Mel Gibson issued an apology Saturday morning after getting arrested for driving under the influence in Malibu, California. Apparently, Gibson was belligerent and out of control during incident, threatening the arresting officers and making several offensive remarks.
“The report says Gibson then launched into a barrage of anti-Semitic statements: ‘Fucking Jews… The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world.’ Gibson then asked the deputy, ‘Are you a Jew?’”
Best of all, though, was this:
“A law enforcement source says Gibson then noticed another female sergeant and yelled, ‘What do you think you’re looking at, sugar tits?’”
I think that’s kind of perfect. Who else can you picture, but Mel Gibson saying something like that? I mean, he’s used the term “sugar tits” in pretty much every one of his movies. Remember in Braveheart?
“Freedom, sugar tits!!!”
Or in Lethal Weapon:
“That’s a real badge. I’m a real cop. The Holocaust never happened. And this is a real gun, sugar tits.”
And, of course, he used the term in this line from his classic film Those Darn Jews!
“Darn those Jews, sugar tits!”
So it’s great to know that even when on a crazy drunken anti-Semitic tirade Gibson has a flair for the dramatic. It’s one thing to blame Jews for all that’s wrong with the world, but to blame Jews and use a classic cinematic line like “sugar tits.” That’s what makes him the A-list star we’d never ever invite over to watch Seinfeld. Bravo, Mel! Bravo!
