Sarah Silverman for a start, she’s done black face and is an open racist, sexist Christophobic pig, but her targets are mostly white people so it’s all OK. Going by current standards of love and tolerance in Hollywood Mel definitely should get a free pass.

Himm, I'm so glad you commented, since I used to work a little in the industry and was very much aware of what of Mel had done for RDJr. As someone who had an addict for a brother, I know first hand how incredibly difficult it is to tolerate or help someone with an addiction, so I knew Mel had to be a genuinely good and generous person to have stood by RDJr through the worst of his habit, which is why I've always thought this whole situation with his shady wife is very strange. As a woman, I certainly don't condone hitting one's wife, but I've found her behavior to be questionable and I've had no sympathy for her - I've thought all along it was to promote her own career. So I've never believed all the garbage circulating about Mel Gibson and this situation. It's nice to know there's validity to my belief.<br /><br />I'm a commoner these days and have told countless people what I've posted here. Unfortunately, they all think I'm crazy. I wish you and Mel only the best, though. Thanks again for sharing.KatDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149236212982493278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-71234962974310704882011-03-19T22:26:11.011-07:002011-03-19T22:26:11.011-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.KatDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149236212982493278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-63915822202034022782011-03-19T21:47:39.902-07:002011-03-19T21:47:39.902-07:00Loyalty aside I am no longer a fan of hers.Loyalty aside I am no longer a fan of hers.Stephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01011193070506506028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-74907817498528745152011-03-18T19:52:23.972-07:002011-03-18T19:52:23.972-07:00Thank you so very much for your comments Himmmmm. ...Thank you so very much for your comments Himmmmm. I am so very glad that Mel Gibson has friends like Jodie Foster and in some way you. It is also heartening to see that he is the type that will go to the wall for people as well.<br />I have firmly believed there is much more to the situation with him than we any know.<br />I hope you won't mind if I will send you healing thoughts and positive energies. May you have many days of creativity.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08334912133776442596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-59505728079458154122011-03-18T16:36:36.010-07:002011-03-18T16:36:36.010-07:00Himmmmm - your commentary is both fascinating and ...Himmmmm - your commentary is both fascinating and insightful.

Thanks for doing it and thanks for standing up for people that are railroaded (to me it is just that).<br /><br /><br />Mel might have his weaknesses, but without those weaknesses and him getting frustrated here or there, he wouldn't be the actor/director he is today. Jodie wouldn't be as dynamite as she is today.<br /><br />I'd like to hear what Mel had to do with batman :-).<br /><br />Thanks.<br />Lee<br />azlee56@yahoo.comazleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05383069442403436409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-27723147248465991952011-03-18T09:39:29.038-07:002011-03-18T09:39:29.038-07:00Thank you Himmmm for the insight.

Working with someone - or enjoying their work - <b>doesn't mean you condone their personal wrongdoings or opinions</b>. If anything it shows that you have the intelligence and capability to separate the work (the 'art') from the person.<br /><br />Also, to Himmmm, let me join those thanking you for your invaluable insight!Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08111079664849982528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-85503156624963196412011-03-17T18:12:23.385-07:002011-03-17T18:12:23.385-07:00Thank you, Himmmm--the insight into various people...Thank <i>you</i>, Himmmm--the insight into various people you've known does help bring home the fact that celebrities are real live human beings, too (not that we ever doubted that, but sometimes it's hard to remember when one only sees certain aspects of theirs). Loyalty is a rare trait these days in all circles, not just showbiz, and it's refreshing to hear that some people do in fact still have it. (I'm guessing that just because one is still a loyal friend who defends another publicly doesn't mean that one wouldn't have a word with a friend over the friend's misbehavior--while one might not want to say anything publicly, privately is another matter, and we just don't know what goes on between people in private.) Anyway, welcome back, and don't be stranger, you hear? *hug*Robin the Mad Photographerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05766675938768012882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-54343253209641674722011-03-17T17:27:24.551-07:002011-03-17T17:27:24.551-07:00Aww shucks, thanks guys!

(as he stands with hands in pockets and kicks rocks on the ground).<br /><br />I assure you that while I lead an interesting life - and work with many interesting folks - I'm just like each of you. We all strive, love, dream, and lose just the same. I'm not especially famous - but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night.<br /> <br />Seriously - thanks for the well wishes and consideration. It's not lost on me that absolute strangers can muster care and empathy to another stranger. You guys never fail to prove what's best about us all. It's called humanity. (Though a lil snark is fun now and then).<br /><br />I'll not be a stranger - I promise. 'Til then? My hat in hand - I bow to you all. Be safe, and smile a little. No matter how bad your worries, debts, or pressures? That sun will rise tomorrow.

You are writing from a perspective that i think a lot of people should consider and learn from. Most people who have commented about the Gibson/Grigorieva situation have done so without knowing all of the facts.<br /><br />Also, i think i can say that consistent CDAN readers have missed your comments in the last year. Under the circumstances, it's perfectly understandable. I hope that you have peace in your life now.elspethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07717650711615098837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-81401075124513864252011-03-17T16:00:18.721-07:002011-03-17T16:00:18.721-07:00Lol HARDLol HARDRocketQueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14591968302290881877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-37114174835505845812011-03-17T15:59:55.598-07:002011-03-17T15:59:55.598-07:00Amazing post Himmmm.
