And that is the typical, emotional, knee-jerk, conservative bullshit reaction of someone who can't separate the crime from the process (as I mentioned above). Your leaders keep you angry, and want you to keep your pitchforks high against imaginary threats to our safe little society for any reason that can be scrounged up, all so healthcare stays a for-profit endeavor, poors and darkies die young, and cars continue to guzzle Arab gas.
You might as well have not even read my post.
I think I've
MORE than put aside some highly conservative views I may have had in the past so instead of playing the same old tune like I'm the same person I was five years ago try something new...Like paying attention.
I
AM separating the crime from the process. The crime was and
IS heinous. Raping a child is absolutely despicable and disgusting and quite fucking frankly Polanski's sentence 30 years ago was a slap on the wrist, pedophiles deserve the death penalty as far as I'm concerned. Luckily, so it seems, Polanski didn't ruin that child's life but who knows how many children's lives he did ruin, the kiddie diddler's been running free for 30 fuckin' years. The man is a disgusting, vile, perverted excuse for a human being and it's probably a good thing he doesn't believe in hell because his soul is headed straight for the pit of it and he's going to be Satan's bitch.
Those making an excuse for his behavior are pieces of shit, it's disgusting. Because the crime was committed so long ago doesn't magically make it not a crime. Fine, Polanski's last trial was a circus? Retry him. Thirty years ago things were looser, Hollywood types weren't so exposed, things like this warranted a couple months in jails because it was all love, peace, and hair grease man. Child rape went hidden and unnoticed, un-prosecuted and misunderstood. Unfortunately, or fortunately, we're ALL TOO familiar with child rape now so let's do it, give the kiddie fucker another trial, let's see if he get's off with probation or even 10 years in jail. I'm all for it!
Fucking ridiculous apologists, absolutely pathetic. I've personally known several Holocaust survivors and they're wonderful, beautiful people that have gone on to live gorgeous productive and meaningful lives. Being a Holocaust survivor doesn't give you the right or excuse to be a disgusting piece of garbage, in fact it tarnishes what good and decent survivors fought for. You don't get to victimize because you were a victim. Roman Polanski is a sick mother fucker who needs more therapy than the 70's ever had to offer.
I'm sure Roman Polanski's parents fought for their lives so their adult son could make borderline crappy movies and fuck children. They'd be so proud.
