I just don't know either way. The woman who testified against him was doing quaaludes, a drug that's difficult to get and highly sought after by some, with Bill Cosby in his hotel room.

Women who trade sex for drugs are known as chicken heads. It's a thing. And besides her word there's no evidence of rape.

He may be guilty but if that is the standard by which people are convicted, we're going to end up with more innocent people in prison than we already have.

Maybe some groups in the US want to destroy anyone we have ever looked up to. Tear down the Teddy Roosevelt statue and put up a new one of that crack-smoking mayor of DC or Baltimore. Same-same. You know, Hunter Biden's smoking buddy. I never had a chance to try crack, yet.

I've tried crack a few times back in my drug days nearly 2 decades ago, it just gives me a headache and it's not fun. I guess it's more fun for other people and I'm just weird? I don't like coke either though.

    Then a society which shuns justified violence, entrepreneurship, rocket jockeying, and all other forms of rewarding individual risk-taking (I'm ignoring dare devils for the sake of argument) eliminates all possible associated rewards and makes society poorer. Not to mention the psychological stunting it causes in those who would have been rewarded, which drives them to those alternate highs as druggies and wire-heads.

    No wonder masculinity is toxic to them. It is life itself.

    Interesting! That's not the only drug I don't respond to normally, shrooms have no effect on me either. I don't have what it takes to turn the prodrug psilocybin to psilocin apparently.
