4 days and still no Mel Gibson topic here? What the hell.

Discuss.

[Rengori]

To be honest I don't care.

[Elite Lord Sigma]

Well, he was drunk, so I can understand him saying those things. Few people act normal when under the influence of alcohol.

[Madame Adequate]

He's manned up and admitted there's a problem with alcoholism. Whether the views expressed while drunk are real or not is neither here nor there.

[Cuchulainn]

No interest.

[Dreddz]

Meh, I knew he was anti-Jew after watching the Passion.

Its sad to see Mel go down this road, he was awesome back in his day. There needs to be a new Mad Max :D

[jrgen]

What did he say?

[Pauten]

Gibson is a fool.
He's anti British (see the biggest two loads of bull<img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"> ever...The Patriot and Braveheart) and now hes anti Jew which dosnt come as a suprise...I have not seen the Passion, nor do I want to at this point in time.

However we've all said things we didnt mean while drunk so I can sympathise with him here....Some of the more fantical Jews should get over themselves a little bit...

[DK]

Made various comments about it being the fault of the fucking Jews, asking the police officers if they were Jews, calling one of the female officers Sugartits, being generally threatening.

[Moon Rabbits]

I was gonna make this thread. :}

I always knew he was a nazi.

[lovehurts]

I was gonna make this thread. :}

I always knew he was a nazi.

He hates gays too and he intends on ruining the officers life it appears.

[-N-]

Who doesn't make fun of Jews? :confused:

[lovehurts]

Who doesn't make fun of Jews? :confused:

But he hates more people than that. Should I post a link?

[Hambone]

If Mel has a problem with Jewish people, he has a problem with me. Someone special to me is Jewish. I wonder if this thread is going to go to hell like my Lance Bass thread. *hides*

[Shoden]

Very original of him, too bad a celebrity being drunk and arrested has already been done, the Hasslehof incident was the best.

[Pauten]

...David Hasslehoff *shudders*

[Cuchulainn]

Anti-Muslim = OK
Anti-Semite = WRONG

Strange thing the modern world.

[Roto13]

Well, you have to expect tension to be high when it comes to Muslims in todays world. It'll drop again. Eventually.

[DeathKnight]

To be honest I don't care.

yeah, he can go to a jewish hell if you ask me.

[Mr. Graves]

He was drunk, and the media hasa field day and makes up labels for him, true or not, for something irresponsible. As for as I'm concerned, he can say whatever he wants.

[~*~Celes~*~]

According to the media, it's okay to be Anti-Muslim, but not okay to be Anti-Jewish? ?_? Oy vey...

[Roto13]

When was the last time a Jew crashed a plane into a building because the people in the building weren't Jews?

[~*~Celes~*~]

Good point.

[Roto13]

That doesn't mean it's ok to be anti-anything, but I can see where they're coming from.

Anti-Muslim = OK
Anti-Semite = WRONG

Strange thing the modern world.Eh.

I'm not a huge fan of Wikipedia but I feel this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semite) is a point that should be made.

[Madame Adequate]

Thanks Mr. Mojo, saved me from digging anything up on that. <3


Meh, I knew he was anti-Jew after watching the Passion.

How do you figure?

[Cuchulainn]

That's idiotic to the point of blind racism. Have a look at the Lebanon situation. Jews have blood on their hands too.

Not in North America, they don't. Please don't call me a racist, you ignorant fool. Rather, look three posts above you.

Semites killing Christ, torturing him? Who did like the Jews in that movie?

Stern said the same thing on Sirius. Just because he was drunk doesn't mean he lied about what he said about the Jews. His comments were so spontaneous and so irrelevant that it's hard to say that he didn't mean it.

[Cuchulainn]

calling me an ignorant fool doesn't make you any less wrong. I've seen the above & stand by what I said. Now calm your wee self down.

Well, excuse me for getting annoyed when some jagoff on the internet blindly calls me a racist.

[Psychotic]

roto, you seem like an intelligent guy, so I don't know why you're making personal attacks on people just a day after being EoEO banned for the same thing, 'cause it's not really the smart move.

How about the pair of you just leave each other alone?

Yeah, see, here's the thing about that: That's how it is in the Bible. The Passion didn't randomly make up stuff about how terrible and hateful the Jews were, it took it pretty much directly from the Bible.

Kinda funny considering the "What kind of drunk are you?" (http://forums.eyesonff.com/showthread.php?t=89772) thread in General Chat. As I said in another forum, the only thing that surprises me is that people are offended at something said... when he was drunk. Yeah, that's never happened. :rolleyes2 But I'm sure he was completely cognisant of his behavior and meant every word. (sarcasm intended)

http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2027:11-26;&version=31;I'm not challenging what it says in the Bible, cause I'm not expert on the Bible. I'm just saying where one could get the notion of how Gibson's movie could have had anti-Semite remarks, and this recent bashing of the Jews Mel Gibson said puts a different light on the real meaning of the movie possibly.

Of course this is all speculation, but do you honestly think, out of all the things to talk about while being drunk, Gibson just suddenly decided to pull out of his ass of why he hated the Jews?

No, he probably is anti-Jew, but not because of the movie. If there's a problem with The Passion, it's not because of Gibson, it's because of the source material. That's all I'm saying here; The Passion can't be used to show Gibson to be anti-Jewish.

first of all u need to calm yourself ... if u said that to me i would back hand you . and second we can all have our own opinion, and you don't have to agree !

Mel gibson is non existant to me . If he hates jews power to him but if you ignore something and turn your back on it ... you'll take away its power and he will disappear.
hopefully for real.

I know i am being a huge prick right now, so sorry.

Accusations of racism aren't an opinion, dear. I don't care if he agrees with me on the topic or not, but that was uncalled for and ignorant, much like your "back-hand" comment.

[Fuego]

if you came at me like that i would totaly take you apart ... regarless if someone accuses you of whatever . I don't know you so i can't vouch that your not a racist.
and there wasn't any acusation implyed it was merely a statement . At least thats what i saw from a third person point of view.
My advice anger management ... and don't call me dear ... its very condescending IMO

Edit *** when you point the finger at some one you have three pointing right back at yourself.

[Roto13]

That was the point. Now, drop the tough-guy-on-the-internet crap.

[Fuego]

no i am not tough ... but you are seriously pissing me off with the pathetic martyr routine ! No one accused you of anything and if you took offense then maybe you really are a bigot !
and who do you think you are ? i pitty you ... because that mouth of yours will get you into some trouble in the future, and nobody or anything other than what you deserve will transpire.

[Lilliputian Hitcher]

Lol @ internet.

Just out of interest, is this as far as they went in the movie or did they have Jews eating babies as well? Because that seems to be about the only thing that I could think of that would cause such a ridiculous amount of backlash.

Well, that and people overreacting.

[Fuego]

I think the heat made them all just a little crazy :p esp with no sun block :)
and i don't remember much of the movie ... maybe cause 80% of it was just flogging and killing etc.
but i have a hard time thinking of it as like a majority of the jewish people in that time being purposefully malicious. but if maybe say they were just the poor jews and promised food ... or some sort of motivation, i could definately see that. hunger makes you do crazy things >.<

[Sephex]

Everybody's wrong.

It was a power situation. There was a very specific group of Jews who saw him as a threat to their power and even went so far as to break Judaic law in order to permenantly remove him. A group. A small, elitist, group. That's it. There were far more Jews that supported him... that's what made him a threat. (all according to the Bible) From what I heard the movie reflected that. Nothing more or less.

[Cloudstrife4003]

I knew he made the passion of the christ just for the money!!! LOL

[Fuego]

That makes sense. i have no trouble believing that because it's still going on today. (power struggles that is) except back then there weren't any atomic weapons ... we have far worse now but could you imagine if Judas has an H-bomb ... but i digress.
Back then things were completely different. i have no problem believing that.
As for the movie, i really think it was just depressing to witness.(as was the real life situation -that just goes without saying-) when i left the theatre alot of people were pretty green. i was in shock ... i mean, wow. i am still at a loss for words to describe, not to mention i blocked alot of it out.
