Swayze comes out in support of Gibson

Patrick Swayze is the latest celebrity to support Mel Gibson, after the actor's recent arrest.

Talking to GMTV, Swayze branded Gibson a "wonderful human being" and insisted, "he is not anti-Semitic".

Gibson has been criticised for racist remarks he reportedly made when arrested for drink driving, but Swayze says things have gotten out of hand: "Talent deserves to be honoured. Hands deserve to be slapped if you do something stupid as well, but don't take it too far."
