Debra Winger and Whoopi Goldberg, one of the regular hosts on the ABC-TV show "The View," both think that Roman Polanski should not face any further penalties as a consequence of his drugging and raping a thirteen-year old girl 30 years ago when he was 44 years old.
Whoopi commented on The View:
“I know it wasn’t rape-rape. It was something else, but I don’t believe it was rape-rape.”
What an assinine comment. What a freakin' FIDIOT! C'mon, Whoopi, rape is rape. Would you be so magnanimous if Polanski preyed on someone in your family? If an adult male has sexual relations with a child it is rape, end of story.
Woody Allen, (no surprise) another Polanski defender, and Debra Winger attended a film festival honoring the director Polanski in Switzerland where Winger said she was there
“to honor Roman Polanski as a great artist, but under these sudden and arcane circumstances, we can only think of him today as a human being.”
Ya think? I certainly don't. I think that MOST normal people would think of pedophile Polanski as just what he is: a scurrilous bit of human detritus that fled from the tiniest shred of justice that rightfully should have been afforded to his thirteen year old victim.
How is that so many of these same people can villify Michael Vick for his involvement in dog fighting, and for which he paid his debt in prison, yet they support convicted pedophile Polanski who NEVER paid his debt to society?

I can only wonder what their opinion is of the practice of child brides.
