In the aftermath of his drunken driving, Jew-bashing weekend in Malibu, Mel Gibson has already tried to correct his behavior in the midst of reports of his suicidal thoughts and anti-Semitic past. Now, Mad Mel has decided it's time to reach out to the Jewish community, but this time without reaching with a rope or flaming torch and instead with compassion.
“There is no excuse, nor should there be any tolerance, for anyone who thinks or expresses any kind of anti-Semitic remark,” Gibson said in the statement. "Please know from my heart that I am not an anti-Semite. I am not a bigot. Hatred of any kind goes against my faith.”
Wait a second. Isn't Mel a Catholic? Isn't that one of their founding doctrines?
Mel has now checked himself into rehab and is looking for help from the Jewish community during his time of need, most likely so he won't get blacklisted and have to make Lethal Weapon 5 to pay the bills. Because that would suck, and nobody wants to see that.
