Baldwin is waaaay to old for this crap. He has been around long enough to expect this. He is very visible, publicly discusses his prrivate life and commands alot of public attention. Surely he is not embarassed by his child bride. If he continues his tangents I think people won’t be surprised when violence occurs in his marriage as well. He shoudl quit now. He has been vey fortunate in his career and popularity but those can both be blown at any time.

The paps took pics of the pap, so there might be a bit bias here. We don’t know what the pap did to him. Those things would do anything for money.

These paps are scum. If there’s no legal way to make them stop…oh well. Maybe they can regulate after people die, celeb or pap. Just because you’re famous doesn’t mean you should have to give up all privacy. We (collectively) allow abhorrent behavior because they’re only celebs who “want it anyway”. Many don’t. And their lives are not ours, they’re theirs.

Good for Baldwin.

Paps will try anything to get a bad reaction out of celebs and Baldwin is high on the list of easy marks in this regard. He has a very bad temper and a reputation for swinging on paps. I’m pretty sure the guy did or said something to bait Baldwin into a confrontation. Having said that, Baldwin is old enough and has been in the biz long enough to know to just turn around and keep walking.

They also block celebs way. I have noticed that they even stand in front of their moving vehicle to take pics. They are going to get the sh++ knocked out of them with a moving vehicle… not so much the fist.

Excellent news. The more paparazzi that get slugged the happier I am.

I would love to think someone dying would cause regulations to be in place but, they killed Princess Diana nearly 15 years ago and still nothing has happened. I think, maybe an AMERICAN has to die before something happens, our government seems only to notice problems that affect America (or can affect us positively/ increase our power).
Don’t get me wrong, its not just America- everyone does it!

You know, I would like to agree with you but I can’t. This can certainly be stopped and quickly. However, it is the celebs that have to stop it, they won’t because it gives them so much free publicity. And Alec Balwin is one of the worst, this guy that you see him shoving probably has a paycheck coming from him. Look at the comments on this page. That poor schmuck just made Baldwin look like a mistreated hero. With the money and powerful attys. most celebs have, they could stop this but they don’t want to. Keeps their name out there.They can afford to hire a security crew to keep paps away, but guess what? they don’t. It’s not up to the gov’t to stop this. It’s up to the celebs.As long as they can get this much exposure from stunts like this,nothing will change.

The Paparazzi killed Princess Diana. It’d be okay if the celebs wanted the attention (many do), but the majority does not.

If some scrawny ass loser with a camera or some ugly girl were chasing me and asking me personal questions, I would start slugging to. The Paparazzi ask EXTREMELY personal questions and basically stalk people to get a reaction.

There needs to be laws to regulate the Paparazzi because they are essentially stalkers and the consequences prove fatal. I hope that Pap scum that got slugged is feelin the pain.

Only bottomfeeders become Paparazzi because they have nothing productive in society to do besides annoy people. It brings a smile to my face and a flutter to my heart every-time someone spits on, punches, or smashes the camera of the Paps =.
