True, course if she did it smart, she wouldn't have to worry about a penalty either. No one has to do their own dirty work, they just need to use their brain. Stuff goes missing all the time... "'whoops now where did I put that recording of Mel, hmm... I just can't seem to find it... Oh my gosh, someone stole it and uploaded it to YouTube from a computer in some random Kinkos? How awful is that? No officer I had no idea, I only recorded him because he'd been threatening me, the mother of his baby can you even imagine my pain, and I just thought it would be good to have a record of that in case he decided to make good on any of his threats (**sniff, sniff, tears falling, lips pouting and looking pitiful, while batting eyelashes)." Yep that'd do it, fuck Mel.
That is pretty much what she's alleging, I think. She told TMZ she didn't release the tapes. Hopefully, they can't prove otherwise. So far she's been pretty smart about this. I hope she's smart enough to have done it the way you suggested.
I'm still thinking I didn't understand Soulthinker there, tho. I can't imagine anyone thinking this girl was the wrong one here.
I'm sorry to say that it really doesn't matter if his privacy was violated. Anyone who has heard the recording is going to think he's a straight up crazy bastard. Not a lot of people who are going to side with the crazy bastard, against the single Mom. And before someone mentions it, it has nothing to do with people being harsh on the man, if he was a woman he'd be getting just as much bad publicity. Drama sells, gender is irrelevant.
Yeah, this particular motherfucker is undefendable. Fuck him. Every day, it gets worse, too! So far, he hates Jewish people, Black Men, Hispanics, and Women. Am I the only one waiting to hear next week when he goes off on Asians? Come on. You just know he's got something against Asians, too. LOL. Also, I just heard that Gibson was alleging he didn't break her teeth, but her dentist took pictures and sent them to her lawyers. Ha! Bastard.
yeah i heard that update this morning on the news. mel has well and truly put himself in it & finally can be nailed for it. what kind of man hits a woman when she's holding their baby? he's a monster
Very true, but really, what kind of man hits a woman period when it's not a case of self-defense? I used to like Mel Gibson. I'm not one to usually let the media dictate whom I should or shouldn't like, but I think I'm going with the media here. As some suggested, I'm sure he'll sequester himself in some sort of anger management rehab until this all blows over. Something my mom keeps asking though, did he do that to his first wife? The one he has like 20 kids with and was married to for 30 years?? P.S. Not that I'm very religious or anything, but man, he makes Christians look bad. He certainly doesn't practice what he preaches.
LOL! I know! Which is one of the many reasons, I don't associate with any religion. Many, many religious people are complete and utter hypocrites. It's sad.
ST, I love you but C'MON! Mel made Mel look bad. She didnt make him look bad. Are you kidding?? You defend a lunatic that has a proven long history of anger issues AND racism - way before this chick even entered the scene. At that, you take a racists side before this woman?? Seriously?? He abused her physically, mentally and emotionally. Is she supposed to just take it? I have some reservations regarding the way she did it - but in NO way does that trump what Mel did. He needed no help in what he did,at some point you need proof. Dude has been walking around half-cocked for years .. it was only a matter of time - if it wasnt her - it would have been somebody else. Fuck him, he made the bed - now his racists ass can lay in it.
LOL! It may not have been a good way to get him, but I will defend her reasoning for wanting a record of those rants. I, myself, have sent several emails to friends and told them to keep them as a record just in case something happened to me. Because he is so famous, she chose to record him...but I don't disagree with her wanting undeniable proof in the off-chance he followed through on his threats.
you're the one with the silver tongue stud...why don't we record some of the conversations you've had :smt047
Oh C'mon R you saying people u now argue like that?? Man, I dont ever want to meet your friends then. HAHAHAH! That shiet was beyond sick.

Remember Ted Danson?
I like whoopi and agree with her. Mel isn't a racist. He is an asshole just like imus. They insult everyone and think it is not ok to do. Time for that mofo to go. edit: I wish someone had told me that I forgot to put in "not":smt091 but I meant to say it is not ok to insult people.
