Comedian Hannibal Buress accuses Bill Cosby of being a rapist in his stand-up routine in Philadelphia. He says, "It's even worse because Bill Cosby has the f*ckin' smuggest old black man persona that I hate. He gets on TV, 'Pull your pants up black people, I was on TV in the 80s! I can talk down to you because I had a successful sitcom!' Yeah, but you rape women, Bill Cosby, so turn the crazy down a couple notches."

He goes on to say, "I guess I want to just at least make it weird for you to watch Cosby Show reruns. I've done this bit on stage and people think I'm making it up.... when you leave here, google 'Bill Cosby rape.' That sh*t has more results than 'Hannibal Buress.'" Watch the video!
