never too late

the disturbing release of roman polanski begs lot of questions , if a certain amount of time elapses should we forgive and forget , i dont think so . recently an unsolved murder has been cleared up in bath , dna records have cleared up unsolved mysteries elsewhere. in polanski's case it seems that media pressure from people who should know better in including a french minister of state have claimed there are mitigating cicumstances because he is great film maker . would a great dentist or a great street sweeper get the same clemency -i think not. he did what he did the same as caravaggio did what he did , once we become less than equal under the law we begin to unpick the fabric of our civilisation
