I didn’t read the whole article, but it appears to me that Feldman is talking about something with which he has personal experience. I’m not certain how that morphs into the political bloviating of the stars you mentioned.

I’m sure most people in Hollywood are afraid to step up

Can't blame them. Unless they are mega-stars who can call their own shots, Hollywood conservatives stay in the shadows, too.

I’ve worked on TV shows with child actors, and lots of parents ask me for advice about getting their kids into show business. I always answer: Do you let your kid play in the middle of the busiest street in the neighborhood? Drink alcohol? Play with Daddy’s gun?

Then go ahead and put your kid to work in Hollywood and hope everything will be okay.

Why parents would willingly give up their children’s childhood is beyond me. And I haven’t yet known a successful child actor who wasn’t supporting the whole family, including Daddy, and therefore calling the shots. One parent always ends up leaving (the other has to be on set to keep the gravy train rolling).

Corey Feldman’s parents took the money and tossed their baby into a tiger cage. Then years later, hopelessly damaged, he blames the Los Angeles Zoo. Um, it’s a ZOO. And your parents put you there.

I guess it’s hard to hate your parents. They say even hookers love their pimps.

Sounds horrible...

The true villains are parents who neglect their children. It’s easier to target the predators than the parents who destroy the lives of their kids.

I did not know will geer was a pedophile. I knew he was gay ...

Almost a redundant statement - gays recruit and it is easier to recruit the young.

Jessel gave Judy Garland her stage name.....

Richie’s been dead since 1997 and I don’t think he even knew he named the band.
Although, since Yo La Tengo has been around (formed in New Jersey) since 1984, it is possible.

As a gift to you, here is a great song and a very nice video to go with it:

You’re right. I take it back. My point was that this is an example of why we shouldn’t pay any attention to Hollywood types. They are almost all two-faced creeps.

This rings especially true if you think back to Hollywood’s rabid defense of roman polanski in his extradition hearings.

Especially memorable is the verbal effluvium excreted by that noted intellectual on “The View,” Whoopi Goodberg, who said that “it wasn’t rape rape.”

Rape, only rape, is apparently accepted, probably even encouraged in her Hollywood, at least if it’s directed (you’re welcome for the polanski pun) at children who are first fed booze then drugs.
