unless this is part of a plan to lure him out of hiding and into a murder trap, this is abso-fucking-lutely unacceptable. but that's hollywood. where apparently good art and money is more important than self-respect or the law. and that's inside a society in which whiteness and money are the ultimate get-out-of-jail cards. literally. ugh.
