Two quotes immediately got my attention apart from other aspects of the article, although it wades into the typical U.S. hypocrisy.
These two quotes:
"... I honestly feel more offended by the public reaction than I do by the racist slur."
"As a Jew, I was more offended by the Passion of the Christ, than I am now by a drunken actor, driving under the influence and spewing racial slurs."
* How could Mel Gibson's comment be considered a "racist slur"?
