Sean Penn’s Son Went Full Mel Gibson — You Never Go Full Gibson

Sean Penn‘s 19-year-old son, Hopper, flipped out at a paparazzo (HMMM, I WONDER WHERE HE LEARNED THAT BEHAVIOR) yesterday while accompanying his dad to a doctor’s appointment. Mr. Penn’s son shoved the photographer and then shouted, “F-ck this fool, you’re a f-cking f–got!” and “Shut up, you f-cking n–ger!” This did not please the black photographer. Older Penn was already well into the building when this happened.

TMZ (amazingly, this DIDN’T happen to one of their own photographers), has the rest of the story.

Cops happened to be nearby at the time and heard the commotion. Law enforcement sources tell us, officers asked what happened … but the photog said it was just a verbal argument, and he didn’t want to press charges.

Hopper tells TMZ his side of the story is … “I was accosted by paparazzi and made to feel like an animal – threatened and under attack, but that does not condone my own actions.”

He adds, “I deeply regret my choice of words.”

Then don’t say those words, ever. That way, you never have to regret saying them! What a concept!

When we last heard from Sean Penn, he had just broken up with Scarlett Johansson and was moaning about how lonely he is. He’s managed not to attack anyone and has been doing a lot of hardcore charity work for Haiti. Time to sit down and talk with your son, “dude.”

The video can be seen only on TMZ‘s site here. (At least for now.)

  • O snap. That kid is an out-of-control racist homophobe. No matter how mad a person gets, the only words available are the ones you hold in your heart. I cannot help but wonder where he gets this.

  • He ought to be mad at his idiot parents for naming him “Hopper”. Or maybe the far left wing indoctrination he’s received from his dad has made him believe he’s superior to ordinary citizens.
