I dont need a reason to be racist.
Anyway, from my understanding of black people, rape doesnt actually exist in their minds, which is why they do it then say they didnt.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20091006/people_nm/us_polanski Switzerland denied a request to release film director Roman Polanski, who was arrested in September after fleeing sentencing for a decades-old sex charge, a spokesman said on Tuesday.
Polanski pleaded guilty to having sex with a 13-year-old girl in 1977 but fled the United States on the eve of his 1978 sentencing because he believed a judge might overrule his plea and put him in jail for 50 years.
"In our view, there is still a very high risk that he will flee and that a release on bail or other measures after a release cannot guarantee Polanski's presence in the extradition procedure," Federal Office of Justice spokesman Folco Galli said.
The justice office asked a Swiss Penal Court to reject Polanski's appeal to be released, Galli said.
whomod said: I generally don't like it when people decide to play by the rules against people who don't play by the rules. It tends to put you immediately at a disadvantage and IMO is a sign of true weakness. This is true both in politics and on the internet." Our Friendly Neighborhood Ray-man said: "no, the doctor's right. besides, he has seniority."

I'd laugh but I worry there are people who actually run those awards who might think inviting him would be a good way to protest his arrest.

10 to 1 odds they start dredging up the Sharon Tate murder and say Polanski was still distraught and Manson should be blamed.

United Press International: - People.com said Monday Polanski had been transferred from prison to a hospital in Zurich Friday to undergo tests for an undisclosed medical condition. He reportedly was expected to stay at the facility for several days.
The magazine's Web site said the ailment is a pre-existing condition that cannot be treated while Polanski is behind bars.
The Swiss newspaper Blick said Polanski was also admitted to the hospital for X-rays on a previous occasion since his arrest.
"His general condition is no longer satisfactory," People.com quoted Polanski's lawyer, Herve Temime, as saying in a radio interview. "But the situation isn't easy for any prisoners, even less so for a man the age of Polanski. One has to be attentive."
His escape gland is all swollen and he needs a guiltectomy.

Swiss defend tipping U.S. to Polanski's arrival- Swiss officials tipped off the United States and set in motion the arrest of director Roman Polanski last month in his decades-old child sex case, according to documents obtained by the Associated Press. On Wednesday, a top Swiss official defended the move.
Justice Ministry spokesman Folco Galli said the e-mails — obtained in Los Angeles by the AP under a public records request — showed that Swiss officials followed proper police procedure when a wanted individual is expected in Switzerland.
"An arrest is a big operation," Galli told the AP. "If we know a wanted individual is coming, we always ask if the arrest warrant is valid."
According to the e-mails, the Swiss ministry sent an urgent fax to the U.S. Office of International Affairs on Sept. 22 stating Polanski was traveling to Zurich. The director was to be feted at a film festival, and Swiss officials wanted to know if the U.S. would be submitting a request for his arrest as he was the subject of an international law enforcement "Red Notice."
"The Americans immediately confirmed that was the case," Galli said.
As a result, Switzerland was required by treaty to apprehend Polanski, he said.
Galli also addressed the nagging question of why authorities decided to go after Polanski now, even though the 76-year-old filmmaker has been a frequent visitor to Switzerland, where he owns an Alpine chalet. Unlike his previous visits, Polanski's appearance was widely advertised and that told authorities when and where he would arrive.
It took little sleuthing to figure out Polanski would be in Zurich — the film festival had a website promoting its upcoming tribute to the director of Rosemary's Baby,Chinatown and The Pianist.
But several Swiss politicians and political commentators have argued that Switzerland may have cooperated too energetically, and that recent U.S.-Swiss troubles over wealthy American tax cheats and Swiss banks may have provided motivation for the arrest.
Swiss authorities have adamantly rejected that suggestion.
"We have 20,000 warrant requests each year," Galli said, adding that this was the first time officials had precise details on the director's arrival and an official American request to arrest him.
After receiving the tip, U.S. federal officials alerted the Los Angeles district attorney's office, which immediately began drafting an arrest warrant. E-mails show U.S. authorities learned on Sept. 23 that Polanski was in Austria but officials doubted they could assemble an arrest warrant before Polanski had moved on to Switzerland.
Polanski was arrested three days later as he arrived in Zurich to receive a lifetime achievement award. He has been battling extradition ever since and on Tuesday suffered a serious setback when Switzerland's top criminal court rejected his appeal to be released from prison, citing the "high" risk that the director would try to flee again.
Polanski's offers of bail, house arrest and electronic monitoring failed to sway the Swiss tribunal. Even his chalet in the luxury resort of Gstaad was brushed aside as insufficient collateral to guard against Polanski fleeing the country, as the court noted that "the appellant has already once in 1978 eluded American criminal proceedings by traveling to Europe."
A Sept. 25 e-mail from the Office of International Affairs to the Los Angeles district attorney's office shows U.S. authorities seemed confident that Polanski would not be released.
"Generally, Switzerland does not release fugitives sought for extradition," the e-mail states. "The default in Switzerland is that a fugitive will be detained until s/he is either extradited or determined by the Swiss Federal Supreme Court to be non-extraditable."
Laura Sweeney, a spokeswoman with the U.S. Department of Justice, said she could not comment on any of the events leading up to Switzerland's fax to the United States.
"We don't comment on matters of extradition unless and until an individual is on U.S. soil," Sweeney said.
Los Angeles district attorney spokeswoman Sandi Gibbons said it was not unusual for her office to receive information on fugitives' whereabouts, but she declined to comment further.
Polanski's lawyer, Herve Temime, also refused to discuss what Swiss initiation of the arrest might mean for his client's attempts to be release.
But Peter Cosandey, a former Zurich prosecutor, said the revelation doesn't aid Polanski's case.
"This is normal procedure," Cosandey told the AP. "This also happened to me as prosecutor. The guy is traveling somewhere. You're asked, 'Are you looking for him. Do you still want to arrest him."'
Dieter Jann, another ex-district attorney, agreed.
"This changes absolutely nothing," he said. "It's absolutely normal for countries to exchange tips on wanted people and to invite each other to take action. If it wasn't Polanski, everyone would think this is right."
Polanski was accused of plying a 13-year-old girl with champagne and part of a Quaalude pill during a modeling shoot in 1977 and raping her. He was initially indicted on six felony counts, including rape by use of drugs, child molesting and sodomy.
He pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of unlawful sexual intercourse and fled amid a legal dispute over the length of his sentence.
Polanski has until Oct. 29 to appeal the decision on his release. He also can continue attempts to persuade the Swiss Justice Ministry to release him. More court proceedings are expected after Washington files its formal extradition request, which it has until Nov. 25 to submit.
Legal experts said no path offered Polanski much hope for a speedy release from jail.
It is not clear how much time in jail Polanski faces now, either in Switzerland or in the United States. With appeals, the extradition process in Switzerland could take months. In the United States, Polanski fled before sentencing was complete and is expected to face additional penalties for jumping bail.

Roman Polanski's Lawyers Say Calling Him a "Child Rapist" Is All About Politics- Lawyers for Roman Polanski said Tuesday he should be sentenced in absentia to time served and accused the district attorney of playing politics with the case.
In a legal brief filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, the attorneys urged a full hearing with witnesses testifying about allegations of official misconduct in the handling of Polanski's 32-year-old sex case.
Attorneys Chad Hummell and Bart Dalton accused prosecutors of misleading the Los Angeles court as well as Swiss authorities weighing whether to extradite Polanski to the United States.
"Politics seems to be interfering with the just administration of the law . . ." the lawyers said.

Man allegedly spikes drink, sexually assaults 13-year-old- A Rochester man pleaded not guilty today to charges that he spiked the drink of a 13-year-old girl with a painkiller so he could sexually assault her.
An indictment charges Calvin Cobb, 45, with second-degree assault and second-degree assault as a sexually motivated felony. An indictment alleges that he placed hydrocodone in the girl’s fruit-flavored drink, rendering her unconscious before he fondled her.
Why haven't Harrison Ford, Whoopi Goldberg and the rest of Hollywood jumped to this guy's defense?
