Roman Polanski OR In Which Austin Flaps His Big Fat Yap

[bentarc]

Roman Polanski drugged and raped a thirteen year-old girl. No question about this; he pled guilty. Then he left the country. He has, in Europe, had an accomplished and storied career. He won an Oscar (which he couldn't collect). He has created very famous movies

What are we finding out?

You already know the answer.

The law knows no compromise. That's why society only works when laws cannot be uniformly enforced. That's why there are lawyers, juries, and judges. All of which are influenced by things that have nothing to do with the law.

In this case, I'm not advocating for compromise.
