Gibson's "fault" is that he didn't make this film Politically Correct. A PC version of the story would not offend anyone, be bloodless and sanitized, be careful of the feelings of various groups etc.

All this claptrap about the film not being historically accurate is BS. Read the contemporary accounts of how people were routinely treated at the time particularly condemned criminals. Gibson is likely more historically accurate than anything seen on the screen before.

As for complaints about the excess blood and violence--does anyone remember "Saving Private Ryan" or "Schindlers List"?

The hand-wringing jews and other liberal bozos would rather see a crucifixion by lethal injection.
