Gibson Confirms

... and apologizes. Money quote:

"Gibson also apologized for what he said were "despicable" statements he made to the deputies who arrested him early Friday morning on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu. "I acted like a person completely out of control when I was arrested,"he said in a statement issued by his publicist. "I disgraced myself and my family with my behavior and for that I am truly sorry. I have battled with the disease of alcoholism for all of my adult life and profoundly regret my horrific relapse."

So the question now is: how many drunks immediately start ranting about Jews when they are arrested for DUI? What conceivable relevance does the statement

"F*****g Jews... The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world."

have to do with anything? The only rational inference is that Gibson is an extreme anti-Semite, as his porn movie demonstrated, and as his refusal to disown his own father's deranged anti-Semitism proved.
