Trash Mel Gibson Sinks Deeper!

Posted by Wm. Steven Humphrey on July 31 at 10:09 AM

As reported Saturday, Mel Gibson is in a heapin’ helpin’ of TROUBLE after being pulled over drunk as a skunk, and allegedly screaming obscenities and anti-Semitic remarks. Now, even more details are emerging: According to TMZ.com, not only was Gibson’s arrest report doctored to remove the offending language, he was allegedly stopped twice before in recent years—and allowed to leave without being arrested or even ticketed.
Also, during his most recent arrest the cop’s supervisor ordered him to remove any language from the report that would show Gibson was being “belligerent.” But according to TMZ.com:

At one point at the Sheriff’s station, sources say Gibson was “jumping like a monkey” on a steel cage and told the arresting deputy, “I’m not going to hurt you physically. I’m gonna hurt you. I’m gonna make you lose.”

Hmmf. That’s not belligerent. That’s me whenever I get low blood sugar.
Regardless, look for more trouble this Fall when Mel is supposed to release his newest film Apocalypto—whose studio is DISNEY? They CANNOT be happy about this.

He thinks that blowing a 0.12 is drunk enough to have NO IDEA WHAT HE'S SAYING. Sadly, people will believe him, because the mainstream media isn't reporting the anti-semitic remarks, just the drunkiness. Drunkiness + apology + rehab = sympathy and career boost.

I hope the "sheriff's office censors report" angle gets more play, at least. Effing scumbag.

Have we forgotten that Walt Disney was rumored to be one of the biggest anti-semites in Hollywood, in his day?

Re: the previous comment... Mel Gibson was born in the US, his family moved to Australia when he was a child.

People say this will hurt his career but the American public forgives and forgets quickly. Sweep it under the carpet, there will be a new celeb scandal shortly. The average person on the street won't even remember this a year from now (if they even heard about it when it happened).
