding whether they personally believe someone committed a crime.

I can separate the work from the person, but I can't have a positive opinion of a person who is almost certainly a serial rapist.

Generally I'm of the "innocent until proven guilty" opinion regarding this sort of thing (even regarding my opinion) but I think it's pretty clear that he's guilty at this point. HP.
