I'm not all that upset about this whole thing mostly, I think, because I've been done with Mel Gibson for some time now. /cs

Take a look at the guy who just "resigned" from Wal-Mart.... take a look at what HE said..... looks like he and Mel made the same dumb choice to run with the mouth. A bad decision... that is all. I, for one, will see any movie of his in the future. I still like him. Glad he is getting some help for his problems. THAT is the difference. He is sorry.... I believe him.

I mean, why wasn't anyone in an uproar when jews like the other Mel... Brooks, was making blatant demeaning fun of christians, gays and other groups in his fully written and produced movies over the last 3 decades?? Talk about a society being one-sided!!!
