Has Mel Gibson Gone Insane???

And you have never made comments in your private life that if aired publicly wouldn't make you look like an A-hole?

Of course I have. But, I don't think I've told people they deserved to be hit by me because they have big boobs, get gang raped by "expletives", that I would put them in the rose garden and get away with it and they knew I could, that I should have hit them in the head with a baseball bat instead of whatever I did hit her with....ad nauseum.

And, and again this is all alleged, she started the recordings to get proof that he did this all the time. The implication is that he was saying this garbage all the time and she knew she would be able to get proof by recording her phone calls.

Seriously. Have you listened to the tape? And let's face facts, he was hitting her and it has been known for a while. There was only proof lacking.

People who defend domestic abusers are generally people to be viewed with suspicion...and whose spouses and children should be watched for marks.

45 The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.

Not saying he didn't say it, but I have to wonder what she did to get him started... and was the tape edited? or did it record for 24 hours a day?

I've heard that Russian women are on the slightly loonie side... Mel should have known this before becoming entangled.

All's Fair in Love and War... and the russian has slipped a tactical nuke in under his radar... all to get possession of their daughter, and certainly a huge child support payment.

Maybe he should renounce his conservative ways, and become an ultra-lib, and do Charlie Sheen's. High priced love rentals...

I don't feel sorry for his 'flagging career'... heard on NPR that he'd made hundreds of millions on the Passion of the Christ, no one wanted to deal with it, so he did it on his own, and reaped the rewards. Someone with hundreds of millions isn't hurting.

You make some good points.

The woman was setting him up and taping him just to get custody and be awarded large child support payments.

He should be financially secure having earned hundreds of millions of dollars. However, his racial tirades and other behavior behavior have alienated once loyal fans .

A comment or 3 yeah sure.

A screaming rant littered with profanity, death threats and telling someone they deserve to be raped that went on for many minutes and only degerated from jump? Never.

I think it's their business and not mine.

**Tiempo** · #27 07/13/10, 07:32 AM

I can't believe some of you people are defending him!!!!!!!!!

She said that he hit her in the face and broke two of her teeth while she was holding the baby, and he ADMITTED IT.

The guy is an animal and should be in prison. I suppose Nicole Simpson deserved it too?

springvalley · #28 07/13/10, 07:38 AM

Man has gone goofy, enough said, a man has no right to hit a woman, enough said.>Thanks Marc

Prismseed · #29 07/13/10, 07:50 AM

He's from Australia, the whole prison colony that grew into a nation. Not to say every aussie is broken but it isn't so surprising when they are.

Common Tator · #30 07/13/10, 08:59 AM

He was actually born in the states, and move to Australia at the age of 12.

Hey that's interesting! Thanks for the info Tator.

Aintlifegrand · #32 07/13/10, 12:48 PM

I for one am sick of these people's lives up in the news... as for him? i was done with him after his anti semitic rant...

ChristyACB · #33 07/13/10, 03:02 PM

Okay...a little more info and I truly hope this opens up the eyes of those defending this domestic abuser against a woman who "deserves it".

Keep in mind all this is "alleged", "apparently" and so on since it hasn't been through court yet.

This apparently had nothing to do with money. It, allegedly has everything to do with a restraining order.

She was getting beat to include two punches to the face hard enough to break off two teeth while she was holding their baby of a few months of age. Try to leave...he says he kill her and bury her in the yard and get away with it. She says she get the law...he says he'll use his money to take that child and she'll never see it with his money. She secretly calls a lawyer and guess what:

He's right. She has no proof and can't even get a restraining order.

She sticks a recorder on her phone and gets the proof.

She tells him she has the recording. Logically that means he can't kill her or take their child now.

He offers her 20 million to not release the tape. She releases the tape because it will help her get a restraining order, make it impossible for him to get away with killing her and gives proof from his own mouth that he was beating her, meaning he can't take the child.

Hmm....money grubbing? Not so much.

Deserved it? Because she didn't agree with him regarding an issue about the Nanny. Hardly think so.

Faking it? Ahh..not so much since he admits to battering her and threatens her repeatedly with beating and death during the phone.

Dad of the year? Nice slur on his own daughter there during the tape.

Let's just all agree that old Mel deserves no manly brotherly support here. He's clearly a troubled, violent and abusive person who needs a lot more than a slap on the wrist.

Why does anyone care

"On the other hand, maybe she did deserve to get smacked. We don't know how she was to live with. I have seen 2 women in my life that REALLY deserved a good punch to the face. I would never hit a woman but I would have been tempted to hit those two if I had to be around them much."
The man hit her and punched out two of her teeth while she was HOLDING THEIR BABY..what part of that is ok? What part of that did she deserve? Is that what you really think Poppy,,that she deserved to be punched out while holding their newborn baby?

So much Gibson could have done: WALKING AWAY, MOVING OUT, GETTING A DIVORCE, laying off the sauce, quitting the drugs, or counseling. No he chooses to beat up his wife and then threaten to KILL her and hopes she will be gang raped by Black men. (which insults black people as well..)

Setting him up? Uh no, she reported the incident when it happened and for whatever reason, Mr. Rage out of Control wasn't charged, now he is under investigation because of these tapes.

This is not the first time he has been in this sort of trouble. Now his agent has fired him and the Hollywood elite are pulling back. Seems one can beat the wife and survive it, but you just pull out that race card and it's all over..(sarcasm here).

I truly cannot believe that some people could justify that "perhaps she deserved it"..geez And what does Russian have to do with anything..she was his WIFE and she was afraid for her life.

Common Tator · #36 07/13/10, 03:31 PM

I didn't think anyone was defending him. Just making really, really bad, unfunny jokes.

Truth.

beccachow · #38 07/13/10, 04:17 PM

Christy, thank you for the backstory!

Hitting is bad enough, hitting while holding a baby...double no-no.

Or maybe she got fed up with being a punching bag and recorded it so she had proof to get OUT of there and to get him what he deserves. Yeesh.

Youve heard that Russian women are slightly loony ??? Maybe you agree with him that women that get raped, deserve it, too.

But why put it all on Gibson without knowing all the facts? Why didn't SHE WALK AWAY, MOVE OUT,
GET A DIVORCE ? Why was she living with him if that is the way he normally treated her? She is obviously pretty and had access to plenty of money and could have fled anywhere she wanted. I don't condone him hitting her at all, but it takes two to tango.
