I read that today as well Beige. He said that the 13 year old was a hooker and that Polanski was just an innocent victim.

Apparently Gore Vidal, that noted bearer of a finely-calibrated moral compass, agrees that poor, poor Roman Polanski was the victim here.

I believe John Wayne Gacy should be Vidal’s bunkie in hell, personally.

Jamie Fox has commented on this and I have to say I like what he had to say. He said that if Polanski tried this with his daughter, they would not be able to find the body. We just need more people who go will go with what they really feel instead of just going with the general Hollywood thought process and stop defending the perv

A youthful error? Yes, perhaps.
But he’s been punished for this lapse–
For decades exiled from LA
He knows, as he wakes up each day,
He’ll miss the movers and the shakers.
He’ll never get to see the Lakers.
For just one old and small mischance,
He has to live in Paris, France.
He’s suffered slurs and other stuff.
Has he not suffered quite enough?
How can these people get so riled?
He only raped a single child.

Why make him into some Darth Vader
For sodomizing one eighth grader?
This man is brilliant, that’s for sure–
Authentically, a film auteur.
He gets awards that are his due.
He knows important people, too–
Important people just like us.
And we know how to make a fuss.
Celebrities would just be fools
To play by little people’s rules.
So Roman’s banner we unfurl.
He only raped one little girl.

He’s never officially stepped out of the closet, Beige.

His father was one of the founding members which means he has some ties, if only in upbringing. However, if Neil isn’t a practicing member, he’s never bothered to say so in public.

I was shocked though, given that so much of his work draws on historic theology rather than extraterrestrialdianeticrappidnousness.

Holy crap. Gaiman is a Scientologist? Am I the last to know? AGAIN?!?

Well I knew about Jewel (from Deceiver) and Kirstie Alley as well. That’s a bit more encouraging to hear there’s a few more too. One of these celebs should start a petition AGAINST Roman.

Neil Gaiman (et al)… aren’t drinking the Polanski/Weinstein Kool-Aid either.

Well if that’s true, maybe I can forgive one of my favorite authors for his xenuflection.

Hee. I like how that URL contains the phrase “EU”. I know, European Union and all. But still, consider the story, and tell me if “EU” “EU” doesn’t seem appropriate.
