At the bottom of an LA Times article yesterday about Roman Polanski's imminent release (into house arrest) from a Swiss prison, the comment section began, surely unintentionally, with the following words.

If you are under 13 years of age you may read this message board, but you may not participate.


You may, however, be raped by a famous movie director and then excused for it by half the intelligentsia of Hollywood.

Off, likely, to spend far more money today than any of you Black Friday honks, and I'm not going anywhere near a mall:P

Is it okay for one to want, in addition to dropping a trip-hammer on Polanski, to drop an anvil on the prosecutor and a sledgehammer on the judge?

And how much of the apologizing, I wonder, is a result of the apologists having lived a cloistered existence?

Anyone's defense of Roman Polanski's actions just befuddles me. Having worked as a social worker with kids that have been conned (read DRUGGED) into sexual acts with older men, I can tell you that the damage done lasts a lifetime. He need to be UNDER a jail, not in a house.

I did go to Walmart on Black Friday, but I went a 5 p.m. when everyone went home for left over turkey.
