Mel Gives Cops Hell (alleged anti-semitic slurs)

NY Daily News ^

The Passion of Mad.

[Brilliant]

I'm surprised Hollywood doesn't like Mel, given the fact that they think he's anti-Semitic.

[BlessedBeGod]

Here's a thread about it from a different source, which has gotten over 500 replies: Mel Gibson Arrested for DUI

TMZ is a gossip website (along the lines of the National Enquirer), and its "reporting" is suspicious, to say the least.

Sorry. I don't believe this. Is there a tape of Mel saying this stuff?

[MineralMan]

Sounds like a mean drunk, does Mel. Some folks get mellow when they drink. Others turn into ugly folks.

It's always been my theory that alcohol just accentuates the normal traits of a person.

I don't think I'll invite Mel over for dinner anytime soon.

[coconutt2000]

How disappointing.

[MineralMan]

"Sorry. I don't believe this. Is there a tape of Mel saying this stuff?"

And why can't you believe that some rich Hollywood type would turn out to be a butthead when he's arrested for being a drunken driver?

Do you really think that "The Passion of the Christ" covers over anything else this Hollywood smartass does?

Get over it. Mel's just like the rest of them, apparently. Watch his movies, but don't deify the man.

I'm going to adopt a wait-and-see on this one.

F-----g Jews. The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world," Mee's report quotes him as saying.

"Are you a Jew?" Gibson asked the deputy, according to the report.

Geez. Is it sure they got the right person in Seattle?

[gondramB]

I think Mel Gibson is a little nutty....

but I have a hard time believing this part

>>"F-----g Jews. The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world," Mee's report quotes him as saying.

"Are you a Jew?" Gibson asked the deputy, according to the report.

The actor also berated the deputy, threatening, "You motherf----r. I'm going to f--- you," according to Mee's report. <<

Another inebriated week from hollywood. Also, David Hasselhoff: Too drunk to fly

[originalbuckeye]

No. I just think that he's not that stupid. With all the press about his father's antisemitism I just think he'd be more careful than this. I don't think he's a god, I just thought he was smarter than to let go with this tirade.

[SpaceBar]

He could plead insanity. Worked earlier this week.

[Riverman94610]

And then theres-You mother*******,I'm going to f*** you"
Maybe Mel should get a role in the Brokeback Mountain sequel!

[trumandogz]

Sounds to me like a Hollywood Vendetta against Gibson for the hundreds of millions of dollars he made from Passion of the Christ.

In the end, these false witnesses will get what they deserve.

[Halls]

I don't either. UNless there is actual proof I don't believe some hollywood gossip site. I do not believe MEL hates Jews and I think this is rediculous. Until there is proof I won't believe any of it.

Trouble is that drink often brings out the worst in people, and that appears to be true for Mel Gibson, too.

Maybe he shares his father's opinions about Jews, but keeps his mouth shut most of the time. Get a few drinks in him, though, and that stuff might just come out.

As someone says, time will tell, perhaps, but it would not surprise me if this were true.

".....Hollywood smartass ...." Do you have something to back this up?

[GeronL]

So he is only an alleged anti-semite? So he hasn't yet joined 90% of the people and governments on Earth?
