Not sure if this is true or not but i heard Seagal is the only non-japanese person to own land in Japan. The Japanese apparently have a policy that forbids foreign ownership of any of their land. Seagal, however, is held in such high esteem in the martial arts world that the allowed the rule to be bent so that he could own a small piece of land to build a dojo or something on.

Nah, I dont HATE Gibson... I just think hes an asshole. Another one of those Hollywood "tough guys" like Steven Seagal, Chuck Norris, Schwarzeneger... ect.
He does make good movies tho. Mad Max, Braveheart, Passion... All classics.
