Interesting that people want to talk about everything else but question at hand.
Should Bill Cosby be in prison?
If the answer is yes, and you have evidence to prove it, then you should submit your evidence to the proper authorities.
I know emotions are running high but lets stick to the facts please.
You guys are tying yourselves in knots over this.
I get it but c'mon - facts are facts.
"Cosby's conviction has been overturned in a Court of Law based on the decisions of those with the power to decide (from the DA to the judges) = statement of fact.
An "appeal to authority" logical fallacy in an effort to convince someone of something via "appealing to authority".
"What if it were your daughter / would you be cool with your daughter taking unknown pills from strangers?" is a valid, open ended question. You're free to answer as you please.
First I was "victim blaming" now I'm "appealing to emotions"
Notice - not one of you answered the question.
An "appeal to emotion" logical fallacy is an effort to convince someone of something via "appealing to emotions".
Ex:
The rest of the comments are mere opinions and so forth.
Ex:
" Only judges’ opinions matter, but those first judges were wrong, and you’re right because the state Supreme Court agrees with you, but it’s okay to disagree with judges, and never forget that you’re innocent until proven guilty, but guilty people go free every day, and maybe we should go to war."
"Only judges’ opinions matter" = (Yes, in a court of Law only the Judges (or Jury's) opinion matters.)
"but those first judges were wrong" = (Yes, a judges decisions can be overturned - by other judges).
"and you’re right because the state Supreme Court agrees with you" = (Who made this claim?)
"but it’s okay to disagree with judges" (Yes - its Ok to disagree)
"and never forget that you’re innocent until proven guilty, but guilty people go free every day" (Yes)
"maybe we should go to war" = (See US History from April 12, 1861 – April 9, 1865)
Might be hard to follow emotionally but if we step back a bit and rely on the facts - its clear to see that the 5th Amendment is here for a reason and prosecutorial misconduct is real.
I know emotions are running high and my POV might be unpopular here and that's Ok (at least for me).
Bill Cosby should not be in Prison.
