Default Re: Mel Gibson calls reporter an A$$ho&le on WGN-TV

I don't know about that so much. We all know that we could lose our lives behind the wheel of a car. That doesn't mean we should "take the heat or get out of the kitchen" when someone drives recklessly. They need to be called on it appropriately.

Mel didn't hit anyone, he said something to someone that was appropriate to their actions.

I don't really think what he did is even close to "an eye for an eye". I think what he did is simply calling the cards as they lay. Sort of like that line from "The Untouchables"...
