Mel Gibson rants and lack of "media" coverage

[Zebo]

I think Mel is getting a raw deal here. Hopefully he can bouce back after this blows over. I like Mel Gibson, I don't think he is racist, he has got a foul mouth thats for sure.

Anyone who hangs with brothas can get away with this. I know I used to in HS & College locker room. I go fishing with some guys from boyington which is a 95% black red neck town and you should here the shit we talk. Makes mel seem PC. Never been called racist except online talking shit about islam.

I think these quotes from the tapes - as presented by a group of trained kittens - really gets at the soul of Mel Gibson.

Remember this for the 2010 Ownage of The Year AT Contest.

Dave's vinegar thread still tops this by leaps and bounds.

Theres alot of media coverage on it, and he just called hispanics 'wetbacks' in one of his rants. I find them funny tbh, and kinda feel bad for the guy since his ex GF is soooooo calm on tape, and he is fuming mad...You just know that bitch was egging on him, getting him pissed off to the extreme before turning on her recording device and acting like a angel [to make it appear that Mel was being a Devil for no reason to her...suuure]. I bet she is a whore, and a gold digger. Doesnt excuse his comments, but at the same time it was a private conversation that she recorded to make him look bad, and make $$$ [hence the gold digger part is verified atleast].

Well unfortunately, I think P&N is usually excluded from the Ownage of the Year contest. I think a certain vinegar-purchasing nut would have a lock on it otherwise.

A link to what? I'm too lazy to search, but I remember that at least last year, they said "P&N threads can't be nominated."

The best coverage so far has been on the Howard Stern Show and the Bubba The Love Sponge show. Hilarious.

She's completely justified in recording the conversation, gold digger or not. Gibson was acting like a psycho on the phone and threatening to kill her. I find it interesting you refer to her as a bitch and a whore and accuse her of egging him on, like he's a victim here.

Right, and what did she say to piss him off, you dont even know. No one but him and her knows what she said before the recording began. She leaves that bit out, all we get to hear is him angry as all hell at her, and she is talking very calmly [obvious setup]. So yes im 100% positive she said nasty things to get him that mad, and then taped it. That makes her a bitch.

That doesnt mean I like Mel Gibson or think he is a nice character, but she is no better than he is to tape a conversation that is meant to be private. And if you think what she did is a'ok due to the threats, sorry but that is what the Police are for. Or the FBI. Airing thier dirty laundry in a public fashion such as selling the recordings to a media outlet [for a few million most likely] shows she was more interested in the publicity/money than protecting herself.

What did the police officer say to him to piss him off the last time his insane racist rant was recorded? You're probably an abusive person yourself if you think someone that behaves like this is a victim of other people manipulating him.

Seek help.

Who fucking cares !

Exactly what I was thinking. Anyone who defends Gibson is really just defending themselves in their own minds because they are also horrible, abusive people.

 

[sportage]

Yeah.. who cares.
FYI Charlton Heston did not part the red sea nor free the slaves.
Superman was said to stop a speeding bullet, except the one he put thru his own head.
Sandra Bullock looks sweet as whipped cream, but living with her may be another story.
So who really cares?

HomerJS... got it.

 

[Modelworks]

I think there has been too much coverage of it already. I really don't care what actors do in their personal life anymore than I care what some guy across town does.

 

[fantolay]

Why don't you call up a news station that ISN'T reporting on this (any station but Fox) and ask them why they aren't.

How the fuck should we know?

did your 'jump to conclusions mat' give you that pearl of wisdom?
