Man in custody for punching actor Steve Buscemi in Manhattan
A 50-year-old man has been taken into custody for allegedly assaulting actor Steve Buscemi on a New York City street, authorities said.
Who hates Steve Buscemi?
It was 100% a crazy person on the street.
Also it says he was caught because he was yelling at people and harassing them on the street. That's basically the exact profile of an unmedicated schizophrenic or similar in NYC.
Source: lived in Manhattan for many years.
Broadly there are three options:
- Buscemi is kind of an asshole and pissed people off
- Buscemi holds a political opinion/is the subject of some conspiracy that makes him a target
- New Yorker shit
I don’t have any info to suggest any specific option is right, and I’m too lazy to do even a modicum of research, but if I’m betting I’m betting on 3 with a hedge on 2. He seems cool as hell.
Mr Pink doesn't believe in tipping.
Also a racist
This reminds me of when Rick Moranis was attacked on the street in NYC in 2020 https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/man-arrested-new-york-city-attack-actor-rick-moranis-n1247852
You think the carpet pisser did this?
He was out of his element
