You asshole

Roman Polanski at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival

Turns out Roman Polanski is an even bigger monster than anyone thought. In 1993 -- 15 years after he raped 13-year-old Samantha Geimer -- Polanski agreed to pay $500,000 to settle a lawsuit she brought against him. Not only did he not initially pay her the money, it's unclear if she ever collected anything. From PopEater:

The terms of the settlement were confidential, but the amount was disclosed in court documents because of a two-year struggle to get Polanski to pay. Court records, which were provided to media outlets Friday, do not indicate if Polanski ever paid. The last court filing in August 1996 shows Polanski, now 76, owed Geimer $604,416.22, including interest.

In a December 1995 filing, [Geimer's attorney Lawrence] Silver said "defendant has failed to pay any part of the sum due or the interest due on the attached note." Silver added that he talked to [Polanski's attorney David] Finkle, who agreed Polanski was in default.

Silver then sought some of Polanski's earnings by canvassing Hollywood for his wages. Among those who were contacted about Polanski were the Directors Guild of America, International Creative Management, Warner Bros. Inc. and Sony Studios.

I hate to play devil's advocate here, but in Roman's defense, before he stuck his dick up Samantha's ass to her repeated pleas of "no, no, no," she lied and told him she was actually 13-and-a-half. How come all these people so quick to cast guilt never talk about that little fact?

A realization of something about this case, this type of stuff...(sex with underaged girls with drug and alcohol as aids) must have been pretty common in the Sixties and all the way into the Seventies, the main difference between what happened with Roman and all the other people, is that someone actually pressed charges!!! That's why people in Hollywood and Europe, especially France back Roman, they have all been guilty at some point of the same situations.

What if this worthless, spineless, douchebag rapist was a homeless guy? Would these fancy privileged prick celebrities defend him then?

I don't care what awards he's won; everyone has done something of merit at one point or another in their lives. Why the fuck should he be let off? Allow me to make something very clear to the few dipshits reading this: RAPE RUINS YOUR LIFE! She will never be the same, and though she may have forgiven him (for her own sake, in case you know nothing about rape) and recovered as best as she can, she is going to be haunted by this horrific act for the rest of her life.

Whoever supported him, will rot along side him in Hell.

Yeah

His failure to pay his debt to the woman is undeniably much, much, much worse than his leaving his country after his judge decided that he wanted to be a celebrity too, and failed to honor the plea bargain that Polanski negotiated with the prosecutor.

Roman Polanski is a PRICK! If it were up to me I'd pack a cattle pod up this useless motherfuckers ass and set it on high, then I'd let it run until the damn thing burned up or burned it's way through the spineless, cocksucking asshole! Who cares how many awards he's won, he is still a fucking CHILD RAPIST and should have his balls cut off and stuffed down his throat. Anyone, I repeat ANYONE who defends this asshole is no better than he is. How would you feel if it had been YOUR daughter that he RAPED? FUCK YOU Roman Polanski !!

WTF!

Chill out. GW Bush has conspired and (thus) killed more than 4,000 US troops and hundreds of thousands of Iraqis and Afghans, and he's still out and about.

Why should I give a shit about Polanski?

Noam Chomsky is Commie Prick C

take off the tinfoil hat. turn off MSNBC. go outside. get some fresh air. stand still (i'm not a good shot and it takes me a moment to aim properly).

WTF!

Hey, can I move now? Out of curiosity, were are you aiming at? North, South, East, and West of Baghdad? Get your shit together man. Stop being a fagot and shoot already - I ain't got all day motherfucker.

p.s

No tinfoil hat here. You must have confused me with those 9/11 truthers.

PAZUZU

Ted Bundy had a very talented legal mind, he should have been forgiven. John Wayne Gacy was an entertaining clown, why was he convicted? Hitler was a fine painter,,,see where I'm going with this? Jail Polanski!

WTF!

Actually Hitler sucked balls in painting. Nice try though...

WTF!

"I hate to play devil's advocate here, but in Roman's defense, before he stuck his dick up Samantha's ass to her repeated pleas of "no, no, no," she lied and told him she was actually 13-and-a-half."

Do you think it's possible to lower the sensationalism a bit here? We all know what happened. There is no need for you to be so graphic. It's kinda suspicious and overly annoying that you keep repeating that she was 13yo and she was sodomized. Try to refrain from using such graphic language.

Have some respect for the girl at least.

p.s

Fuck Jews. Fuck them up their big Jew noses and cum on their yamaklus. And fuck those Holohoax survivors too.

Well said, Paul. Now can anyone who hasn't been caught up in that pesky Meggan's Law please respond?

Major Celebs have signed a petition to "Set Roman Free". His alleged victim has forgiven him. He is a famous person, director and a celeb in his own right. It is time to move on from what happened decades ago, and let Roman move on with his life. After all, around much of the world, girls are married by the time they are 13. Who are we to condem Roman.

Everyone knows that celebs and politicians do not have to live, or behave, by the same rules that the little people do. Neither does Roman.
