It has to do with extradition, and how it would be hypocritical for the USA to seek fugitives abroad, while harboring fugitives here.
I understand what "it has to do with" but THIS particular thread is in the Celebrities forum and is about Roman Polanski's arrest in particular....your questions is more a philosophical/political debate which I would think would get more response in the P&OC or Great Debates...
So I'm guessing you'd be just as supportive if it was "Father Polanski" and the victim was a 13 y.o. boy....?
Well, it's not "Father Polanski" with a 13 year old boy. And if it were, the details, and the very dynamic of the case, would be quite different no matter what. That's what it means by every case being different
13 y.o alone with an adult, given drugs and alchohol, had sexual acts perpetrated upon them despite pleas to stop and asking to go home.....
When those are the facts, it really doesn't matter whether the perp is a priest or a film director or a truck driver frankly....It's called sexual abuse of a child no matter who does it.
There was a movie back about 20 years ago. Yes, it was a fictional account, but bear with me.
It was called "Private Lessons", and it entailed a boy of about the age of 12 or 13 having sex with a adult woman.
No one raised a fuss over THAT movie. Why is that?
