Mel has the right to say anything he wants - be it bad or good. People have the right to turn the channel - if they actually sit around and watch TV instead of doing something constructive. I don't care about the opinions of "celebrities" one iota. I wish they would not even make the news. Also, I don't think anyone should be surprised by Mel's rant. If his dad has the same opinion, then he was taught and or picked up his views from a very early age. We see this every day with many muslim children. They are taught to hate and kill jews and infidels from day one and they carry that into adulthood.

Can't blame Disney at all on this.

Since when did Disney give a flying rip about social behaviour? It's all about the money ... and Mel Gibson is a cash cow.

It's sad that Mel will pay a heavy price for his rant. The 60s crowd ('thought police') wants to regulate every word or thought that occurs to everyone. I remember a rhyme that I learned as a child that the newer generations need to adapt 'sticks and stones may break my bones but names can never harm me'. People just need to develop a thicker skin. If you don't like what someone is saying, change the channel.

After viewing the
Gay Day at Disney website, Disney has no moral high ground in which to spank anyone for seemingly questionable public displays.

If Mel could turn the project into a gay relationship between a Jewish victim and his/her Nazi guard, Disney would fall all over itself trying to get it back into production.

It was kinda dumb for these guys to make Mel a spokesman for this miniseries to begin with. It just highlights the controversy surrounding him.

Well... it serves him right! This man is still a CHILD, a lot of growing up to do! What an idiot he really is... He removed all doubts about the suspicions said about the movie and him.
He will learn..

But to hear the MSM, the Dixie Chicks are VICTIMS!!!
And have lost the right to FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!
I'm in business. If I make stupid comments to my clients, I lose business. Do I have that *right*, as an American, yes. I will not go to jail. But I do not have the right to not have consequences for those comments (ie: ticking off valuable clients).
That being said, I still love Mel Gibson's work.
