Michael Savage on ‘Passion’
“How is it that the most vile films imaginable are being made with little or no protest from the very same organizations attacking Gibson’s artistic creation. Murder, Rape, Drug Usage - all standard fare in a theater near you. No protest about these vile works from these organizations who object to what appears to be 100% biblically correct.
Following the screening of his controversial film, Mr. Gibson asked me what I thought of it. I said, ‘Of course there are going to be those who are going to look to blame the Jewish people, but it is the Romans who flay Jesus nearly to death and who actually crucify him.’ I added, ‘Mel, what are people going to do, stop eating pasta!’ There was then much laughter all around the boardroom. But I repeat, are people to stop eating Italian food because of Pontius Pilate and the Roman sadists? It would be foolish to think so.”
