I heard a very interesting comparison today....
Say Polanski was a Catholic priest instead of a famous movie Director.
Would that change things for those who are protesting his capture?
If you can't say you'd let the priest off the hook (Woody Allen, Martin Scorcesse, Whoopi Goldberg), then how is it that you can find it in you to let Polanski off the hook?
BTW, here's what Whoopi had to say.
It wasn't "rape - rape"
I guess that's worse than just rape. But not as bad as rape-rape-rape.
