It was reported, with pictures, last week he was boozing it up at one of his previews....I don't care about him, and I, too, am a recovering alcoholic. HOWEVER, I don't believe that you say things when you're drunk that are based on nothing. You just don't say, out of the blue, JEWS ARE THE REASON FOR ALL THE BAD THINGS IN THE WORLD if you don't believe it inside. It's preposterous to expect people to accept that defense. And as a recovering drunk, I think you'll understand where I'm coming from

I agree with you. My remarks were more directed at people who joke about recovering alcoholics.

Gibson apologized, and I think that's the end of story. Whether people want to acept his apology, then that is up to the individual. I've asked my Jewish friends what they think, and they slough it off. He said the Hassidic Jews hate his kind of Jew, (sort of like Catholics and Protestants I guess) so he couldn't care less if a Roan Catholic (Gibson) makes disparaging remarks to Jews in general.
