If Rush Limbaugh or Glenn Beck had raped a 13 year old decades ago, |
|
and then absconded before sentencing, would we be having the same debate we're having here now?
Somehow I think it would all be much clearer . . . .

1. Yes indeed. I respect Polanski as an artist |
|
But I cannot forgive what he did to that young girl. :(

3. That seems like an odd argument; a few people here think those guys should already be locked up |
|
Like all right thinking people I'm goddamn sick of hearing about Polanski, and largely agree that he should get what's coming to him, but I'm not sure our willingness to be vengeful to people we don't agree with politically is really a strong argument.

5. I think Polanski needs to face justice, just as I would if it were anyone else. |
|
But some people here seem to think he's a special case.
