Give me a break, he is a man - not a saint. Im sure everyone we know and respect in life has some sort of skeleton in the closet that no one knows about - in the case of Mel we know everything about him because the media loves to beat the man up. What he did was wrong - and he should and will seek treatment - what more can you ask? What does the bible tell us? Everyone has a cross to bare in life? His cross is that he is an alcoholic and should try to rid himself of this.

If it was just the DUI thing that would be one thing. I would be a hypocrite if I said I have never driven over the limit, I have, though I do not any more. Fortunately I have never been stopped. But his outbursts, assault on a police officer(s) and anti-semitic rhetoric was inexcusable. That's the kind of stuff Sean Penn, Johnny Dope, Martin Sheen and others do. I expected a lot more out of Mel Gibson.
