Rip Torn was talkative after his arraignment today on 5 criminal charges -- problem is ... it wasn't English.
Torn shouted "Pardon" and "Con permiso" at reporters as he hoofed it to his car after posting $100,000 bail. Torn was busted this weekend after he allegedly broke into a bank in Connecticut, while carrying a loaded gun in an intoxicated state -- and we're not talkin' Connecticut.
He'll be back in court February 17 -- where he'll likely plead not guilty ... according to his lawyer.

(Page 1 of 2)"Con permiso" means pardon in spanish, TMZ. At least he was polite, in both languages.
I love Jack Daniels, this is a hold up...
Where is Larry Sanders when you need him...
Hey now
hey now!
pardon / excuse me.
hardly the 'rip torn has lost the plot' scenario you're making it out to be.
although, what got him there in the first place was ;)
NOT GUILTY!!??? They got him on video, plenty of witnesses and he pleads "not guilty"??
Cut a deal with him....if he wants to plead "not guilty"....then make it double or nothing on the prison term if this case has to go to trial and he is convicted!!!
Stop wasting tax money!! Do your crime, do your time......dumbass.
Poor guy. He seems to have Alzheimer's on top of his alcohol problem.
Just put him in a safe home instead of prison. Isn't there anyone who can take care of him at age 78?
Thank God the great Geraldine Page was not alive to witness her husband's descent into madness.
9. This is why old people need to be put to sleep like animals when the start acting crazy. I hope he goes to prison and get filled up like a twinkie!Posted at 1:50PM on Feb 1st 2010 by Rips Torn Anus
If anyone who reads the above doesn't think we should give mental tests in order to VOTE, I give up. If this THING isn't SICK I don't know who is! No wonder this country is in such bad shape with SICKOS like this.
He was a "Men in Blacl" he probably speaks a multitude of alien languages.
Whether it is dementia or some kind of alcohol induced psychosis - the guy needs help. Hopefully, rehab will do him good. I just hope Drew Pinsky keeps his perverse mitts off.
Dodge,Duck,Dip,Dive and Dodge.....
He's like 80 going into rehab, that ought to be fun.
Ah, the wonderful joys of alcohol. Let this be a lesson to all you drunkards.
