Why do I suspect that even this will fail to make an impression on certain posters?

Well, you got that right.

This speculation provided here has zero value in a court of law and less in this discussion.

I'm beginning to get much more interested in why certain folks are so invested in trashing Mel Gibson, particularly relating that trashing to The Passion Of The Christ, than I am in what he did or didn't say when he was arrested for driving drunk several weeks ago.  And remember, he was DRUNK.  That means, by definition, he isn't in control of what he does and says.  Or does that concept escape you?

What is the agenda here that so many are so emotionally invested in? 

Don't give me the "I know" crap.  Provide something, anything, that can be taken into a court of law.

What is so difficult about that concept?

Or don't you believe in the rule of law?

Actually, I really do like Mel Gibson and his work.

I respect the man enough to accept the PUBLIC APOLOGY he gave for his statements.

ps. The irony of seeing this statement on Free Republic (a website which was essentially founded on the murder of Vince Foster and the rape of Juanita Brodrick) to be absolutely delicious.

I haven't followed all your exchanges here, but is it your contention that Mel Gibson DID NOT make anti Semitic remarks when pulled over for drunk driving recently?
