I dont appreciate being accused of attacking someone. I did not attack you. in both situations, YOU brought up something then denied it later. I thought you might need some reminding.
You said but what happend i don't think anyone will ever know for sure. with the rate this girl keeps saying to drop charges against polanski i wouldn't be surprised if some of the stuff was added to try and recieve money or a payoff. - your words.
you also said you honestly seem to think that law is either black or white and that there is no grey area. - your words.
All I was saying was that regardless of any of that, sexual misconduct happened, she was 13, he ran away. Therefore, he is in violation of criminal codes in america. so lawyers don't ensure justice.... because he's Roman Polanski, it's to be overlooked that he ran from his country's justice system? because it might be skewed? sorry, I can't go with that.
All I was saying, is that two facts are known: he admitted to misconduct with a minor, and he jumped bond. I also said that his work should be judged on its own merits. I also said my PERSONAL opinion is that he is scum for what he admitted doing and then running away. I'm sure there's more factors "at play" here, so far as looking at it ethically, morally, and all whatever else makes for an interesting debate. HOWEVER, I was not talking about ethics, scruples or morals. I was talking about my opinion based on his admitted misconduct and the laws HE BROKE.
no one said he should get away with anything because he's roman polanski... except for the words you tried to shove into my mouth.
you said you were through with that matter as did i. if you insist on being insulting and argumentative i don't find it surprising for a minute that someone anyone including me doesn't want to stick around and discuss this with you.
now as i've said before, i'm through with the matter. if you have more insults, etc to hurl please seek someone else to dish them out to.
