The person I replied to asked for evidence of him being a good human being....I provided that. It’s your choice if you want to discount his contributions to humanity, but that does not make them any less impactful or irrelevant. Further, it’s also your choice to place more weight on an unproved allegation of sexual assault compared to his philanthropy, community service and impact off the court. One is rooted in fact, while the other is rooted on speculation or at a minimum, incomplete facts/evidence.
As far as bringing up Cosby, that’s a false equivalency since Cosby was convicted of a crime and is serving time in prison. In other words, the facts/evidence support the allegations. Also, there’s multiple allegations against Cosby that span several decades. That’s not the case for Kobe.
