OK maybe I'm just not being sensitive enough here. I guess if I was a Jew I'd be pretty upset at what Mel said...whatever that was. I can't read the cop's notes at all.

I don't know how you got copies of those notes Moses. If they're not available to the public then you've got some scary connections. I'm impressed. Remind me not to piss you off anymore.

Surprise, surprise! Church doesn't cure alcoholism. Welcome to the real world Mel!

The guy has been dry for so long with nothing but faith to sustain him, its a wonder he hasn't killed anyone by now, much less offended someone. I would probably be pissed off at everyone within reach if I were itching for drink all day with thoughts of hellfire and damnation keeping me from doing it. Poor guy, hope he gets some help.

I find it outrageously funny that the typical righties on the board are defending him (because he's a "good Christian", I suppose) while castigating the typical lefties--who are speaking out about his anti-Semitic comments.

Meanwhile, in other threads, the lefties are being castigated as anti-Semitic for not supporting Israel 100%...

No one here is defending him because he is a good Christian. I couldn't care less what his religion is or isn't. The dude was stoned drunk and was a blabbering idiot. No excuses. He did publicly apologize though even if it wasn't necessary. What he said to the cops shouldn't have been made public. Now we know he is bigoted deep down but couldn't you tell that from his Christ movie?

Besides, who isn't the slightest bit bigoted deep down?

The real question is why are we (on anyone) actually discussing this? Every day across the country people are drunk and arrested and say stupid dumb stuff. Do we ever hear about that? Only when it's someone of (supposed) importance do we hear about it.

This was a private matter between Gibson and the police. This was not a public forum in the town square. The police are the ones that should have gotten an apology. And it appears from the link Nostatic posted, that they got one.

Unoriginal and unfunny. Mr. Wilson is mostly too nasty for my tastes anyway, but that one was just dull.

Should we be talking about this? I really don't think we should be talking about this.

Thank God Rodeo finally posted a bigger picture of that avatar. I could have sworn it was a fireman.

Made me wonder about certain persuasions...making your avatar a fireman with the thumbs up...

A (female) friend at work has this video game called Hamtaro.

Apparently the point of the game is to collect rocks...which the hamsters take to the Rub-Rub room.

(I'm not making this up.)

Not really a contradiction. Read, for example, the book "Hitler's Pope" about Pius XII.
