Morgue and MADD for Mel?
Morgue and MADD for Mel?

August 3, 2006

<snipped>

It is just one of a number of shock sentences dished out to drink driving offenders in California.Gibson could also be forced to sit down and listen to the harrowing stories of members of the community group, Mums Against Drunk Driving (MADD), who recount how their children were killed in alcohol-related crashes.

The Australian-raised Oscar winner was formally charged by the Los Angeles County District Attorney on Wednesday with three offences, including driving with a blood alcohol content over the legal limit of .08 per cent.

The penalty Gibson might have to pay for the anti-Jewish comments he is alleged to have made when arrested could be more severe than anything the justice system might dish out.

But Gibson, who partied with tourists into the early hours of last Friday at Malibu restaurant Moonshadows before being pulled over by a sheriff's deputy, faces a maximum sentence of six months in an LA County prison.

Two of LA's best criminal lawyers agreed it was unlikely Gibson would be jailed if convicted.

That the WCTU refugees at MADD will be dropping hints to him about contributions, thirteen to the dozen.

6. MADD
Wasn't that the org that pushed for the random 'show-me-your-papers' highway stops? Gave us the Supreme Court ruling allowing all this unconstitutional drug war crap.

7. Mel's bodyguard is an Israeli
"Mel Gibson may have a problem with Jews — they’re responsible for all the wars, they’ve inflated the number of dead in the Holocaust, etc.

But Gibson likes one Jewish person a lot. His personal bodyguard for more than a decade turns out to be an Israeli."
