BREAKING: Verdict reached in Cosby trial....GUILTY...ON 3 COUNTS

They were gonna get him
It was an opportunity to destroy an icon
He didn't help himself by even having this as a possibility it could be true

Just sit back and watch as they only judge and condemn black people tho.
 

Hold up. WTF? I got 2 minutes into this thing (trying to give the man a chance to make his point) and dude attempts to support his thesis by saying the Dred Scott decision was about Dred Scott "fighting for the equal right to sit on a train with white people"???? Has this guy ever read the Dred Scott decision, or even looked it up online? The Dred Scott case was about Dred and his wife Harriet suing the heirs of their deceased owner asking to be declared free because their owner had taken them to live in a free state and a free territory.

It irritates me when someone acts as if they think I am too dumb or too lazy to look up the claims they make as the basis of their argument.

Note: I know that I'm ignoring the rambling non sequitur that comprises the rest of his argument. It's just that this one thing particularly annoys me.

Bill Cosby’s Honorary Degree Is Rescinded by Temple University

Temple University announced Friday that in light of Bill Cosby’s conviction on sexual assault charges, the institution would be rescinding the honorary degree it bestowed upon him in 1991.



A brief statement on the university’s website said:

In 1991, based on his career achievements, Temple awarded an honorary degree to William Cosby.

Yesterday, Dr. Cosby was found guilty by a jury of the felony of aggravated sexual assault.

Today the Temple University Board of Trustees has accepted the recommendation of the University to rescind the honorary degree.

A jury Thursday found Cosby guilty of aggravated indecent assault. He was convicted of drugging and sexually assaulting former Temple University employee Andrea Constand in 2004. During the trial, five other women testified to similar incidents of being drugged and sexually assaulted by Cosby.

Cosby faces up to 30 years—10 years for each count—in prison, as well as a $25,000 fine on each count.

Life comes at you at a speedy pace.

Cosby Barked Like a Dog in Court Today

The sequestered jury in Bill Cosby’s sexual-assault retrial, now on day two of deliberations, got some good news today. Judge Steven O’Neill announced that jurors will have the opportunity to visit with an emotional therapy dog later this afternoon. The dog, which works in the courthouse, will provide the jurors some much-needed relief as they head into a dozen-plus hours of deliberations to decide the fate of the 80-year-old entertainer.

In rare comedic form, Cosby surprised everyone in the courtroom when he stood up at the defense table to mimic a barking dog after the judge made this lighthearted announcement.

It wasn’t the first strange turn of events during the retrial of the comedian at the Montgomery County Courthouse near Philly. On the first day, a topless protester stormed the barricades on the courthouse steps and was subsequently arrested, and just last evening Cosby’s defense attorney was caught taking a catnap.

The defense has rested its case and now Cosby awaits a verdict from the jury.
 
Too bad he can't get the conviction overturned..then again if that happened all his accusers would be on suicide watch lol
 
It reminds me of Michael Jackson, white doctor put him on that milk shit, than the black doctor is brought in to take the fall. Here coon ass Cosby went with a white attorney to defend him against allegations made by another white person. A black attorney was brought in to hide the fact that he was poorly represented and to take the fall.

He did not get a settlement before doing the deposition or plead the fifth. The prosecutor promised that he would not pursue criminal charges if he was candid in the Civil trial.



Even OJ brought a black attorney in, otherwise he would be sitting in prison.
 
I hope you all are taking notes as to the severity of this conviction.
I don't know what happened with Bill and any of those women. Did he give them drugs? Yes. He said so. Did he fuck them? Probably a few of them. While I'm hard pressed to believe any of them were unlikely participants in the situations, (they knew exactly who he was and that he was married), the problem lies in HOW he was convicted.
Its been years. None of them had any real evidence. He was convicted on their words alone.
That should be disturbing as hell to all of you.
Think about any time you have been on an elevator alone with a woman. Passed by and bumped into a woman in a club or on the street. Think about any time you have told a woman she looks hot, sexy, cute or fine in an outfit. Think about any time you got hot and heavy with a chick and she backed off and you complied.
Now imagine ALL of those women returning to sue you ten+ years from now. What could you do?
You gotta be careful, fellas. These hoes are out for blood. Many women look for an unfair advantage while all the while claiming that they are every bit as good as men in every way. Given the opportunity, a lot of them will drop the victim card on your ass in a second if it means a payday or a come-up for them.
 
:rolleyes: Allred got a standing ovation at the Daytime Emmy Awards when she was a presenter i heard..said"I'm proud to announce that Bill Cosby is GUILTY!!!" or something like that
 
Keep it real aint no male athletes or celebs fucking a bunch of sea hags. Ask yourself this, if you were rich would any of these hoes be in your starting lineup? How about your bench? Not even your practice squad.

Saw this in a thread on ASR forum..

Forget the police reports right, 2 dozen women (because as Sky pointed out, most of these women arent claiming to have been drugged) over 3 decades get drugged and raped.

Ik it's Bill Cosby, he's rich and powerful, he gave you a drink next thing you know you wake up and your knickers are inside out.

You think: "No one will ever believe me, this is Bill Cosby", so you dont go to police but you're 100% certain this fucker put some shit in your drink and had his way with you.

Out of two dozen women over 3 decades, not ONE, not ONE goes to a doctor after the encouter?

Not ONE? Nobody went to the hospital and was like "Yo doc, I think someone may have given me something, can you test me to see if something is in my system"?

24 Women, ALL drugged and fondled or penetrated etc.


Not ONE toxicology report?
 


She said that not all accusers are "truthful," pointing to white women who have accused black men -- such as Emmett Till -- of crimes they did not commit.

I hope it was her PR people that said this stupid shit and not her.

Cosby accuser’s family ‘despises black people’ & used Cosby for revenge on ‘all black people’

Andrea’s mother hates black men,” Robert Russell, a close friend of the Constand family told YC during an exclusive interview in a suburban hotel outside of Philadelphia.

Andrea Constand is the lone Cosby accuser who brought criminal charges charges against the comedian for an alleged assault that occurred nearly 18 years ago.

“What they have done is disgraceful,” Russell told us. “I’ll never forget when she told me she’d like to see all ******* gathered together and killed. That is genocide. She spoke like Adolf Hitler. I realized what I was getting involved in and got out of it like a bat out of hell. That family was dark and I don’t want anything to do with them.”

“She despised black people — she didn’t want any black men or women in her house.” Russell sat down with our investigative team and provided the testimony Judge Steven T. O’Neill barred after Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele thought it would impact jurors by painting a negative picture of Andrea Constand and her background, who alleges Bill Cosby drugged and sexually assaulted her in his Cheltenham home nearly 18 years ago.

Not one bit of sexual assault is tolerable. Bill Cosby is definitely not proud of some of the things that happened during his marriage but does that add up to sexual assault?

Bruce Castor opened an investigation on Bill Cosby for reports of a powerful black man sexually assaulting a white woman. After a lengthy investigation, he found Constand wasn’t credible given her extreme contradictions on what happened, when it happened and why it happened.

The prosecution entrusted this case on a family, who according to our source, made it clear they ‘despised black men’ and ‘wanted revenge on black people’ after their daughter lost her boyfriend to a black woman. “She didn’t like that,” Russel told us, referring to Gianna Constand, Andrea’s mother. “She [Andrea] would do anything to please her parents.” Constand allegedly had a brief relationship with NBA star Steve Nash which was cut short after he was photographed with a black woman, who Andrea’s mother referred to as a ‘bimbo’ compared to her daughter.

Kevin Steele spoke about 2015 but he missed the whole point. Something interesting happened in 2015.

2015 Timeline & How It Ties In
Kevin Steele was running for district attorney against Bruce Castor. Steele reached out to the Constand family through their attorney, Dolores Troiani and reopened the criminal investigation against Bill Cosby, an opportunity to make national headlines and likely boost his publicity locally.

2015: Cosby Files Go Missing
Steele reached out to the Constand family through their civil attorney who filed a $3.4 million lawsuit against Cosby, Dolores Troiani asking if he could have a copy of the Bill Cosby file with the intention of reopening the investigation. Steele and Troiani met in July 2015, just a few months before the Constand’s would file a civil suit against Steele’s competitor, Bruce Castor. “So, basically, what they took was their own file back. I believe I gave them the depositions. I don’t think – I gave them some investigative things that we had done,” Troiani testified in federal court. “I did not keep a log of what I gave them, but, basically, it was my impression that what had occurred was that the – their police reports were not in the possession of the D.A. from ten years ago.”

2015: Criminal Investigation Reopened
After Steele met with Troiani and obtained ten boxes of documents, including the original police reports from the Constands and Cosby, he reopened the investigation, according to federal court documents obtained by YC. “After discussions between you and your client and then First Assistant District Attorney Kevin R. Steele, we have now reopened the investigation,” an official letter from the Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office addressed to Troiani states.

2015: ‘A Hardened Racist Orchestrated This Whole Thing’
Andrea’s mother, according to our source, wasn’t pleased with the decision not to prosecute Cosby because she’s ‘a hardened racist.’ Gianna Constand told Russel in 2001 after Steve Nash was photographed with a black woman ‘look at this bimbo’ enraged that Nash chose her over Andrea. From his time spent at the Constand household, at times staying over for several nights at a time, he said he believes her mother ‘orchestrated’ the entire thing as “Andrea didn’t have the intelligence to do this on her own.”

2015: One Hand Washes the Other
Just as Steele vowed to reopen the investigation, the Constands filed a federal lawsuit days before the election ended, dropping a bomb on Bruce Castor’s campaign — painting him as an incompetent district attorney who refused to prosecute Bill Cosby. Steele used that to his advantage and received $164,783.00 for television ads criticizing Bruce Castor. The ads were miraculously produced, edited and distributed to several television networks in under 5 days. “It isn’t possible for someone to create such a commercial, edit it, cut clips, film it and distribute it in a time period like that,” a former reality television producer from Magical Elves, an Emmy Award winning production company behind acclaimed hits such as Cold Justice, Project Greenlight, Time of Death, Top Chef and many more. “Something like that takes weeks! You have to budget it, film it, edit it and negotiate airtime deals with networks. No way you could do that in a week or even two weeks.” Did Steele work with Gianna Constand, Andrea Constand and their civil lawyer to use Cosby as a campaign tactic? That’s up to the public to figure out, but it isn’t physically possible to run ads with a few day notice. The same day the suit was filed, Steele’s ad-spending for television commercials went up 171.1%.

Steele, days after communicating with the Constands through their attorney in 2015 received nearly $200k in his campaign fund from his brother in Florida.

2015: What does this have to do with Cosby and his charges?
Though when all said and done, one could reasonably assume that Steele worked alongside the Constand family with the civil suit against Castor — whether he was directly or indirectly involved, there is no evidence to prove that. However, Steele likely won the election based on the negative publicity Castor received following the federal lawsuit days before residents cast their votes and in return, charges were filed against Cosby. If Constand lost her lawsuit against Castor, the counter-suit from Castor and violated the confidentiality agreement, she would be left with a mountain of financial woes if Cosby was found not guilty as she would lose both suits with former district attorney Bruce Castor and would likely have to return the $3.4 million for violating the confidentiality agreement. The stakes were high.

Okay, this is just one woman. What about the other accusers?
The question many people have posed and will continue to pose. Sure, Andrea Constand is just one of dozens of accusers who allege Bill Cosby either sexually assaulted, molested or raped them. However, Andrea Constand and her mother are the only two who faced the comedian in criminal court. If you take Andrea Constand out of the picture, Bill Cosby wouldn’t be on trial. If Andrea Constand and the Constand family are found to be liars and ‘hardened racists’ who are using Bill Cosby for a personal vendetta, it would force the either the Superior Court or Supreme Court to reconsider the criminal trial and the outcome. The trial against Bill Cosby was based solely on eyewitness testimony and speculation — out of those who testified, higher courts will only consider the Commonwealth’s key witness and accuser, Andrea and Gianna Constand. Their decision would be based on testimony that many would question their faith in if Robert Russell, the close family friend was permitted to testify.

If Cosby did assault other women, that would be a separate issue and it would be dealt with in other courts — but this trial, conviction and his fate rests on the testimony of Andrea and Gianna Constand.

Gianna Constand: ‘Personification of Evil’ & ‘Hardened Racist’
“You have a lying mother, the personification of evil who likely urged her daughter to file charges after her parents saw Andrea gained nothing out of the relationship with Bill Cosby.” Russell told us.

Gianna Constand’s Vow to Breakup An Interracial Relationship
“She said if she ever saw her daughter in an interracial relationship she would stop her and if she couldn’t, she’d make something up.” Referring to Gianna Constand, the mother of Andrea. “It all goes back to her very first boyfriend. Her mother put all her hopes in Steve Nash — her mother was devastated when that photo came out with him and a black woman.” Russell told us.

If jurors lost their trust in Constand, the prosecution would’ve likely lost the case as her testimony was the only one permitted to be considered evidence.

“Don’t be fooled,” Russel told us. “Gianna Constand isn’t just ‘Andrea’s mother,’ she represents the the entire Montgomery County District Attorneys Office & Judge O’Neill” as they barred any testimony that would’ve hurt her reputation to jurors, including her hatred and anger towards black people. “This all goes back to her first boyfriend. Hands down.”

Brittany-Richardson-Steve-Nash-girlfriend-2013.jpg

The defining moment of the trial revolved around the jurors believing Constand was a holistic person from a welcoming family — something that would’ve been refuted if Robert Russell were able to testify to his past with the family. When asked if he believed Constand would lie to please her mother, Russel told us “absolutely. She would do anything to please her parents.”

‘Convicting a powerful black man.’
Steele’s entire campaign was based on convicting Bill Cosby & Andrea Constand’s mother’s entire motive behind the case was about ‘convicting a powerful black man,’ even if it involved wrongfully convicting a man to save face.

By forbidding such testimony from the ears of the jury, Montgomery County opened it’s doors and allowed a ‘racist, evil, dangerous’ and ‘scary’ family into their courtroom for what Russell believed was “part of a plan to get revenge on black people, and they succeeded.” The prosecution was accused of giving a racial remark in the corridors of the courthouse during jury selection — stating that he was “tired of this black shit,” a source who was in the courthouse each day of the trial told us she overheard it. Reporter Stacy Brown also tweeted about the alleged incident, which was one of two incidents regarding racial discrimination throughout the trial. The second included the defense’s claim that the prosecutors argued two black jurors would be sufficient for Cosby’s trial.

“When I saw all of this I said to myself: that’s a lie, that’s a lie, that’s a lie.” Russell said, speaking about when he first saw Bill Cosby was charged for sexually assaulted Andrea Constand.”I know what that family is capable of doing. It doesn’t surprise me. It’s like, this is, I don’t know how else to say it .. she pulled it off. All I can say is that family has the capability of doing that stuff. I saw how her mother was setting Andrea up to get exactly what Andrea’s mother wanted. Money and revenge.” Russell continued. “Every time I look at the pictures when she’s walking in the court she has that smile, she has that smirk. Man if I was raped and I was coming to court I would not have a smile on my face. She’s walking. She’s gloating. She knows exactly what she’s doing. Andrea Constand …” Russell paused. “I don’t want to be in her life. I don’t want her to be anywhere close to me.”

If jurors didn’t trust Constand or Steele, there would be nothing left as no evidence was provided to back her allegations. Jurors relied solely on Andrea Constand’s account of what happened and the prosecution’s statements.

When Steele read Russell’s statement, he knew that testimony like that would stir too much controversy inside that would result in a major implication in the courtroom and outside of it. “Three criminal charges, promised during an unethical campaign for the district attorney’s office, were filed against my husband…” Camille Cosby wrote in a statement earlier this week. “All based on what I believe to be a falsified account by the newly elected district attorney’s key witness. I firmly believe her recent testimony during trial was perjured; as was shown at trial, it was unsupported by any evidence and riddled with innumerable, dishonest contradictions.”

“This is wrong.” Russel said. “Bill Cosby was entitled to an acquittal. I can’t speak for any of the other accusers, but when it comes to Andrea Constand, I could’ve showed them who she really was.”

Gianna Constand, Andrea Constand’s Mother, “Coached Her”
“I think Gianna was sitting back, accumulating information taking notes after notes after notes in order to accomplish one goal.” Russell said. “I think Andrea’s mother always went back to Andrea’s first boyfriend, Steve Nash. She carried that bitterness, that hate, towards a black man. This was her opportunity to rebel against a black man. I think that’s what she did – and when she saw it was time to put a hook in Bill Cosby, I think that Andrea’s mother, coached her in how to put a hook in him.”

“Her knowing Bill Cosby, it was time for evil and good to fight one another.”

When asked why Andrea would take any pills — which experts testified were Benadryl, Russell replied: “The only thing I could think of, she’s planning. She has a plan to tear someone apart. Andrea would not take anything in her mouth if she doesn’t know exactly what it is. It’s just not her way. Even if her own mother gave her a pill, she wouldn’t take it without examining it and identifying what it was.”

Discussing Andrea & Gianna Constand’s Testimony
As the interview slowly ended, our team got on the topic of the testimonies provided by the Constand family which included Andrea, Gianna and Andrea’s brother-in-law Stewart Parsons.

“Andrea testified that she had breakfast at the home following the assault because she didn’t want to be rude,” our reporter asked Robert Russell. “Does that sound like something Andrea would do?”

“Personally, Andrea would put on the boxing gloves and beat you up. If she doesn’t like something, she doesn’t let anything slide.” Russel said. “She has that very aggressive attitude to things she doesn’t like and how I know that is because I’ve seen that attitude fly. Someone asked her ‘do you have a smoke?’ Andrea looked at the guy and said ‘do I look like a person that smokes?'”

Andrea Constand Taught Me What A Home-Wrecker Was
Andrea was questioned by Tom Mesereau during her testimony about why she didn’t ever inquire about Bill Cosby’s wife — whether it be where she was, if she thought getting in a married man’s bed at a hotel and giving him gifts that included bath salts and incense was appropriate. On the contrary, Bill Cosby also gave Constand gifts ranging from perfume to cashmere sweaters. Both men and women could agree exchanging gifts is common in a love affair, whether it be short-term or long-term.

“Bill Cosby is a married man who the defense argued had an affair with Andrea Constand. After a series of questions Tom Mesereau asked Andrea under oath about Bill Cosby’s wife, Camille Cosby, Andrea told Mesereau it was none of her business to ask about Camille, stating she never saw her, asked where she was or cared to inquire about her. She also brought him gifts, one of which was bath salts. Would she bring him bath salts and incense without an expectation of getting something in return?”

“I would take that as a romantic activity is about to happen.” Russell told us. “When I heard that, the first thing that came to my mind is when Andrea pointed out something to me down on Yonge Street when were walking & she said ‘you see that person there?’ I said ‘yeah.’ Tt was a woman — Andrea said ‘she’s a home wrecker.’ I said ‘a home wrecker?'” Russell continued. “She said ‘yeah, this is a person who breaks up a home.’ She knows how to break up a home. I think she made that attempt with Bill Cosby.”

Gianna Constand: ‘Personification of Evil’ & ‘Hardened Racist’
“You have a lying mother, the personification of evil who likely urged her daughter to file charges after her parents saw Andrea gained nothing out of the relationship with Bill Cosby.” Russell told us.

Gianna Constand’s Vow to Breakup An Interracial Relationship
“She said if she ever saw her daughter in an interracial relationship she would stop her and if she couldn’t, she’d make something up.” Referring to Gianna Constand, the mother of Andrea. “It all goes back to her very first boyfriend. Her mother put all her hopes in Steve Nash — her mother was devastated when that photo came out with him and a black woman.” Russell told us.

If jurors lost their trust in Constand, the prosecution would’ve likely lost the case as her testimony was the only one permitted to be considered evidence.

“Don’t be fooled,” Russel told us. “Gianna Constand isn’t just ‘Andrea’s mother,’ she represents the the entire Montgomery County District Attorneys Office & Judge O’Neill” as they barred any testimony that would’ve hurt her reputation to jurors, including her hatred and anger towards black people. “This all goes back to her first boyfriend. Hands down.”

The defining moment of the trial revolved around the jurors believing Constand was a holistic person from a welcoming family — something that would’ve been refuted if Robert Russell were able to testify to his past with the family. When asked if he believed Constand would lie to please her mother, Russel told us “absolutely. She would do anything to please her parents.”

‘Convicting a powerful black man.’
Steele’s entire campaign was based on convicting Bill Cosby & Andrea Constand’s mother’s entire motive behind the case was about ‘convicting a powerful black man,’ even if it involved wrongfully convicting a man to save face.

By forbidding such testimony from the ears of the jury, Montgomery County opened it’s doors and allowed a ‘racist, evil, dangerous’ and ‘scary’ family into their courtroom for what Russell believed was “part of a plan to get revenge on black people, and they succeeded.” The prosecution was accused of giving a racial remark in the corridors of the courthouse during jury selection — stating that he was “tired of this black shit,” a source who was in the courthouse each day of the trial told us she overheard it. Reporter Stacy Brown also tweeted about the alleged incident, which was one of two incidents regarding racial discrimination throughout the trial. The second included the defense’s claim that the prosecutors argued two black jurors would be sufficient for Cosby’s trial.

are you listening 20-something year-old Black juror? You were considered a token by the very people you sided with.
Also, another Assistant District Attorney, Stuart Ryan, said he was “tired of this Black [expletive].”

“When I saw all of this I said to myself: that’s a lie, that’s a lie, that’s a lie.” Russell said, speaking about when he first saw Bill Cosby was charged for sexually assaulted Andrea Constand.”I know what that family is capable of doing. It doesn’t surprise me. It’s like, this is, I don’t know how else to say it .. she pulled it off. All I can say is that family has the capability of doing that stuff. I saw how her mother was setting Andrea up to get exactly what Andrea’s mother wanted. Money and revenge.” Russell continued. “Every time I look at the pictures when she’s walking in the court she has that smile, she has that smirk. Man if I was raped and I was coming to court I would not have a smile on my face. She’s walking. She’s gloating. She knows exactly what she’s doing. Andrea Constand …” Russell paused. “I don’t want to be in her life. I don’t want her to be anywhere close to me.”

If jurors didn’t trust Constand or Steele, there would be nothing left as no evidence was provided to back her allegations. Jurors relied solely on Andrea Constand’s account of what happened and the prosecution’s statements.

When Steele read Russell’s statement, he knew that testimony like that would stir too much controversy inside that would result in a major implication in the courtroom and outside of it. “Three criminal charges, promised during an unethical campaign for the district attorney’s office, were filed against my husband…” Camille Cosby wrote in a statement earlier this week. “All based on what I believe to be a falsified account by the newly elected district attorney’s key witness. I firmly believe her recent testimony during trial was perjured; as was shown at trial, it was unsupported by any evidence and riddled with innumerable, dishonest contradictions.”

“This is wrong.” Russel said. “Bill Cosby was entitled to an acquittal. I can’t speak for any of the other accusers, but when it comes to Andrea Constand, I could’ve showed them who she really was.”

Gianna Constand, Andrea Constand’s Mother, “Coached Her”
“I think Gianna was sitting back, accumulating information taking notes after notes after notes in order to accomplish one goal.” Russell said. “I think Andrea’s mother always went back to Andrea’s first boyfriend, Steve Nash. She carried that bitterness, that hate, towards a black man. This was her opportunity to rebel against a black man. I think that’s what she did – and when she saw it was time to put a hook in Bill Cosby, I think that Andrea’s mother, coached her in how to put a hook in him.”

“Her knowing Bill Cosby, it was time for evil and good to fight one another.”

When asked why Andrea would take any pills — which experts testified were Benadryl, Russell replied: “The only thing I could think of, she’s planning. She has a plan to tear someone apart. Andrea would not take anything in her mouth if she doesn’t know exactly what it is. It’s just not her way. Even if her own mother gave her a pill, she wouldn’t take it without examining it and identifying what it was.”

Discussing Andrea & Gianna Constand’s Testimony
As the interview slowly ended, our team got on the topic of the testimonies provided by the Constand family which included Andrea, Gianna and Andrea’s brother-in-law Stewart Parsons.

“Andrea testified that she had breakfast at the home following the assault because she didn’t want to be rude,” our reporter asked Robert Russell. “Does that sound like something Andrea would do?”

“Personally, Andrea would put on the boxing gloves and beat you up. If she doesn’t like something, she doesn’t let anything slide.” Russel said. “She has that very aggressive attitude to things she doesn’t like and how I know that is because I’ve seen that attitude fly. Someone asked her ‘do you have a smoke?’ Andrea looked at the guy and said ‘do I look like a person that smokes?'”

Andrea Constand Taught Me What A Home-Wrecker Was
Andrea was questioned by Tom Mesereau during her testimony about why she didn’t ever inquire about Bill Cosby’s wife — whether it be where she was, if she thought getting in a married man’s bed at a hotel and giving him gifts that included bath salts and incense was appropriate. On the contrary, Bill Cosby also gave Constand gifts ranging from perfume to cashmere sweaters. Both men and women could agree exchanging gifts is common in a love affair, whether it be short-term or long-term.

“Bill Cosby is a married man who the defense argued had an affair with Andrea Constand. After a series of questions Tom Mesereau asked Andrea under oath about Bill Cosby’s wife, Camille Cosby, Andrea told Mesereau it was none of her business to ask about Camille, stating she never saw her, asked where she was or cared to inquire about her. She also brought him gifts, one of which was bath salts. Would she bring him bath salts and incense without an expectation of getting something in return?”

“I would take that as a romantic activity is about to happen.” Russell told us. “When I heard that, the first thing that came to my mind is when Andrea pointed out something to me down on Yonge Street when were walking & she said ‘you see that person there?’ I said ‘yeah.’ Tt was a woman — Andrea said ‘she’s a home wrecker.’ I said ‘a home wrecker?'” Russell continued. “She said ‘yeah, this is a person who breaks up a home.’ She knows how to break up a home. I think she made that attempt with Bill Cosby.”

:idea:
Yet he still chased that.
 
Hold up. WTF? I got 2 minutes into this thing (trying to give the man a chance to make his point) and dude attempts to support his thesis by saying the Dred Scott decision was about Dred Scott "fighting for the equal right to sit on a train with white people"???? Has this guy ever read the Dred Scott decision, or even looked it up online? The Dred Scott case was about Dred and his wife Harriet suing the heirs of their deceased owner asking to be declared free because their owner had taken them to live in a free state and a free territory.

It irritates me when someone acts as if they think I am too dumb or too lazy to look up the claims they make as the basis of their argument.

Note: I know that I'm ignoring the rambling non sequitur that comprises the rest of his argument. It's just that this one thing particularly annoys me.

This is OUR YoungBloods today.
Many of them follow Kanye logic and just don't READ!!!

I've run into way too many young cats like this these days.
Especially when its OUR history at stake.
I've just about given up.
