PALM BEACH, FLORIDA: During a high-profile event at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday, December 10, actor director Mel Gibson made a chilling statement, causing many to question the rhetoric within the conservative circles supporting President-elect Donald Trump.
While addressing attendees at a soiree hosted by the QAnon-affiliated nonprofit America’s Future, Gibson declared that he would "kill someone" if one of his children were ever trafficked.

Mel Gibson's remarks at Mar-a-Lago soiree echo QAnon narratives
Mel Gibson, the Catholic actor and director, addressed the audience saying, “I got nine kids. If one of them got stolen or trafficked, I’d have to kill someone.”
Gibson, known for his outspoken views and controversial statements, was addressing a crowd that included prominent figures like retired Lt Gen Michael Flynn who has reshaped America’s Future into a platform for promoting conspiracy theories, including those linked to QAnon, Daily Beast reported.
Flynn, along with other speakers, has played a significant role in pushing narratives about a secret cabal of pedophiles supposedly controlling global institutions.
Last year, Gibson executive produced 'Sound of Freedom', a thriller starring Jim Caviezel, a known Anon conspiracist. During Tuesday night, December 10, speech at Trump's club, he praised Flynn exposing “wolves in sheep’s clothing that prey upon our young.”
In addition to Gibson — who arrived in a polo shirt, shorts, and Crocs before changing into a more appropriate suit and tie — other attendees included British comedian-turned-conspiracy theorist Russell Brand, musician Kid Rock, Tucker Carlson, and former Trump adviser Roger Stone.
Trump was listed as an “invited honored guest” and was seen alongside Flynn before he briefly addressed attendees, accompanied by Flynn, Carlson, and Kid Rock, whom he called “great people.”

A third commentator remarked, "I have always liked one out in Hollyweird, and that’s Mel Gibson. He says what ANY father would say if that unfortunate incident would happen to any of our children. So if the Dem or Loony Left is looking to make this into a big thing, then we’ll, they don’t care much about their children."

"What Dad doesn’t agree with this?" one quesioned.
A person praised Gibson saying, "I’m so glad he’s bringing attention to child trafficking. I believe Trump will make every effort to protect our children."
