A judge has told a cooperative and respectful Mel Gibson his DUI nightmare that began in July of 2006 is now over. Although the actor still has another 18 months of probation, he has completed the requirements of his plea. The judge told Mel, "Now you're on your own," adding, "This will be the most difficult time for you, but you're well on your way to success."
The judge then wished Gibson good luck, adding there was no need for future progress reports.

oh some of you people and your whining are just pathetic. The Jewish society accepted his apology, so what does it matter to you? Have you met Mel Gibson or are you just going by what TMZ tells you? Yeah...get all your news from TMZ and then you can avoid the real world...
Most everyone says something racist at some point in their lives and for most people it doesn't follow them around forever. Gee...I said towel-head just today. Not drunk either.
Go figure

I'm Jewish and was never insulted by what he said. Seriously, doesn't EVERYBODY say stupid stuff when they've had too much to drink?
Well done, Mel,congratulations!:)

How long before he hits the booze again and good Dr. Gibson is replaced by bad Mr. Hyde? Some drunks gets all kissy and huggy when plastered -- but the booze only brings out bad Mel. 18 months of probation is a long time to go without a drink. And for Mel, one drink is too many and a dozen are not enough.
