Well, not surprised. It's sad but predictable.

Rapist Bill 

I'm telling you- a bag of hair. 

sparky, why do you have to go on every thread and dump on it? 

Sifi, I'll be surprised if he makes it 3 years in prison. That's probably what the judge was thinking. 

He's old. 3 years is a long time at his age. But you are right. It seems unfair after a guilty verdict. 

Especially since he could have gotten 10 years. Gets 2.5. Well all the drugging and raping was done when he was young and vital. Now he's old and useless so he played it right. Wait til you're an old man and then get caught so people don't feel you're a threat.

What a puke 

I'm reading the sentence hasn't been announced yet- 

Breakiing News- Cosby's declared a violent sexual offender- still no sentence- but it's not looking good for him! 

Any man who has to get a woman stoned or drunk to get some isn't much of a man. A man should want the woman to remember the romp fondly and want to come back for more. If he can't achieve that, well he's not doing his job as a man. 

I think this is their way of making up for not giving him the max punishment. He IS a violent sex offender after all.

Notice Camille has finally ditched him.

As for Mark, you?ve been asked NOT to spam threads with your political dribble on subjects NOT related, in an attempt to refuse refuge to those of us creating and conversing on non political threads, it?s a nuisance, period. 

Can you suspend a persons ability to post memes? 

Bob, he wasn?t offering alcohol in an attempt to get them tIpsy, he DRUGGED them and then asssaulted them sexually.

You can?t put that in the same category as anything consensual. 

he DRUGGED them and then asssilyed them sexually.

I know, that's why I said stoned because I thought stoned meant the use of drugs. 

Memes are fine but normal people don?t use them as a tool to be a nuisance. 

I guess I think of getting stoned to be a choice. LOL 

normal people

That's the operative phrase. 

Better than the inane nonsense he spouts. 

3 to 10 years! 

Might as well be a death sentence at his age and with his health conditions. Judge said he wouldn't give him special treatment just because of who he is. 

And yet, a small, very small, price to pay for what he's done. 

This is outrageous. 

Had these woman come forward earlier perhaps a predator could've been stopped. 

I'm sure they were afraid no one would believe them about America's favorite father. 

"Had these woman come forward earlier perhaps a predator could've been stopped."


Yes, BUT when they do, it's a circus, isnt it? you are over looking the entire dynamic that drives the vast majority of these cases. Power. There are jobs and livelihoods at stake. A woman with no power going up against a rich, powerful and well known man?? These men, Like Cosby and Weinstein, Matt Lauer, Charlie Rose, Roger Ailes and the like all could make or break a career, ruin reputations and make sure there was hell to pay. That's why. And why they do it. They aren't afraid of some underling woman..
Even you keep saying they're attracted to power so they should expect problems...what they have coming for being attracted to them. As if we should expect all men in this position to be predatory. As if that is to be expected when you get involved with a powerful man. He might ruin your life if you reject him.


Soooo, if you accuse him, you could just be gunning for him, his word against yours...you're trying to ruin a guy. if you don't, you're to blame for letting his predatory inclinations live on. Clearly, you can't win. 

"Earlier" women knew how things would turn out in court when they made the attempt to prosecute the rapist. The court would strip them of all dignity, belittle them, call them "sluts", comment on the prom dress they wore, how many serious boyfriends they had vs one night stands. Eventually it would be proven she'd asked for it and it was all her fault because she wore high heels.

Congratulations to these women and the courage and risk it took to come forward. Congratulations to the Judge who looked beyond the victim, and towards the behavior and lack thereof the Defendant.

Obviously not. This woman managed to get him prosecuted and convicted.

Unfortunately that's true with SOME men in powerful positions. However, lets no forget that women do this too. They make up allegations that can't be corroborated because a man rejected them.

You are aware that does not happen in the vast majority of cases.

What does happen is that a woman makes an allegation without any corroborative evidence and expects to be believed. Who knows what her motivation for doing is. Perhaps its revenge for being rejected. The very process that a man has to use to defend himself from these baseless claims can also ruin his career and family. 

100% tone deaf. 

There were many woman who said he had done this through the years. I really believe if this had happened 10 years ago, he would have walked. If he is guilty, ten years isn?t enough, but the metoo has a lot to do with him going to jail.

You took my statement totally out of context. I said. "Earlier, women knew..." as in back 15-20 years when it first happened. I believe one of the reasons this case was successful is because of changes in modern societal views on rape in the judicial system. Hence, that is partly why she was successful. 

You're right, I did take it out of context.

I believe it has more to do with evidence.
