Wait one second...he's a celebrity...and along with the riches comes the responsibility. He just didn't make a fool of himself, if true, he made racist remarks that confirm what people have whispered about him for years. I'm surprised so many here are so willing to discount this. If it were another celebrity who made such outrageous anti-Christian remarks, the fur would be flying. Hey, life won't come to an end...but he's a controversial figure, by his own doing...he's fair game...sorry.

Hildy, You are right. Gibson, due to celebrity, is fair game.

No matter that he's rich, or famous, he said some things under the influence..something I've done myself. I've never had reason to say, or wanted to say, anything antisemitic, but I've told my husband a few choice words..

If everything I've said while intoxicated were taken at face value, I'd hate to see what my life would be.

Give Mel a break. We are willing to do it for Katrina Freeloaders, Illegal Aliens, Congressmen, the Vatican, Koffe Annan..geez! Mel is just an actor..and a person.

A person with faults and GOOD points as well.
