Greetings...

The latest controversy involving Mel Gibson has generated plenty of
media attention and of course, opinions. Gibson is heard ranting
on the phone to his girlfriend and to say that his side of the conversation
was disgusting, hateful, mean and racist is an understatement. I don't
think there is anyone who could say the rants weren't shocking when
the first of many tapes were released. After hearing most of them,
I think I should add this word regarding Mel Gibson's vocal rant...

"allegedly"

I realize I will probably tick off some people with some of my questions
that popped in my head after the intial shock of hearing the tapes,
but believing everything you read or hear before all of the facts
are given isn't fair to the victim, no matter who the victim is...

What struck me as "odd" in the beginning was the calm, cool demeanor
or the woman that was being verbally attacked on the tapes. I don't
know about any of you, but I would blow my top within seconds of being
called the vile names that his girlfriend was called, and yet she remained
very calm and controlled. Too controlled if you ask me...

I always thought you had to notify the person on the other end of the
phone that you were recording them unless that has gone by the wayside
in an age of cell phones, text messages and video that capture any, and
everything you say or do...

She calmly accused him of physically abusing her while holding their
young daughter and again, she was pretty dang calm given the accusation.
I would like to see the police report of the incident in question which
would have the phsycial injuries she claims she received as a result of
his attack...

But wait...She never called the police even though she was supposedly in
danger and worried about her daughter's safety...

Listening to the lunatic, supposedly Gibson, actually made me hyper! The
guy was screaming, hyperventilating to the point it sounded like he
couldn't breathe because he was so enraged and I can honestly say I
don't think I have ever heard anyone scream and yell quite like that,
not that it doesn't happen, and yet, Oksana is in control so much, you
almost wonder if she's a robot, or...smiling during this...

She claims she didn't release the tapes and yet they are playing enough
to be on the top 10 list of recordings for the month. Radar online claims
they didn't pay for them and at this pont, all we have a claims from
every Tom, Dick and Harry and I'm just not buying a lot of it at this
point...

"Experts" have now come forward claiming the tapes have been altered and
edited to create the finished version. What was altered? What was edited?
Who's voice is it if it isn't Gibson's? After the initial release of the
shocking tapes, I believe there are now more questions than answers...

Gibson has had his share of bad press due to bad behavior. An anti-semitic
rant while drunk and his subsequent arrest caused an uproar that harmed
him in the court of public opinion. He survived that to a degree and
the majority of people forgave him. If these tapes prove to be legit,
he won't survive this professionally because of his racist remarks and
not so much the tirade against Oksana. You can disagree with me on that
part, but it's my opinion...

Gibson hooked up with a woman much younger than himself who wanted to
be a star. She previously was involved with Timothy Dalton, an actor
and if I'm not mistaken, a former James Bond years ago. They have a
12-year-old son together. You can make the determination in your own
mind if a word in the tapes are valid. The word is Golddigger. Gibson
gives new meaning to the phrase, "There's no fool like an old fool"...

Gibson has been quiet regarding this mess and it's, no doubt, on the
advice of his lawyers while they are trying to figure this all out...

I guess the bottom line for me is this...

IF these tapes are fake, falsified, and edited to manipulate the public and
the authorities into believing that Gibson is a violent, racist, monster,
I think Oksana should be brought up on charges. If it is proven that it
is Gibson on the tapes and they haven't been altered in any manner, then
he should be arrested for battery if it has been proven that he did, in
fact, hit her and break two of her teeth. The other thing that should
happen if it has been proven that he is the monster on the tape, WE,
the public, as well as Hollywood itself, need to "shun" him and hit him
where it hurts...

The wallet...

So, what is your opinion of the hooplah revolving around Mel Gibson and
his baby mama?

The archives are working a little better, but I'm still going to post on the

blogs until I'm sure everything is running smoothly. The link for
