LONDON, Ontario – Bill Cosby jokingly warned a woman in the audience during a show in Canada Thursday night to be careful drinking around him.

Cosby made the remark at his second performance in a row after a string of cancellations that followed sexual assault allegations from more than 15 women. Some of the women accused Cosby of drugging them by slipping something in their drinks before he assaulted them

A woman who got up from one of the front rows and walked past the stage was asked by Cosby where she was going. When she answered that she was going to the lobby to grab a drink Cosby responded: "You have to be careful about drinking around me." The remark was met with loud applause.

A few minutes later a heckler yelled at Cosby that he was a rapist.

1. I am shocked that he can stonewall his way through this. There's just too many people coming forwrd.

[monmouth4]

2. If he ever gets to a court room that remark says he admits to guilt..n/t

[Sunlei]

3. I guess our tabloid media can't wait for the final night, in hopes that there will be more hecklers

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

6. until he definitively denies the charges and quits refusing to discuss

He deserves all the heckling he gets.

20+ women coming forward is too big to say "I dont talk about that."

Sure, he has a legal right to stay quiet, but he has no moral right to an adoring audience or pass from public opinion.

10. "Party groupie claims." You are a rape apologist

Disgusting.

People like you are why we have rape culture.

[Sunlei]

12. no I'm not! I've been to a lot of parties.

[geek tragedy]

13. Nonsensical defense of an indefensible statement. nt

[Sunlei]

15. one thing I don't like is to give a fox tabloid story hits.

But your personal attack, I'll let slide.

[geek tragedy]

18. Your disparagement and smearing of rape victims

is nauseating. You earn scorn by attacking rape victims in order to defend their rapist.

[lunasun]

17. and never heard of rufies or narcos?

[nomorenomore08]

23. So you don't understand the difference between a "groupie" and someone who's been drugged

against her will?

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

11. So were the actresses he "mentored" and invited over "party groupies?"

and do give us the quote where he denied any of these charges

[Sunlei]

14. No they were not and they do/did have a right to sue, but it should have been earlier.

They could have asked a lawyer what to do, perhaps they did.

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

4. What an asshole

To think I used to respect him

[Frank Cannon]

5. There's not a doubt in my mind about him.

This guy's behavior in the face of all these accusations has done NOTHING but demonstrate what an enormous creep he is. And it sounds like his audience is pretty loathsome, as well. You'd have to be sick to think you can get laughs from a pretentious, perverted geezer like him.

8. That is real funny Bill Cosby

Real funny .... NOT!

May the chips fall where they may fall AWHOLE!!!!

[geek tragedy]

9. He's a scumbag, and so are his defenders. nt

[polly7]

16. Not very polite, but I wish the woman walking by had flipped him off and just left completely.

I don't even understand why they wanted him to speak.

[1monster]

20. Got a feeling she was scripted into the show... Not just an audience member, but a planted

audience member.

[polly7]

21. I never thought of that .......... good point. nt.

[leftyladyfrommo]

19. His jokes show how much he really cares about what he did.

To him it's all just a big, stupid joke.

[Stuart G]

22. That anyone could "joke" about rape after having been accused defines him.

It is no joke, but he must think it is. A way of demeaning those who have come forward. Not one, but more than 20 have come forward. He defines himself with this attitude.

[Monk06]

24. It's about the legacy man nt
