…based on a movie:
That this could happen to a famous director with excellent representation should send shivers to everyone else about what could happen to them. Instead, people want to spout off on the vigilante justice they think appropriate for Polanski based on crimes to which he never pleaded guilty and which were never proven in a court of law.
Ignorance and vengeance knows no bounds in the court of public opinion. Particularly by those who turn a blind eye to the facts. (Here is the Motion to Dismiss (pdf)and the Victim’s Declaration (pdf).)
Shorter version: Roman Polanski went for a ride on the elevator of justice, but all he got was the shaft. Free Roman.
Hey we all know how much good information you can get from a film:
Loaded with powerful, new footage and in-depth interviews with the likes of Steven Earl Jones, an American physicist who has discovered undetonated explosive material in multiple samples of dust from the World Trade Center collapses, this documentary presents a wide array of evidence both known and unknown…until now. Eight years later, the American people continue to live in the aftermath of 9/11 and deal with its ongoing repercussions. Is this just another machination of power on the timeline of history? If so, the real question is what happens next? Or better yet, what can we do to prevent another 9/11
Hey that was a movie too? Maybe the Truthers are onto something…
If you can tell the difference between Talk Left’s movie driven position and the truthers position then you are smarter than me.
The hole that is being dug by these guys just blows my mind. It is lemmings off the cliff.
This is going to be a turning point in the culture wars.
