If you look to the right of this text, you’ll probably see Mel Gibson. Not ‘Lethal Weapon’ Mel Gibson, maybe more like ‘Signs’ Mel Gibson or Osama Bin Mel Gibson. Mel Gibson hasn’t been exactly sane the last few years, and why should he be? It’s not like they’re about to make ‘Bird on a Wire 2’ anytime soon, but still. Is it just me or did Mel Gibson seem destined to be on the radar of the crazy police, or as we call them here in 2010, the media?
I don’t think Mel Gibson ever really had a chance. Don’t get me wrong; he definitely made it easy, what with his anti-Semitic rhetoric and his ‘I’ll burn you alive’ death tapes. But, even Alec Baldwin has a ‘You stupid bitch’ tape, and I’d be fairly sure that Alec is one of the saner Baldwin’s. I’d bet that Kim Basinger would make most men that frustrated. Still, no excuses for crazies, this isn’t the nineties.
How long until we hear the insane tapes of a drunken Adam Sandler saying “Don’t you know who I am? We control Hollywood!” Black people say that sort of thing in Philadelphia (when former mayor John Street had said, “We run this city!” He wasn’t referring to the democrats), Jewish people in Hollywood, not so much. I wouldn’t exactly be clamoring to take credit for running anything in California right now, nor Philadelphia for that matter.
Perhaps, and I’m just spit-balling here, but maybe there is way too much blame and credit being given and taken to races or groups of people. Maybe the Jews don’t control everything in Hollywood; maybe Mel Gibson is just a crazy Kiwi who shouldn’t even be famous anymore. Maybe Tom Cruise is right and we all have aliens living inside of us, and L. Ron Hubbard wasn’t just a sub-par science fiction writer that created a fairytale world that has become a staple in Hollywood exclusion. OR, MAYBE THESE PEOPLE ARE ALL CRAZY!!!
Does anyone have anything better to do then fight over religion, land, and women? History will tell us that; No, they don’t. Since the dawn of man that’s pretty much it, and a lot of times they’re all intertwined together, thus Mel Gibson. He is an avid Christian that allegedly hates Jews (probably several other sects of people we don’t have recorded audio for as well). He has an ex that he had to give almost half a billion dollars and a lot of land. And oh yeah he wants to burn women alive! Whilst I’d assume that to be an idle threat, it’s still pretty serious.
‘Lethal Weapon 2’ is still one of my favorite movies (“Diplomatic immunity.” “It’s just been revoked!”), it’s a real classic, right up there with ‘Die Hard’ and ‘Predator’. But hopefully, this will be the beginning of the end of Mel Gibson. I don’t want a comeback or a resurrection or forgiveness nor do I want to hear anymore about his tapes. Who even records that kind of stuff? The plaintiff, that’s who! So Mel, stop it already, get on some lithium or whatever you need, stop calling your ex-wife and please don’t make ‘Lethal Weapon 5’. Go play golf, or write your own bible so the next celebrity generation is filled with Gibsonites that believe there are tiny messages in ‘Conspiracy Theory’ and ‘Man Without a Face’ that triangulate the origin of existence. And keep the beard cause it makes you look how people such as yourself should look: Crazy. That’s what I think. – JL
