Today, Friday, Mel Gibson pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor spousal battery charge. Mr. Gibson, agreeing to a plea bargain, was given three years probation and ordered to attend 52 weeks of domestic violence counseling. He said he entered the plea of no contest because it is in the best interest of his children. He wanted to avoid a trial and have the whole sordid relationship that he had with his ex-girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva, dragged out again in public
Okay, Mel Gibson was in a bad relationship, with a woman, who allegedly tried to shake him down for money, and maybe she did, and maybe she didn't leak to the media, the so-called secret tapes of their conversations, conservations which were often one-sided ,with Mel Gibson behaving like a jerk. Maybe she is as much a jerk as he is? Maybe not?

But! Mel Gibson has a horrible temper and a trash mouth, add that to the fact that he admitted that he battered his girlfriend, all I can say is, that dude got off easy. Very easy. Maybe too easy.
But justice in America, is just that. In most cases, the rich gets just what they want, but if you don't have any money, justice is just one chunk of ice falling down on your head.
