Wow, these Jews really think the world revolves around them. Why should every person care what or when your holidays are? Geez, get over yourselves. You slam a person for making a stupid comment during a drunken state, and yet you have Jewish performers making anti-Christian jabs every frickin chance they get. Leno does need to seek your approval on who he wants on his show. If you don’t like it, then go watch something else.

You’re like brats throwing a tantrum because Leno does not kiss you a**. Try ABC, Letterman. You’ll get all the love you want there.

obviously nick0987 is some sort of flack for the mel gibson camp. to not be able to see what an utter slap in the face it is to jews to have mg on the show on of all nights a jewsish holiday…!?! are you kidding me??? sadly, leno and the folks at nbc willingly sold their souls to get the big name..too bad.
i for one don’t watch mel gibson mov ies anymore and i don’t watch him when he’s on tv. that’s my right. and you are right, it is a reflection on my character. i’m proud of that. he’s a drunk. a racist. a bigot. and he has been , justt like his father raised him to be. and that’s ok. but nbc, should have known better.

Especially people who claim to be (warning) against a person because he is supposedly hateful, bigoted, self-righteous and rigid (and defends his right to be so no matter what disconcerting information may come his way), should not engage in such mentalities themselves. It casts doubt on their OWN character, emotional make up and reasonableness and makes one seriously doubt whether THEY can be trusted.

People should stop misrepresenting their personal opinion that MG is a hot-headed bigot as a rational fact. These are wrongful, prejudiced assumptions. First, one has to believe that people are never unfair, or that drunk people are never unfair, to consider the type of event that took place in 2006 proof that a person is a bigot. And that level ignorance would make one unfit to judge to begin with. Secondly, this incident was in reality a once in a lifetime event in over 50 years of life that shouldn’t be misrepresented as the opposite, a characteristic trait. Yet many abuse it that way. When people have to twist a point to make a point not only do they not have a point, they have cast doubt on their motives and/or ability to reason in a balanced way. And if making a number of hurtful remarks once in our entire life in an extreme set of circumstances would make us hateful, nasty human beings, not a lot of us could honestly claim to be decent, reliable and kindhearted anymore, including most of those attacking MG. Is it unlikely that a person would have taken cheap shots under the circumstances MG was in at the time? No. Who wouldn’t feel bullied if ever arrested, it’s an instinctive reaction to having our freedom taken away. And when are we most likely to take a cheap shot; when we feel bullied ourselves. Additionally, when is it most likely that we would give in to that type of emotion instead of reprimand ourselves; when our defenses are down, which is the case when we have consumed alcohol. For many of us it was completely clear that this is exactly what MG meant when he apologized and said it was the stupid ramblings of a drunkard. He felt attacked and bullied and took a cheap shot, he wasn’t expressing an inner felt truth on the contrary, he was being unfair, something he feels ashamed and appalled about. And as it never happened before of after, it was indeed out of character. For anyone who cares about being fair, who sets that as a normal standard in day-to-day life, crossing that line anyway is a legitimate reason to apologize, to take the unfair statement back and replace it with a fair one.
More and more people, fans and non-fans alike, have become increasingly alarmed by the amount of hatred and condemnation coming MG’s way based on this one time event. Contrary to MG, who misbehaved once and apologized for it, many of these people go on and on and show no remorse at all. The time that we are willing to take these continual attacks seriously is over. It is beginning to look a lot like bigotry itself. Whether MG is a bigot remains to be seen, many of those attacking him thowever are at least themselves infected with the disease they accuse him of having; a hateful, prejudiced attitude with no ability and/or willingness to deal with facts and emotions in a balanced and unbiased way.

He was trying WAY to hard to be funny. I didn’t laugh one time at anything he said. It would have been more interesting to me had he actually told the truth answering questions.

Seems Mel needs to spend time in the psych ward. A total nut job on Leno.

Plus Gibson is an anti-semite and to be on for Rosh Hashanah is poor taste! The Leno show every night is not going to make it.

The Mel Gibson segment was BAD! It was a waste of time!
