Jeffrey Wells: Defender of sexual predators

In case you had any doubt that liberalism is a sickness, not an ideology, please take the case of internet movie critic Jeffrey Wells as he sticks up for good old Roman Polanski:

Respect, compassion and admiration for 45 year-old Samantha Geiner, the unwilling and way-underage recipient of Roman Polanski's predatory lust 31 years ago, for standing up and telling the Los Angeles County district attorney's office where to go yesterday. Back off, enough already, stop your prosecutorial bullshit and bring this protracted case to an end.

Someone in the comments actually speaks truth to power about Polanski's crime:


PCP_Patriots says ...
The man should be in jail, period. What he did is pretty sick. No excuse and if he is not a criminal then he is mentally ill and should pay the price.



To which Mr Wells responds:

Jeffrey Wells says ...
Wells to PCP Patriots: That kind of talk could get you purged around these parts, fella. This is a Polanski-respecting site. Call Pirates a piece of shit, call Frantic a bore, call The Tenant a disappointment...whatever. Go to town. But try to show a modicum of respect for one of the cinema's greatest living artists. If you don't, you'll be tossed. My party, my rules.


After his Vinessa Shaw obsession, I wonder if Jeff has a little more in common with Polanski that we know about. Sometimes a picture tells a story, here's Jeffrey Wells' picture:

Nope, nothing creepy there!
