Forget his Jewish remarks, focus on the fact that Mel Gibson is a serial drunk driver

With all this talk about what Mel Gibson said, people are missing the real point. He is a drunk driver who could have killed people. And this is surely not the first time he has driven drunk. Mel Gibson should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law, just like every other serial drunk driver in the US is. Forget about his anti-Semetic comments. We all already know he hates Jews. Just watch "The Passion of the Christ," which in my opinion is an outrageously anti-Semetic bloody snuff film, which I cannot even believe was not rated X because of the violence. And I like violent movies like "Resevior Dogs," "Sin City" etc... but "Passion" really crossed a line. I cannot believe this movie was shown to Catholic school children!

The real shadow sweep of the Atlantic Yards' towers

On www.southoxford.com I posted a recolored drawing from the ESDC Environmental Study of the shadow sweep of the proposed Atlantic Yards Development. Other drawings from the DEIS are also featured. If Bruce Ratner has his way, many local parks, historic structures and districts will be in shadow, as well as parts of historic Fort Greene Park. If the development goes through as planned, some areas near the yards will never get any sun ever.
