Bill Cosby did terrible things but never said a bad words so he is treated differently from a comedian who says offensive words but never actually engaged in an offensive act. Actions speak louder than words. | ||

Not true. Michael Jackson never said bad words in his music but had a questionable private life and it was completely overlooked. Same with Jimmy Saville, Roman Polanski, etc | ||

Most comedians who say offensive words but never actually activity engage in an offensive act and are more prosecuted in the court of public opinion than Cosby was. This isn't true. Care to name a comedian who was more reviled for a tasteless joke than Cosby is for being a serial rapist? Because I don't think that's a thing. | ||

In this case, i would rather any of those individuals told a dirty joke on the subject of their crimes, (alleged or otherwise), than have gotten to the point where a legal case could be brought against them for their actions. | ||

Is your point really "How come comedians who stand on a stage and say inappropriate things but don't rape anyone on stage are more hated than rapists who rape people in rooms where nobody can see and people don't know about it?". People didn't fucking know. Jesus. The people on the stage got more attention than the people in the dark room with their victim because they were on a stage. If Bill Cosby were to drug and rape someone on a stage they'd also get negative attention and if a comedian were to tell a bad joke in a dark room with an unconscious woman they'd probably not get so much negative attention. | ||

One of those people are mean to you because you used a bad word. The other one you go to jail and people are also mean to you. Unless you dodge like Polanski, but he is an exception to the rule. | ||

And who exactly thinks that any of them is worse than a serial rapist? Care to name someone? They get thousands of people to pay money to come to their shows whereas Bill Cosby can't get anyone to pay to watch him rape an unconscious woman. | ||

Don't sip your piña coladas (with an umbrella, obviously) with your pinky in the air. It makes you look like a snob. Also, if someone tries to strike up a conversation with you, shiv them in the stomach, they are clearly looking for a fight, and it's best to strike preemptively. | ||

Cosmo Kramer cant even though he was on the most successful tv show of all time because he said a couple words a decade ago. New question. How come children who are born via c-section and raised on baby formula have more health ailments then children born via natural birth and raised on mothers milk? | ||

How come children who are born via c-section and raised on baby formula have more health ailments then children born via natural birth and raised on mothers milk? There are multiple factors coming into play here and I'm only giving you the most essential points for each: 1) Formula vs milk: Formula does not contain any antibodies meaning the child's immune system does not get any help. Further formula is deficient in minerals, vitamins, specific fats, and other areas. 2) C-section vs birth: A child going through the vaginal birth will be exposed to quite a lot of bacteria on the way - there is a theory that this helps colonize the child's digestive tract - which also helps the immune system. Furthermore, the added "stress" for the baby to go through a vaginal birth means a higher epinehprine response which, alongside the mechanical pressure being applied during the birth, helps with expelling fluid from the lungs and ensure better breathing of the newborn child. There is quite a lot more to it, but this was it in short. | ||
