Today on "Don't help me compadre": Woody Allen signs petition for the release of Roman Polanski

Everybody knows Roman Polanski was recently arrested in Switzerland for the charges of statutory rape in the USA, while he is being detained there he faces the possibility of extradition to the States. Now, several members of the filmmaking industry have made a petition demanding the release of Polansk, stating that "It seems inadmissible to them that an international cultural event, paying homage to one of the greatest contemporary filmmakers, is used by the police to apprehend him", then they added "The arrest of Roman Polanski in a neutral country, where he assumed he could travel without hindrance...opens the way for actions of which no one can know the effects".

One of said petitioners is Woody Allen.

I'm gonna let that sink for a moment.

Woody Allen? Seriously? With his history, he's probably the most unfit person to plea for the freedom of Polanski. Which won't stop him though.

I understand they're situations are different, kind of, still it doesn't help either.

Then again, the whole outrage from the filmmaking community confuses me very much, isn't Roman Polanski technically guilty of everything he is being charged of? Shouldn't he pay his dues? Or because of his talent he should get a free pass?
