So who here has been drunk? probably everybody in this forum. Who has done something stupid while drunk? again, probably everybody in this forum. So i ask you, why is everybody still pissed about Mel Gibson. Honestly, people make anti-semitic remarks all the time, ive seen them in the forums before. The man was drunk and he uttered 1 anti-semitic thing. He appoligized twice. But why are all the news people still talking about the Gibson Scandal? Why cant we just let it drop and let the man get back to his life?

I've never drank in my life. ;) There goes you're theory. But everyone has said something stupid one time or another in their life. And I think the Mel Gibson thing is really overblown.

Remember that movie he made? Remember that holocaust mini-series he was going to make?

If all Gibson did was make Lethal Weapon movies, I'd agree with you totally.

Although I've said plenty of anti-Islamic things, I've never uttered, written, or hummed anything remotely anti-Semitic (that is, anti-Jewish).

Even when drunk or high.

Frankly, I don't care if he is anti-Semitic.

This is still news because nothing else is happening in Hollywood that is considered to be more interesting, other than whatever's happening with Lindsay Lohan. I want to know why that news story wont die, either.

since when is the jesus christ film anti-semetic?

appently from tom leherer(wrong spelling) its ok to be anti-semetic.
"the protestants hate the catholics,
and the catholic hate the protestants.
the hindus hates the muslims,
and everybody hates the jews!"
from national brotherhood week.
great song everyone should download it.

i dont if this song by borat counts as anti-jewish cause he is jewish.
in my country there is problem.
"in my country there is problem,
and the problem is the jew.
he takes everybodies money,
and he dont give it back to you."

i think ali-g in america is banned in america, not sure. i would imagine it would cause the show is all about how americans are morons.

what did mel say?
i think at the moment its ok to be anti-semetic cause of what going on at the moment, and there are alot of zionists out there.

nothing is banned in america. At least not T.V. wise, and as long as its not showing live rapes or anything, thats illegal. Stations might not show it because no self respecting american would watch a show that rips them up.

Because he has been hiding his antisemitism for so long.
Ali-G is on HBO, along with alot of the other shows that no advertiser would support.

Because he has been hiding his antisemitism for so long.
So why do you object so strenuously to my not hiding my anti-Islamic sentiments?

I'd object strongly if you decided to film a light-hearted Islamic romantic comedy. You're just a guy with opinions that I don't like with every right to voice those opinions. Mel Gibson has a right too but he's not immune to us finding him to be a hypocrite.

It is one thing to say something vaguely anti-semetic and poorly thought out while drunk. It takes a very anti-semetic person to say "Fucking Jews… Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world." That takes some intense dislike, not simple stereotyping.

Well, I'm not a film producer, writer, or director, and not an actor, so I guess we're safe.

Yeah, we're cool.

1) You're right. Modern society is way to focused on celebrity exploits.

2) There's a difference between getting drunk and making inappropriate JOKES to your friends who KNOW you're just saying something for shock value that you don't really believe AND saying something inappropriate to the cops WHEN YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY NOT JOKING.

THE JEWS ARE EVIL BASTARDS TRYING TO CONTROL OUR MINDS AND CONTAMINATE OUR BODILY FLUIDS WITH FLOURINATED WATER!!




Of course, that was all faked.

1) You're right. Modern society is way to focused on celebrity exploits.

Yes.

I don't give a flying fuck what Barbara Streisand thinks, even though she has a website, and ostensibly is not drinking when she posts.

So why should I care what Mel Gibson thinks?

Or any other star (Martin Sheen, in particular)?

ali-g is jewish and he pretends to be a muslim whos job it is to hut jewish people, so i think supose to be taking the piss out muslims than jews.

fucking funny show though, its funny how when he did it in england and ireland that people got that he was a joke but people actually thought he was serious in us. just shows how stupid they are.

for yanks that dont understand, europeans view you as stupidest people on earth.

Why?

Because it's the next best thing to having a pic of Mel saluting the swastika. It's 'juicy' to the media types, and thus $$$ to the media types.

Social relevance is an afterthought.

Same here. I can't drink alcohol. Mel's story makes me laugh my ass off! :p

Yes.

It is equally as bad to automatically discount what someone says just because they are a celebrity as it is to hang on theor every exploit just because they are a celebrity.

I care what PEOPLE THINK if what they think is compelling and well thought out.
