dROK83 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 I thought this guy couldn't stick his foot any further into his mouth, but he's done it. I guess more tapes were leaked showing just how deep Mel's hatred for Jews go. On top of that, phone conversations of him threatening to kill an ex-girlfriend have surfaced as well. You know, I've enjoyed many of his movies in the past, and think he is a great actor. But I would have a hard time supporting any recent movies of his, or purchasing any past movies. He should have to change his last name, so Gibson is only associated with quality made guitars, and not a drunk abusive racist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riverside Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Apparently he's as much of a moron as are a lot of folks who don't have the benefit of the spotlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grampa Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 These huge Hollywood egos have an ability to do some really stupid stuff. It's like they don't know that they are watched. Or that they can get away with anything because they are "loved" by their public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Bill Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Dude, this topic is a scream. I have seen headline similar to this: "Gibson's Racist Outburst." I click on the link to learn it is Mel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brundaddy Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Apparently he's as much of a moron as are a lot of folks who don't have the benefit of the spotlight. Yea tons of people do spout off on some racist bs. Of course, this doesn't give ol' Mel a pass, by any means. It should also be said that Mel did as much for the mullet as anybody. I don't know if this makes you love him more or hate him more. Mad Max and whatnot. Tinfoil hats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But saying stupid sh!t like that, with such force and conviction - if somebody records it.... One of the few actors who was not on my boycott list over the years, guess that's changed now. Putting money in their pockets is the best way to reward asinine celebrity behavior. I vote 'NO' with my wallet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstMeasure Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Whoopie still likes him, that must count for something. Maybe I'm a conscienceless consumer, but I really don't care if Mel is a Racist. I don't care that Bing Crosby beat his kids. I don't Care that Ozzie Nelson was a Merciless Task Master, I don't care that John Wayne was a Conservative, I don't Care that Bono is a Liberal, I generally don't care about celebrities personal lives. As long Mel is entertaining, I could care less about his shortcoming. I'm actually a little tired of expecting entertainers to be Roll Models, specially Roll Models for fully grown adults.

Riverside Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 That's exactly what I don't care about. It wasn't a moral judgment. If we had to get all righteous about everything and everybody, there'd be very little to enjoy. But he's still a moron for putting himself in the position to be talked about, if nothing else.

Cut off the money and their career will wither on the vine and die. Suits me just fine. Oh, and I do seem to recall everybody on the forum (and other forums too) coming out of the woodwork to assault, disparage, castigate and insult to their heart's content every time I mention Ted Nugent.
