137. If you remember the Movie "Crash, " you will remember that many of the characters have prejudices and sterotypes built in with them. I would not cast the stone unless we know that we are as hypocritical as the next person. And remember when you do cast the stone, be careful it does not land on you.

Just remember...

138. I haven't been able to watch a Mel movie in a long time, after hearing the things his father had to say. A holocaust denier of the worst sort, a vitriolic anti-semite. And Mel's Jesus movie was the most overrated piece of crap in history, and I wasn't pleased with it's anit-semetic overtones.

I cannot in will not in good conscience support an artist whose views are so revolting.

139. Mel Gibson is a brilliant artist and film maker and the patriarch of an incredible family. He is also very private. People who know the family know that this episode is an aberration and does not represent him. Yes, his words were hurtful, but so is the disease that triggered them. This one awful moment should not define the whole man. I only wish the press would balance their story and report he and his wife's incredible generosity both in monetary and personal contributions to so many world causes, individuals, and to their community. Their giving is done quietly and not for notice. Does that not count for something?

140. You are all sicker than Mell Gibson!!! Out of all i have heard on this stuff with Mr. Gibson...a lot of whiney stuff. Dosn't any one have the balls to face up to the fact that he was DRUNK and...BEHIND THE WHEEL OF A CAR!!!

141. I don't think anyone would have made such a big deal about this if the 'jew' word didn't come out. Why is it that no one can ever say something negative about jews? He voiced his personal frustration (probably booze and mental illness talking). If he criticised Christians it wouldn't of made the news.
Touchy, touchy. Get over yourselves.

142. So Baba WaWa (the world's foremost media whore) has condemned Mel. What a joke! Besides what about space cadet Pat O'Brien (all is forgiven with that loser..) Plus at least Mr. Gibson has the guts to apologize to those he's offended and take action for his problems. Yet he's being villified even more than real criminals like OJ and Wacko jacko....that's the Hollywood left for you!

143. Nobody put a gun to his head and made him drink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He is to blame for being a raging Alcoholic. If he wasn't so money hungry and desperate for power he would not have gone crazy from the blood of Jesus that he profited from!

WAKE UP you so called Christians! Your Idol is a hypocrite and all you can say is "don't cast stones" glass houses he's human, don't judge, then in the same breath you spout off your judgements and cast stones at only human Jews!

This thing gets WORSE everyday that is because he made the most SATANIC movie about Christ ever made and YOU SICK DILLUSIONAL people ate it up as Gospel and now THE LIGHT and the TRUTH has been shown to you and your TRYING TO SAVE FACE!

Forgive him.... so what its not a big deal blah blah IT IS A BIG DEAL and I will NEVER forgive him for all the souls he lead to hell and the BLASPHEMY against MY God! The Day I forgive him is the day he admits how satanic his movie is, yes it is about the movie Mel, it is!

Don't be decieved again thinking that Mel is not part of the Illuminati and Jewish Establishment he pretends to be against, he is part of the New World Order, HE admitted it on 20/20 with Diane Sawyer when he was talking about his LEFT HAND. And his movie Company logo IS AN ALL SEEING EYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

144. Entitlement, can we just break it down and blame it all on that, entitlement. It was revealed on Catherine Crier this evening that Mel had been stopped twice before by law enforcement for speeding. Neither of the incidents resulted in him receiving a citation, a ticket, or a warning. In one of the incidents he remained on his cell phone the entire time the officer was speaking with him, the officer ultimately let him go without even having a conversation of any note with him. These are only the incidents that ard known; have there been others? So a person of his "stature" feels entitled. If he has known since his early adult life that he is an alcoholic then he knows that he has to get life-long support from those organizations and facilities, public and private, that offer those services to those who are battling the disease of alcoholism. It's not like he can't afford it. His apology to the Jewish community seems like the status quo rhetoric from a PR firm. His request that the community assist him in his healing is a bit over the top. His attitude toward Jews is something he must wrestle with on his own, he has to look at the "man in the mirror". I hope that they respectfully decline assistance to assist him to heal because the whole move seems like a damage control manuever. This moment is just revealing to Mel that there are some things that he has to work out for himself. The public should feel lucky that he was taken off the street before he killed someone or himself.

145. I think this whole story on Mel Gibson is blown way out of porportions. Geez, the guy is apologizing profusly, and you all keep hammmering away at him. First of all he's entiltled to make a mistake. He can't be condemmed for a comment in a drunken state. Is thius the only IMPORTANT news in the world??? Let it go and let the man make up for his mistake. How many of you are bigots???

146. Mr. Gibson has a chemical dependency problem. There won't be a real resolution until he shuts down his press machinery, and commits to and continues treatment. There are bigger and more important issues to deal with than one middle age, rich beyond belief caucasion male....Enough is enough, if you're real Mr. Gibson, do the real and right thing. Shut the press down, get back to health, and work on fixing your racist behaviors out of the public/press eye; it can and should be done.

147. This recent tirade of Mel's is bad enough but what he said on T.V. a while back ---I can't remember the program-really made me go ballistic. He said that unless the mass was in Latin "Transubstantiation" would not occur----how crazy is that? Boy he sure has a cock-eyed idea of what Jesus was about-- LOVE THY NEIGHBOR-I don't think so! Check this out.

148. Nick C.--You oughta know Cassidy--the 12 Steps are your entry to 'The Road'. When they told me to hit the road back in '51, I took that advice at face value and skipped the Steps. Oh, woe is me! Now I can only watch from high above as fools like Gibson tiptoe blindly down the trail I blazed.
