"Polanski faces months in prison as he fights extradition; Lawyer wants him released during process" by Henry Chu, Los Angeles Times | September 30, 2009
ZURICH - .... Public reaction has been mixed, with many Europeans aghast at support for a fugitive who fled the United States in 1978 in the face of charges that he plied a 13-year-old girl with alcohol and drugs and then had sex with her....
Yeah, THAT has BOTHERED ME a LOT!!!
This SYMPATHY for a PERVERT really bugs me!

NOT EVERYONE is SUBJECT to SUCH SYMPATHY:
"Sex offenders set up camp in Ga.; Outpost serves as last resort for homeless parolees" by Greg Bluestein, Associated Press | September 29, 2009
MARIETTA, Ga. - A small group of homeless sex offenders have set up camp in a dense woods behind a suburban Atlanta office park, directed there by probation officers who say it’s a place of last resort for those with nowhere else to go.
It is not just them, America!

Looking MORE and MORE like PALESTINE every day (still got a loooooooong way to go, 'murkn)!!!
Nine sex offenders live in tents surrounding a makeshift fire pit in the trees behind a towering “no trespassing’’ sign, waiting out their probation sentences as they face numerous living restrictions under one of the nation’s toughest sex offender policies.
“It’s kind of like a mind-game, it’s like ‘Survivor,’ ’’ said William Hawkins, 34, adding that he was directed to the campsite two weeks ago after being released from prison for violating probation by failing to register as a sex offender in Georgia.
The muddy camp on the outskirts of prosperous Cobb County is an unintended consequence of Georgia law, which bans the state’s 16,000 sex offenders from living, working, or loitering within 1,000 feet of schools, churches, parks, and other spots where children gather.
It’s not the only place in Cobb County where offenders can live - there are hundreds of other sex offenders throughout the county living in compliance with the law. But Ahmed Holt, manager of the state’s sex offender administration unit, calls the camp a “last resort’’ for homeless offenders who can’t find another place to live that complies with the law.
He said probation officers direct them to the outpost if other options fail, such as transferring to another county or state or sending them to a relative’s place that meets the requirements. Homeless shelters and halfway houses are often not an option, he said, because of the restrictions that bar them from being near children.
Aren't you glad you have overreacted and advanced tyranny, 'murk?

Hey, we all love our kids -- except for some of the sickies crawling around the US (as well as government that sacrifices them upon the lies of empire).
Critics say it’s an example of how laws designed to keep Georgia’s children out of harm’s way create a hazard where penniless sex offenders live largely unsupervised at the government’s urging.
Well, AIN'T THAT a REAL KICK in the HEAD?
“The state needs to find a responsible way to deal with this problem,’’ said Sarah Geraghty, a lawyer with the Atlanta-based Southern Center for Human Rights who represents another man living in the camp. “Requiring people to live like animals in the woods is both inhumane and a terrible idea for public safety.’’
Hey, TELL THAT TO ISRAEL!!! And the Palestinians aren't even perverts!!!!
The outpost also illustrates the dilemma the law creates for homeless sex offenders, who unlike other homeless people, cannot take shelter in a church or curl up in a park because they are barred from both....
But they can run away to Switzerland or wherever.
The tent city is similar to one in south Florida, where dozens of sex offenders moved under a remote bridge because it was among the few places that complied with local ordinances. Florida officials say the sex offenders found the bridge on their own, while some residents of the camp dispute that....

"Sex offenders ordered out of tent city" by Associated Press | September 30, 2009
MARIETTA, Ga. - Nine homeless sex offenders scrambled to find housing yesterday after they were kicked out of a makeshift tent city behind a suburban Atlanta office park where state officials had told them to live.
Cobb County Sheriff Neil Warren said state officials ordered the offenders to leave Monday night after the Associated Press reported details of the arrangement....
Wow! That SURE IS GETTING ACTION, AmeriKan MSM!!
Maybe NEXT TIME you can STOP a WAR!!!!
The encampment is an unintended consequence of a Georgia law that bans the state’s 16,000 sex offenders from living, working, or loitering within 1,000 feet of schools, churches, parks, and other spots where children gather.
Was the closing of the camp unintended, too, AP?
How about letting these guys shack up with one of you editors?
Would prove your money is where your mouth is.

Of course, we more or less let perverts roam free here in "liberal" Massachusetts.

And there are a whole pile more to which I'm not getting.
Of course, the Zionist newspapers never miss a chance to bury the hatchet in the Catholics for their transgressions. I only take notice because I'm a good Christian and none of that ever happened in my church.
