Cosby's reprehensible actions, I must admit that I have enjoyed his comedy for years. I would like to be able to separate the art from the flawed man and continue to enjoy at least some of it, especially his early monologues.

I also find it appalling that there is such a double standard that a man who is guilty of the same - and more - is currently occupying the WH - and being defended for his actions, especially by those who count themselves to be "religious" people.

Until Trump - and those like him who are white - suffer the same fate, I will not consider justice to have been done.
