Petitions For Dummies

I was going to say something about the Polanski thing, but
silk_noir pretty much said what I was going to. I'll just add that I'm appalled by how many people whose work I respect are willing to go on record as saying rape is acceptable. (Many of the names in her post come from this petition; others have made some other public declaration of support for Polanski.) I don't care if you respect Polanski's work, you still have to acknowledge that he committed a heinous crime. People ought to think twice before putting their name to a document which endorses that.
