I have often said and written that Europeans are different. First, they come from thousands of years of oppression as serfs. "Serfs"....such a nothing word. But, in fact, is cleanses the real truth: they were slaves. As a matter of fact, a majority of the
people on earth for several thousands of years have been and there still are slaves. It is a fact that may explain why so many
of those outside of America and the minority of Americans that are part of the unreasonable, UberLeft! Since I have believed
this way for decades, it has never truly surprised me when they do what I consider "crazy" things...or when their governments treat them like children and do things to "protect" them. I understand that the rich in Europe have free reign to do anything the wish without any problems.
That brings me to this Polanski thing. First, let me say that how we viewed "child sexual abusers" in those days was
fairly simple. We took them out. But, I don't honestly remember anything other than the Polanski crime. You have to remember
that most of us young adults had not been exposed to homosexuality, pedophilia, transvestites, economic/emotional abusers.
We were, innocent, and would pay for that over the next 3-4 decades. We believed in the Ten Commandments, there was
still respect for our elders, people in power, the police and religion. During the Polanski crime, we were just beginning
to have to accept that the world was changing and not for the better.The fact hat a man in his forties would do what he did
to his victim was a horrifying event in our lives. I knew he "raped" her, not as Whoppie says she wasn't but in the real
definition of the word, and he sodomized her too. She was a l3 year-old child, he knew that, and her Mother was as responsible
as Polanski and she should also have been charged! The crime has nothing to do with today and who the young girl has become.
But, it is a clear indicator of the difference between "them" and us. Them: celebrities, wealthy Americans and Europeans that
don't understand why we are not backing off and letting this disgusting 76 year old man off. "Them" don't think there is anything
wrong with pedophillia. Them generally can accomodate their desires, wants and needs regardless of what those involved in
their desires, wants and needs feel or want. Noblesse Oblige did not apply when they were satiating their desires, wants and needs.
Polanski must bend to the justice of humanity. You do not abuse and damage children. You can do to each other what you
want with complete agreement. But, complete agreement can come only with adults...children don't have the capacity of total
understanding of the consequences of their behavior on their bodies/mind or future. Polanski needs to go to jail for at least
five years or more....no probation.
