Some people should just keep their mouths shut. He and his daughter are morons. Lets just forget the fact that Polanski is a child rapist because he’s famous and can direct a decent film. Celebrities make me sick with their holier than thou attitude.

The man drugged and then RAPED a 13 year old girl for goodness sake. How so many people can sit here and defend this sick man is beyond me.

I heard Fonda say Polanski is a bastard. So what’s his true opinion?

I could’nt agree with you more!

So, according to Peter Fonda no one should be arrested until Osama Bin Laden gets arrested first. Is that his logic, or just another flashback? Where did he get his morals from? It couldn’t be from his father. He must have gotten them from his sister.

When people want crap from the Fondas they’ll squeeze their heads.

I don’t think the populace knows the exact details of the rape. He went beyond rape. This man is an extreme, vile pedophile, nothing less. It has been reported that Polanski thought it was no big deal, that he had had younger victims. Suppose someone did the same exact acts to his children. Oh yes, he’d say, no big deal, right? No mercy from USA, maybe God, but time to pay. I actually think God will be even less merciful. Further, no wonder Henry Fonda was so ashamed of both his daughter and son.

You guys understand nothing. It’s not about what Roman did it’s about humanity. What good will it do to bring him behind bars now hurting his family, ruining the rest of his productive life? Will it change anything in what happened then? Will it fix anything? Adding another tragedy to the one that happened and that was forgiven by the victim will do any good? What a stupid notion of justice Americans have! Absolutely agree with what the French foreign minister said: sinister and stupid.

Thanks for your comment Peter, Roman Polanksi could not have had more love, sympathy and support.. the injustice done to his beautiful wife and eight month child by maniacs murdering..ripping the innocent infant from it’s mothers womb..it was horror! beyond horror! obviously he used drugs to order an encourage his hippie chicks to murder,he went on to become a brilliant Director…unfortunately he broke the law against an innocent jinnocent.justust as horrific? …the law won, just as you pay for your parking tickets you pay the crime. How would he feel if Charlie Manson escaped America and broke the law?
he was a song writer besides maniac. I’m sorry your brilliant
friend had to suffer so deeply. Is it The Bill of Rights I’m protecting here or the honor of an innocent? It’s the Law.
Quaaludes 714 Rorer would have made the devil love you.
It was Romans slow premeditating diabolic seduction through the use of a camera and famous friends home with a drug mixed with alcohol that not only was dangerous could really have killed her, I wish him well, but please don’t insult The United States of American Law..it’s all about how to get away with it, not a man with humility but a c*ck sure attitude of how dare you do this to me!! who the hell is he? a nice guy that loves to party and hide behind a statue? I challenge any father to consider this, consider the manipulation of his new film/documentary coming out with Weinstein. I’m not trying to change your mind, only some ordinary person with a deep sense of justice for an innocent infant or child. America used
all its power to apprehend the murderers of his family, and rightfully so. I refuse to be branded by any name, I just want
Mr. Polanski to get IT. pay your parking ticket, take the hit, and for goodness sake don’t allow lawyers to use you for money.
You need a serious P.R. company.

my computer has slowed down I’m on gig control please excuse the typos…

Are you joking? He raped a 13 year old. Read the transcript of her testimony. If you do the crime you should do the time. The artical is wrong. He is NOT “facing charges”. He admitted guilt and has been convicted.

I’m sorry, are you suggesting nobody should ever go to jail? Being arrested, tried, sentenced and punished will never change the past or undo a crime. Serving time in jail almost always impact the convicts family. So by your arguement there should be no justice at all?

Study your American law. The vi

To be as kind as possible, it seems like most Hollywood types have trouble putting aside their professional admiration for Polanski and being objective.

What punishing Polanski will do will be to serve as a deterrant to the other possible would be hebephile rapists and plain-old rapists. It would show there are consequences for this type of behavior.

Just maybe that possible would be rapist, knowing someone like Polanski eventually was served his sentence after 32 years, will then not cavalierly rape someone else’s 13-year old daughter.

You do have a duaghter(s), niece(s), aunt(s)?

How about we get Roman Polanksi drunk and add a few illegal drugs and let him spend a couple of hours with a sex starved crocodile instead of going to court and possible jail.

If you are actually going to sit here and support a child molest- THEN YOUR EQUALLY SICK.

Since Sarkozy is a Jew and Mitterand is a pedophile (bought a boy in Thai), its no wonder they moved quick to protect lolicom rapist Polanski.

Jewish are the people hunting down old Nazi for decades with no mercy, but begging to free a rapist only because he is a so-called film director.

Its all possible, because of Jewish money and France is lame.

You French who support Polanski are giving the impression above to the whole world.
Is that what you want?
I feel sorry for taxpayers of France.

Okay, he actually did abuse a then-13.year-old – but didn’t that “little unsullied girl” have sex with older men already before that undeniable act of crime (Polanski was and will always be responsible for what he did just because he was old enough and she was simply too young), wasn’t she already consuming drugs on her own, without Polanskis support? So where were her parents? Wasn’t it her mother who tried to spotlight her own flesh and blood, her minor daughter by parading her around in the movie business, handing her over into a renowned scenery of sex, drugs and alcohol? And wasn’t that negligent yet penally to do?!? In short, what was that girl even doing there – on the premises of Mister Playboy Himself, Jack Nicholson?!
And now who will be the main ones to suffer from Polanskis possible imprisonment in the States – his minor children Morgan (16) and Elvis(11), who maybe won’t meet their father in freedom even again. Wow, justice really serves well….to do justice for its own sake – absolute from the people who should be involved and not ignored!

[quote=Fed - up with Perv's]I don’t think the populace knows the exact details of the rape. [/quote]

no they don’t. and they don’t know if what the girl said is true. certainly they had sex. that was likely 100% proven. but was this a case of hold down forced sex or was she a ‘willing’ participant. i say willing with a caveat that she would likely have been enamored by this director and at her young age acting on a crush and on the notion that having him as a ‘friend’ would make her a star. which isn’t really any more right in terms of child abuse (given the age). so at the least he should be punished for that and most certainly for fleeing. but there are issues with the DA leading her testimony so the full facts might not be known

All the criminals out there would be thankful for your argument no matter how absurd it is. They can come and rape you and your loved ones, then use the same argument of yours to defend themselves and hopefully to be forgiven by you and let go free. You would be feeling perfectly glad. Right?

“Sinister and stupid” are actually for the French culture represented well by its Culture and Foreign minister.

A 13 year old BY LAW cannot be a “willing” participant! Even IF she flat out said, “Mr. Polanski I want you to have sex with me.” it is rape. He was already found guilty for it- he should serve his complete sentence even if he makes decent movies. A child rapist is a child rapist and should be kept away from all kids.

I’m not sure why people are so surprised at the Polanski Defense and defenders. The victim’s testimony here is pretty shocking but no more than Juanita Broderick who Clinton raped about the same time and no one… absolutely NO one wants to bring Clinton to justice or justice to Clinton. Nameless editorialist, does your outrage extend to the most infamous rapist in the world, Bill Clinton? If not, why not? It was a long, long time ago. It was a minor mistake. You see, the Polanski Defense is nothing more than the Clinton Defense. Perhaps now some of you can see why so much of the country was disgusted with the Clinton Defense when first we heard it, a decade ago. Disgusting

What good does it do to prosecute anyone? All criminals, when caught, repent & usually find Jesus. Let them all go! What a load.
