I have a new article up:
Child molesting goes mainstream
It’s appalling that pedophiles and lecherous old men who abuse children and steal their innocence have Hollywood elites petitioning for these crimes to be swept under the rug. Harvey Weinstein et al. are happy to take our children’s money to profit on the latest block buster, but don’t care anything about prosecuting criminals who prey on children.
I would boycott, but I only go to the movies about once a year to begin with!

Read the article. Well said.
Incredible.
I followed the Whoopi Goldberg link to a video of her reference to “rape rape” on The View.
She rather pompously lectures the other ‘panellist’ ( is that what they are?) about how important it is to know ‘exactly what happened’, so that ‘we know what we’re talking about here’. And then invents this new term of “rape rape”. As though that cleared up the confusion.
Outrageously, she then goes on to explain to provincial Yankee types, who may not be aware that the whole world isn’t shopping at Walmart and eating Tootsie rolls, that the rest of the world doesn’t see it the same way. Being an actress and all, she is better aquainted with the ‘rest of the world’ than you hill billy hicks.
She names ‘Europe’ as an example of these more (presumably) ‘progressive’ and enlightened attitudes.
Really? Does she really think that in Europe, drugging and sodomising ANYONE, let alone a 13 year old is not absolutely considered “rape”. And even “rape rape” too Whoopi.
But you know what? I’ll bet that if it was a US soldier in Gitmo who drugged and sodomised a female inmate, then that, THAT, would most certainly be “rape rape”.
Woops
I meant to say that I was pasting here my comment on your examiner piece over there.
Excellent article. This whole business really exposes the elitist ‘one law for us and another for the rest of you plebs’ attitude that prevails in celeb land.
