Alec Baldwin is making headlines again for that famous temper of his. On Monday, a video began circulating showing him slapping away an artist known as Crackhead Barney's phone when confronted at a coffee shop just feet away from his New York City home.
In the video, Barney approaches Baldwin at the cafe, pressuring the actor to say “free Palestine,” blocks away from NYU students forming a “Gaza solidarity encampment” on the school’s campus Monday afternoon. Managing to ignore this request, Baldwin visibly lost his cool when Barney added, "Why did you kill that lady?" Referring to cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who was killed on the set of “Rust” during a 2021 mishap, in which Baldwin pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter charges.
