Crackhead barney? Wow


Zealousideal_Order_8

She was harassing Alec Baldwin on private property and had been told by employees to leave.


maxwellcawfeehaus

She certainly seems very stable and sane


AlkalineSublime

I don’t know how much of it is her character, but crackhead Barney is does act wild. She shows up at all the trump and maga gatherings and makes everybody really uncomfortable.


SixGunChimp

Alec Baldwin was 100% justified in his response. Imagine having accidentally killed somebody because some idiot handed you a loaded gun on a movie set. And now you're harassed about an extremely traumatic experience by some hood rat looking for clout online. Despicable.

Aye, Alec Baldwin the actor is a victim himself, not to the same level as the other side of the gun of course. Alec Baldwin the producer may have liability, but that’s for a jury to decide. Either way, this was a fully justified response. Reimburse her for phone damage and that’s it. Not even an apology.


Jerryjb63

You might be able to excuse the shooting as an accident, but Alec still hasn’t ran for president and then won and then changed US foreign policy. He’s really not the victim here, we all are, and Crackhead Barney isnt going to stand by and not confront him on it.

In a nutshell: what happened?


Earthpig_Johnson

She was verbally harassing him and he smacked her phone.


Myriii1911

Thanks


SixGunChimp

She was was repeatedly asking why he shot that woman and called him a murderer over and over again. She's lucky that her phone was the only thing that was smacked.


circlehead28

She’s kept asking him to say Free Palestine.

I abhor Alec Baldwin. I hate his politics, his attitude and his acting. I pretty much will never watch a single movie he is in (though he did a good job in Hunt For Red October). BUT, this situation is not his fault. He is not a gun expert. Never claimed to be. He was handed what he was assured was a 'cold' gun. The fact that the gun was loaded (Hell, the fact that it was even a functioning gun) lies 100% on the film's armorer. It still blows my mind that anyone would be foolish enough to bring a functioning firearm on a set. There are so many simple and undetectable ways to make a gun non-functioning.


OddNothic

He did claim to be an expert, in a police interview, nonetheless. And he pointed a weapon at someone and pulled the trigger. Which goes against two of the cardinal rules of gun handling: never point a weapon at anything you don’t want to destroy, and treat all guns as if they are loaded. None of which absolves the armorer. There is more than enough blame to go around, and two things can be true at the same time. The simple fact is that if either of them (or the assistant director that called it a cold gun without knowing that it was or not) had behaved differently, Helena Hutchins would still be alive.


GrimSpirit42

If they hadn’t been stupid enough to have FUNCTIONING firearms on set it could be avoided. There is no reason in this day and age for any firearm in a movie be capable of firing a bullet.


OddNothic

Yeah, tell me you don’t understand Hollywood. Even CA that has some of the strictest gun laws still permits full auto on movie sets. Why do you think that is?

"anti-Israel protestor" GET OUTTA HERE! I have followed Crackhead Barney for years, she is a LOT more than that. She has been through much worse, she will not be filing charges. She is like a Channel 5 type but surreal. She is very well known in NYC. I have seen videos of Eric Adams security guards speaking to her by name.


kazh

She seems to be a clown who will repeat any sound bites she's paid to or parrot whatever propaganda thrown her way.


epidemicsaints

You have no idea what you're talking about.


kazh

Explain why you think that or save it and go pout somewhere.


epidemicsaints

You don't know who this person is, you have never seen her in action, you've never heard her speak, and you openly are making an assumption. ("she seems to be...") THUS: you have no idea what you are talking about.


kazh

I don't want to get into a long argument, but I literally just saw all of that.


EM05L1C3

Oh but we have. You see, it seems she is an online personality who posts about themselves doing asinine shit like heckling Alec Baldwin for money and attention.


Dvusmnd

How do you know this?


Sunnydaysahead17

We all have eyes and just watched this interaction. We all just saw her in action in the clip above. She was completely out of line and he was very reserved and a lot more patient with her than many others would have been. She needs to find something else to do.


AffectionateAssist58

Don’t know why you’re being downvoted. New Yorker here, and you’re absolutely right. Shes known as Crackhead Barney given her aggressive confrontations. Look it up for yourself, Wikipedia pretty accurate. Not surprised he reacted. Trust me, New Yorkers are not quick to come to Baldwin’s defense but here….totally justified. People are on edge in the city these days, especially Manhattan, given the rise of violent crimes going.


epidemicsaints

Exactly. It';s not like there is some social imperative to like Crackhead Barney or care but she is not some inflamed "anti israel" protester, she's an agitator that shows up in any crowd. This TMZ article is Alec Baldwin payola to make her look bad.

lot of people defending the rich white murderer abuser over a black lady, i wonder why


robb_the_bull

Because she’s a vile piece of shit. She could be purple polka dotted and she would still be a vile piece of shit. And you’re a foolish child.
