Never again will Middle Schoolers have to suffer through the "Poundcake Speech" again in 7th grade English class. Thank God.

Could you imagine any other person being accused of these horrific acts and taking this long to get charged? Insane.

They were largely alleged to have happened long enough ago that the statue of limitations has expired.

I'm still surprised that BRTD never made a poll along the lines of "What would opebo have said about the allegations against Bill Cosby?"

Quite a lot of other "celebrities" tbh. I mean Polanski won an Oscar after we all knew he raped a 13 year old, for one.

In this case they were about to expire, and thanks to the new DA there, who has a set of stones, she charged him just before it did expire.

Now if she can convict Kathleen Kane, she'd be a hero in this Commonwealth.

Way to go Cosby, after being critical of black males not being fathers, you fall into same trap, criminal justice, that most adult black males fall into, crime.

These charges are politically motivated. This is a left wing/intersectionalist smear campaign trying to take a leadership figure down once again, and in doing so discredit all black men who promote normative morality. By painting Cosby as a transgressor, a "victim blamer" who traded in "respectability politics", they seek to make normative morality transgressive, and thus hoist their ethnicised form of "Black" moral relativism, condoning single motherhood, gang activity, drug usage, crude language, disrespect for authority, etc.

Am I in denial? You bet.

Not to take sides on this matter, but I was absolutely shocked to see someone post on Facebook that this was a conspiracy to take down a black man for daring to help the black community. Is that a legitimate thing? Because I swear this girl was an apolitical normal person.
