Alec Baldwin, I've always liked you - in spite of your politics | |
Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 49882422 United States 02/24/2014 09:24 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Admit it Mr. Baldwin, your politics have been changing for awhile. I would like to pose a theory that at least one of the reasons you have a target painted on your back now is because you have begun to fall out of lock-step with the Hollywood Propagandist machine... Eyes open, Mr. Baldwin. Now that you are waking up and seeing things anew, you will find its hard to go back to the way things were before. |

In an arena of robots doing as their told. Not saying I approve of some of his behavior but he is authentic and that seems to be rare these days, particularly with people in the public eye. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 52481921 I agree. I mean who hasn't said hateful things in the heat of the moment? When we are so fired up we tend to reach for the most biting epithet we can find. If it's racist or sexist or elitest -- doesn't really matter does it? It's human. It's not something we should admire but it is something we can all (and I mean all of us) can relate to. |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 49882422 United States 02/24/2014 09:39 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It was a good read. My respect for his humanity jumped several points. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1483262 Thanks, mine too. I thought maybe it was about time we all took a fresh look at him. If the media makes up news stories and sensationalizes a particular (government sponsored point of view) it only makes sense that they sensationalize other (points of view) too. |

Or maybe it's because I love the movie 'The Hunt for Red October'. |

He is a hothead who has absolutely NO self control. He is an incredible jerk who is only ACTING this way now because he is being treated the way he has treated other for years...like he is better than them. |

Quoting: Apocalypse Troll Is this not just another Act in The Grand Play? You are correct. He is a hate mongering, socialist, liberal. It just got directed on him so now he is ACTING all self-righteous. I can't believe how naive people are. Point of order - anyone who wants to decrease the size of government and relieve a ginormous tax burden from its citizens is not a socialist. |

Ms. Superduper User ID: 46155084 United States 02/24/2014 11:04 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think he's pretty funny, and has made me laugh. I really do try to stay out of their business and just enjoy the talent. Same with Tom Cruise. I think he's a great actor, in spite of the bad press. Greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world. Whatever feels good to your soul, do that. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 49096500 United States 02/24/2014 11:13 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If he continues to be this obnoxious while out in public, I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up getting arrested (or worse). Quoting: Anonymous Coward 13744631 He strikes me as a man with very serious anger issues, and as someone who is a threat to public safety. Yep...I think he is a loose cannon. I could easily see this guy killing someone. I quit watching anything with him when he started doing this crap in public, then the phone calls to his ex and his kid. Can you imagine what this guy is like in private. He repulses me. |

I can see him losing it totally one day. |

He appears to be in need of serious help, both for his sake, and for those that are around him. Sad to see. |
