This article from the BBC is about how people are accusing Gibson of racism in the movie: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6216414.stm. Although he has done some bad things, Gibson went through a lot of effort consulting various Amerindian groups while making the film. He went through a lot of effort so that the movie wouldn't be racist.

"He went through a lot of effort so that the movie wouldn't be racist."

Wow! How many times did Michael Richards say sorry before his apology was accepted? He wasn't even drunk. But! He was heckled!

I blame the hecklers before condemning those who are pushed off balance because of the attacks of envy. Being a victim of envy is a terrible pressure. Imagine our our image upon all the gossip tabloids and daily barrage of accusations! How would we react?

This happens every time a movie with ANY sort of buzz hits the theaters. It's gotten to the point that if your movie appears on the radar of these sorts of fringe groups, you can be sure that everyone knows about your movie and that the marketing arm did its job.
