#1 Each and every one should be arrested and charged as an accessory after the fact.

#2 Or their 13-year old daughters should visit Polanski for a weekend.

#4 It seems inadmissible to them that an international cultural event, paying homage to one of the greatest contemporary filmmakers, is used by the police to apprehend him,"

How much more clearly can you say "our needs are above those of the law"???

#5 700? Why is it that Hollywood always supports a low-life accused of something. Suppose each of the 700 petition signers, instead sent a $1000 to the victim of this pediphile.

#6 Obviously a large number do not read the English language. The transcript that is on smokinggun.com is quite damning...

All these folks are either fools or evil.

#8 It's ironic that Polanski may be extradited to a country where the 'czar' appointed by Bambi to assure safe schools is on record counseling children how to have 'safe' sex with adults.

Peas in a pod?

#9 All these folks are either fools or evil.

I'm starting to think that Hollywood sees this as a stereotypical quid pro quo between a stage mom with her aspiring but underage daughter and a famous movie director. In this version of the story, Polanski's sin is not in boinking a drugged-up teenie bopper, but failing to come thru with the career goods. Unfortunate, but understandable for such a busy man.

#10 "want him to know that he has their support and friendship,"

-surreal. As w/bambi - you can tell a lot about a person by who they associate with.
