Melvi

Thursday, July 15, 2010




I am already tired of hearing the Mel Gibson tapes. Only because he sounds like such a heaving psychopath. It's disturbing to hear. Whether or not she was bating him isn't the issue. His problems with drinking and racist tirades are well documented but domestic violence? That will be an all-time low if proven. He basically admitted it already. Her dentist and son are testifying to witnessing some of the fights. What is so surprising is that in a current poll, 50% of Americans will continue to see his movies - if he has a career left. It's time he gets some serious help and put an end to his alcohol use.

On to Levi and Bristol. Anytime a family can find its way back together is something that I am all for. Maybe Levi realized that he is really just a small town guy and not the Hollywood type who enjoyed those hangers-on that he was attracting. Maybe they've matured some. They've had to with all of the media attention surrounding them, welcomed or not. Whatever the reasons, their family deserves a shot at happiness. I hope they are mature enough to work it out.

I can understand The Palin's hesitation, but forgiveness is possible. Just take last night's ESPY awards for example, there was an inspiring story about forgiveness on the Thomas and Becker families and that is some major forgiveness. It has to be one of the hardest things to forgive.


Go here for that fantastic story. It's 14 minutes you don't want to miss.



What do you think?

  1. I loved the Thomas/Becker story. I wouldn't have seen it otherwise. Thanks Laura Lynn.

  2. That was a moving piece about Ed Thomas - but Becker was insane - so I can't equate Becker with Bristol's Levi. Who could?

    But you're right, forgiveness is forgiveness, but Levi would have to prove himself to me first before I'd trust him after he publicly said ulgy and hurtful things about his soon to be mother-in-law that obviously weren't true, i.e. she didn't want her special child. Naw, it's going to be a rough Christmas for everyone at the Palin's this year and it's Levi's fault...but he sure is cute!

  4. I hope those kids can make it. I have a feeling he is not going to get the open arms treatment from Todd and Sarah.

  5. I haven't been following much of any of this at all. I'm going to have to do some catching up if I can. However, if this young couple can pull it off and make it work, WONDERFUL! Sarah's just going to have to support. It's not worth your child walking away from the family.

  6. I agree with you, enough with Mel already. He had a good career and should just retire. I think he's a bad influence and a huge disappointment to all his fans.

  7. I used to love Mel Gibson. And then he got all weird and crazy. Maybe he always has been. Believe it or not, I never did hear the tapes.

    As for Levi and Bristol...well I guess I am out of loop on that one altogether. Haha. But yes, forgiveness is possible.
