Anyway trash

I don't remember RDJr defending him, but I'm not surprised. Just another reason to not like the guy.

both RDJ and Jodi Foster have been his biggest champions for years

Jodie Foster has also worked with Polanski. This was after she made The Accused.

It goes to show that many people are only against men being violent to girls/women, until it serves them not to be.
