After 31 years ....

I think what she is most popular for is when she was on The View. After she left that, she sort of faded into nothing.

Polanski feels depressed in jail

Aw, diddums.

[lordlundar]

Aww, poor baby. I'm sure someone will send him a depression kit. You know, a pack of razor blades and instructions on how to do it properly.

I was wondering if someone else was going to bring that up.

Johnny Depp is lending his support to Roman Polanski saying the man has been married a long time to his wife, has 2 beatiful kids, and is 75 or 76 therefore he is not a predator.

[telecom_goddess]

And? I'm glad to see these people support him. I think the whole case was a pile of crap to begin with. She was obviously willing and wants the whole thing to just be dropped already. They need to let it go.

[IDrinkaRum]

I am disgusted that these high profile Hollywood type people are supporting Roman Polanski. The person he raped was a 13-year-old girl child. That fact doesn't go away. Neither does the fact that he ran away to another country so he didn't have to face any jail time.

I was looking forward to seeing the Tim Burton film with Johnny Depp playing the Mad Hatter, but that's one movie I'm definitely not seeing when it comes out.

Johnny Depp's acting abilities have nothing to do with his political and social views.

[IDrinkaRum]

True, but I don't think I can stomach watching a supporter of a child rapist for at least 90 minutes or even longer.

ORLY? So I guess that since Charles Manson is also 75, that means that he's not dangerous and should be released?

I can understand the reference to his age if it was to point out that he hasn't done that again since that one time.

[IDrinkaRum]

Yes, but how do we know he didn't do it again?

Just because it wasn't reported, doesn't mean he hasn't done the same thing.

And Manson never actually killed anyone, he was just the Master Mind behind everything. And it's his mind that keeps him in jail because he's just plain ol' crazy and he can still find people who are willing to do anything for him.

There is such a huge difference between Roman Polanski and Charles Manson ...you can't compare the two. Charles Manson will be crazy until the day he dies.

Just my 2 cents, but I wouldn't call raping a 13 y/o girl 'normal' (normal as opposed to 'crazy')
I'm not a parent, yet, but I wouldn't want that kind of person loose.

Someone who didn't commit a murder, only brainwashed weak-minded, weak-willed people, I, strangely, see as less of a threat; crazy true, but I think the swastika on his forehead serves as a good "Here's your sign" that you should stay away. Roman Polaski has no such sign.
