I just said it was a distraction not a cover.
No more of a distraction than sports, the enron scandal, this forum, music, movies, drugs, etc.
End of discussion. |

And metal, solid point bud, the old it doesn't matter cause they're idiots. Glad we got two of our greatest thinkers on this one. As ogv said, nothing to see here. |

Can we get any other sources quoting the antisemitc remarks. Im actually genuinely interested in this, as I am sure a lot of people are that have been made aware of it. I would like to do an article for my school paper about Mel Gibson being an antisemite and what that means when he produces movies like the passion. |
There's an important American organisation (related to racism and prejudice) that, according the Brazilian radio, is already doing this research. If you can think of any, that's a good place to start.
I tried to look its name up on Wikipedia but I didn't find anything. |

As ogvh5150's numbers illustrate, yes, it was quite popular.
I was somewhat oblivious to the commotion and I can't tell you much about how the popular reaction was, except for the little I heard: some people have reportedly fainted during the exhibition of the film, others have started praying and worshipping God under the same circunstances (much to the annoyance of other viewers), and religious (and anti-religious) people everywhere started debating about the whole thing.
As a matter of fact, every year, during Easter, there are several theatrical plays of "A Paixão de Cristo" the "Via Crucis", so we're quite used to it here anyway. |

Target is the guy everyone in a forum loves to hate. He brings this upon himself; he may be a known cheater in a game forum, a conservative among liberals, a Windows guy among Mac enthusiasts, or even a man in a women's forum. Why Target places himself in such dicey situations is anyone's guess, but he seems genuinely oblivious to the danger. When Warriors unleash their collective fury upon him his usual reaction is "Hey, what did I do?" or "Why do you all hate me?" Target eventually gets the hint after a while and moves on. NOTE: Target often serves as a useful pressure valve for the forum's pent up hostilities. Therefore, if the current Target has been driven off or immobilized a new target will be quickly selected. CAUTION: Target is a favorite disguise of Troller amd Evil Clown.
