Quote: "Also, remember that the perception of the rest of the world is that Polanksi seduced a 13 year old Lolita, not that he drugged and raped a child, and even the victim seems to hint at that interpretation with her claims that Polanski has been punished enough and the issue needs to be dropped. The world sees the arrest and attempted extradition as a publicity-grabbing move on our part."
----------------------------- It's a good thing I can think for myself...otherwise, I'd care what the rest of the world thinks about this incident. I have no doubt real parents wherever they exist feel happier when people who think 13 year olds are appropriate sexual partners are incarcerated.
