The actor Alec Baldwin, who was visiting New York for a coffee break, ran into a woman in the shop who started to harass him. She repeatedly yelled “Free Palestine” at him.

She began by asking him why he killed Halyna. You killed her and didn’t get jail time.”

Baldwin faces involuntary murder charges for the death of Hutchins. Hannah Gutierrez Reed, the armorer (the person who looks after the guns) was already convicted of unintentional manslaughter earlier this month and sentenced to 18 months in the case. Baldwin has pleaded guilty, and his trial date is set for July.

She would then leave him alone. “I swear I’ll leave you alone if you just say free Palestine once.”

She continued, “F**k Israel and f**k Zionism, please tell it.” “Please, just one”

He refused to do it and asked the people at the coffee shop to call the police.

She kept on after him and then he appeared to smack his phone in response.

Baldwin has not yet commented on this issue.

The video was uploaded from Crackhead Barney and Friends with the comment “White devil Alec Baldwin assaulted me while I was trying to get coffee.”

The Community Note of X stated that Baldwin has not yet been convicted for any crimes, called the language “racist”, and announced it would be reported.

Many people, even those who don’t like Baldwin, expressed some sympathy for him dealing with this person.

Megyn Kel declared that she was “Team Baldwin” on this issue.

Clay Travis thought Baldwin was “fairly cool” in the circumstances. “Shoving phones in people’s faces and filming them as you walk around demanding that they repeat your favorite political slogans, is not normal or commendable behavior.” “The recorder is bad here.”

Adam Carolla told the person, “You’re crazy if you make Alec Baldwin look cool.” He then said, “Get a Life!”

Yashar Ali, a journalist at the New York Times, said she could not change anything by insisting he speak out. He said: “This isn’t activism, it’s just gross behavior targeting someone who doesn’t have any policy-making authority and hasn’t been outspoken about the situation in Israel/Gaza.”

Ali is correct, by doing the things she did, Ali only added to our perception of these people, their way of life, and the cause they are fighting for. She didn’t make it any more appealing. She did accomplish something many thought was impossible – she managed to make people feel some sympathy for Baldwin, if only momentarily.
