13 Reasons Roman Polanski Should Not Be Prosecuted

Lately it seems the media has bombarded us with the news of the arrest of famed filmmaker Roman Polanski; who has been dodging prosecution on a child rape charge for three decades.

Frankly, I’m really sick and tired of hearing about; but more than anything I’m really disgusted by Polanski and his supporters – including his victim – who think he should get away with such a disgusting crime.

So I’ve decided to lighten up a little this week, play along in a popular blog meme, and have some fun with this subject.

Today’s headline at TCBR is 13 Reasons Roman Polanski Should Not Be Prosceuted:

1. He’s still holding onto a “Get Out of Jail Free” card he drew in a game of Monoply.




2. Woody Allen says so.




3. There would be no one to make films to put me to sleep.




4. He’s a victim too (Sharon Tate was his wife).  {This is said in a long, drawn-out whiny voice}




5. It was an accident.  He didn’t mean for it to happen.  {insert whiny voice here}




6. He’s 72-years-old.  There should be an exception to senior citizens.




7. He was so successful in his effort to avoid prosecution for so long.   Doesn’t that count for something?




8. Money can buy anything; as in, pay your victim, you’ll go scot-free.




9. He promises to never do it again.  And this will be reinforced by the refusal of his physician to prescribe Polanski Viagra.




10. His 13-year-old drugged victim never actually said, “No.”




11. Polanski is European.  And everybody knows that anything goes in Europe – and those same rights transfer even when you’re a Europian living in America.  




12. Polanski misunderstood what Barrack Obama meant when he said, “Change.” 




13. He’s afraid of being raped in prison.
