Mel Gibson? Back in the mainstream?
Mel has 9 children – 8 with his former wife and one from his new wife ex mistress).
Calling my critique 'hate speech' is really hyperbolic and uninformed – Gibson is a known drunk and anti-Semite.
How do I know about Mel Gibson? I READ. Rather than relying on man-crush sentiment, I READ. Does the average supermarket tabloid reader know the tenets of 'Opus Dei'?
Mel's father is a Holocaust denier, claiming that the Jewish population INCREASED under Hitler and according to Mel, his father has 'never lied to me'.
In his drunken speeding incident, He wined that he was victimized. Victimized? Odd, the normal person doesn't, between the first and second vodka, claim that the 'Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion were valid after all.
Mel is simply a weak, hateful person. He is given to furious tirades against homosexuals of the sort that makes one think he 'protests too much'.
An member of the arcane sub-group of Catholicism named 'Opus Dei' – a retrograde belief that denies the changes made by Pope John Paul, he had told interviewers that his then wife, the mother of his 8 children, is going to hell because she subscribes to the wrong Christian sect.
Defend someone else Mel Gibson is a really bad person. (Also look up more information so you can defend him if you will, with more intelligence – even O'Reilly bashed Mel as an anti-Semite).
Susan Mayhew, for a start he only has 8 children according to the press. And you are repeating "facts" reported in the media. How is the man a freak: crude, hateful and unrepentant? He accepted responsibility for his actions and has apologised several times!! This one and only event happened in 2006!! Why do you believe your hate-speech is justified and true? Do you know the man or do you just regurgitate what has been written about him.
WHY is Mel Gibson being included in this program. Gibson is a monster, an inveterate anti-Semite, an adulterer and a member of the freakish Opus Dei whose tenants include the subjugation of women.
Gibson's adultery has produced his NINTH child – the man is a freak: crude, hateful and unrepentant and should have been banned from civil society after his last drunken hate speech.
WHO thought that this was a good idea? There will be many of us who will pass this fiasco.
