I can understand why Gibson wouldn't want to be booed and why he's not going, but as a conservative who dislikes Hollywood, it would've been good for our cause to see them screw up by booing Gibson because it would've made people more aware of what Hollywood is all about.

No, I disagree. It's better than Mel didn't go to the stupid Oscars - then more people would've tuned in and boosted the show's ratings.

By Mel not going will guarantee another steep decline in viewership for the Academy Awards.

Mel doesn't have to sully himself to appear before his angry, hate-filled, hypocritical peers. The Passion's box office take alone after tonights Oscar presentation is answer enough to his hedonistic, shallow, limousine liberal, cash-loving critics.

I was about to post something similar.

That act would have changed my disgust with Hollywood to outrage.

I've not boycotted Hollywood but I am choosey as to who gets my dollar.
