Open Letter to Mel Gibson

Dear Mr. Gibson,

I used to be a big fan. I love vigilante cop justice (in fiction movies), and therefore loved the Lethal Weapon movies. I love white-on-white violence in the quest for freedom, and therefore loved The Patriot and Braveheart. And Signs remains one of my all-time favorite movies, which is amazing given the lack of gratuitous violence. Then a movie star made a good movie about my hero, Jesus, and it wasn't even sacrilegious. That's awesome!

But then you went weirdo on me. Apocolypso? Drunk anti-Semitic rants? Some crazy goatee that made you look like Colonel Sanders on crack? What's wrong with you, Mel?

Then, your wife files for divorce. It's always sad to see a marriage fail, but if you're married to Colonel Sanders on crack, you've gotta do what you've gotta do. I understand. And of course, once she's to that point, there's not much left up to you--you just have to take the flogging.

But then, you knock up a lingerie model? I would be totally supportive if it was Adriana Lima or something. I mean, I'd totally forget the drunk Apocolypso crack rant. But, this girl you're with...her face is four plastic surgeries from looking as good as Joan Rivers. Vomit.

Get some help or something, Mel.

Yours truly,

mike

And you call yourself a Christian?.. why don't you try to imitate your hero.. Jesus... He will be ashamed of you for being so mean... I like your other articles, but I dislike when you get so judgemental on vain matters!!!!!!!
