I have battled with the disease of alcoholism for all of my adult life and profoundly regret my horrific relapse." With regard to his anti-Jewish comments, Gibson said, "I said things that I do not believe to be true and which are despicable." He also apologized for "my belligerent behavior" and the way he treated the police officers.

I respect Mel for apologizing and taking full responsibility for his bevavior.

I give him props for apologizing, too. When will celebrities and politicians learn the fastest way to make something go away is to say "I'm sorry?" So good for him for stepping up and doing it.

(But am I still allowed to think he's a nutcase?)
