45. Aren't you the one running around saying....

"The Collective DU is defending Woody Allen or watching his movies or saying they don't know what happened, therefore they are blankety blank blank and fuck them!"?

You've now determined people aren't allowed to do the same thing with Mia Farrow in what seems to be a very willing defense of Polanski, a known child rapist? Even if it's an unrelated matter (him being sleazy, which is apparently a HUGE shock to Mia) WHY should anyone defend him? We have people right here who've openly said on the Woody issue, they don't care about the legal system....he's a rapist and not entitled to any defense of any kind. Stop watching and buying his movies, protest awards shows, etc. etc....and if you don't you are a vile, awful person.

But you don't care to hold Mia Farrow to the same standard of defending a sick, child raping pervert.

Care to give me your thoughts on Polanski? Just so we're clear here....

I get the impression though that some seem to think it means he's innocent kcr Feb 2014 #36
Boundary issues do not make you attracted to pre-pubescents. Bonobo Feb 2014 #37

She was subpoened? Where is that information? edbermac Feb 2014 #40
Framing of her testimony aside - it's interesting that above it is cited that records were destroyed redqueen Feb 2014 #42
Huh? I just asked where you got that info about her being subpoened. edbermac Feb 2014 #43
No, your first reply to this OP was an attempt to imply her testimony was somehow meaningful. redqueen Feb 2014 #50
