“This is a man who I love a lot and know a little bit. Our daughters are good friends. But there is one justice, and that should be the same for everyone. I will let justice happen... I don’t have any opinion on this, but I have a daughter, 13 years old. And if she was violated, nothing would be the same, even 30 years later.”

Kate Harding says, "Reminder: Roman Polanski raped a child". http://www.salon.com/mwt/broadsheet/feature/2009/09/28/polanski_arrest/index.html

I linked to that a few posts ago (it was in a sea of bullet points so you may have easily missed it).

A lot of the people "supporting" Polanski seem to be glossing over the fact that he planned and carried out the rape of a child. Because it's not convenient to let it stand out too much, really. Idiots.

And here's Kate's further followup:

She really has been the go-to person for me with this mess.

Is anybody organizing a boycott of the celebs who've come out in support of Polanski?

[melyndabelinda]

I was thinking along those lines myself.

[fearsclave]

Not, mind you, that I pay any attention to Whoopi Goldberg anyhow...

I was just considering the fact that Disney owns ABC and a host of other companies. Does Disney want to continue to employ, even indirectly, people who excuse the rape of children?

Thanks for staying classy, Luc Besson. Some fucker in Hollywood had to!
