Polanski now free & sleazy

GSTAAD, Switzerland -- In a stunning ruling, Roman Polanski was declared a free man yesterday -- no longer confined to house arrest in his Alpine villa after Swiss authorities rejected a United States request for his extradition because of a 32-year-

old sex conviction.

The decision left the director free to return to France and the life of a celebrity, albeit one unable to visit the US.

"Mr. Polanski can now move freely," Swiss Justice Minister Eveline Widmer-Schlumpf declared. "He's a free man."

Fine, if they want a pedophile roaming free there, then let them.  That worked well for so many others.  Look at how well it worked for Gary Glitter.
All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.

That sick bastard. Oh well, I am confident he will continue to mail in his absentee ballot for Democrat candidates on time.

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

It's just too bad that a person can't take Justice into their own hands.......

Hm-m-m...I wonder if the Swiss would extradite us.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

You are reading WAY too much into this.  It is more sucking up to France and the liberal elite.

Polanski is a sicko. He should have been in jail LONG ago. He won. And it sickens me.

Can someone explain to me why Hollywood and the left hate Mel Gibson for his spoken words, but are willing to forgive Polanski?

You'd probably have to go to DU to have that question answered. I'm not sure that anybody here is quite so idiotic as to even formulate a response to that, much less answer the question.
