The Sad Demise of a Legend

I think one of the most saddening tragedies is when someone in the twilight of their lives face ending their lives in a prison cell. We are potentially watching the destruction of an American Icon due to his ego and a few opportunistic women back in his glory days.

This a very difficult topic to talk about because I am torn in my stance on Mr. Cosby and the accusations and some of the actions he admitted to with women. We have heard some of the testimony of Cosby where he admits to giving sedatives to women prior to engaging in sex with them. The question that the whole world must answer is whether or not this was a known drugging or an unknown drugging that led to nonconsensual sex with these women.

I am a realist, and by that I believe that if you have many voices saying the same thing then there is some truth to the rumors because the same story won’t get told by the same person. The fact that over 30 women have come out with a similar version of the events tells me that he did something wrong. But, I’m also going to be honest and say that I don’t believe all of them. As with anything, you always have a few selfless folks who will jump the bandwagon to try and get some attention and money.

I also think that Mr. Cosby suffered from a power trip where he was one of most powerful actors in Hollywood and the culture at the time was wild fun and partying. I think that sex and drugs and drinking went hand in hand back when most of these claims were made. I think one of the great lessons we have to learn from folks of Cosby’s stature is that if you’re not careful and remain level headed, you are prone to making choices that at some point could come back to hurt you.

It’s very ironic that the man widely known as American’s dad, is possibly going to be another convict in the prison system because he didn’t know how to control his hands, dick and hormones. I don’t know how innocent all these women are and I don’t know how victimized Bill Cosby is, but I think it’s just a horrible way to have your life and legacy come to an end.

I hope people start to learn lessons about being powerful and mighty in any industry any where in America. If you gone fuck around keep it quiet and damn it make sure whomever you fucking consents. It’s really played out to have these types of things come out no matter how old. The easiest thing to do when your that fucking famous is get laid. Sorry, just telling the truth.
