I have a strange feeling...that people are having sex...and it's not with me
I personally believe that he was a genuine serial rapist.

It's more how this all happened that seems 'off' to me. Why was this known but not cared about for so long? And now it just comes out of nowhere. And Cosby was one of the most powerful black men in the US. I've been toying with the idea that someone was sitting on this information and decided they needed to silence him for whatever reason. Seems like very many prominent black leaders in this country end up with tarnished reputations, or dead.

If there is a conspiracy, wouldn't "they" bring him down at the peak of his popularity? The only reason that it was brought to massive media attention was because Hannibal Burress referenced the handful of accusations that were largely ignored because, he at the time was still "America's dad". The public could not convince themselves that the kindly goofy black man who plays a doctor on TV (not to mention one of the only black doctors on TV at the time) was raping drugged women in his dressing room, and had been doing so for years. It was like with the Kevin Clash thing. We refused to believe such an innocent figure could commit horrible things.

That's the thing though, to me, that's a weak explanation, Hannibal Burress.

According to Patton Oswalt and Roseanne Barr, literally everyone in comedy circles has known about this forever. It was an open secret. And you had cases brought up against Cosby years and years before any of this, and nobody gave a poo poo.

Why did the media never run with any of this before? Why did none of these women come forward? It's all because some random comedian had a 30 second bit about it in one of his sets? How many people off the street would even know who Hannibal Burress was before this happened?
