Fuckin hell, too true. Have a lemon 🍋
What's with the lemon?
Take it 🍋
Oh 🍋 thanks
Holy fuck
Odds are it was truly random and the guy didn't recognize that he was assaulting a celebrity.
First Rick Moranis, and now Steve Buscemi? This is so sad.
I wonder how often this must happen to non-famous people that don't make the news too.
Thankfully the peasants don't matter
Rick Moranis hasn't been famous in decades. And given that he was attacked from behind, its unlikely the attacker knew him. Just some guy lashing out randomly for who even knows what reason.
I wonder how often this must happen to non-famous people that don’t make the news too.
NYC has one of the highest police budget's per-capita in the world and Manhattan is one of the most densely surveilled places in the country. I have to assume if cops are too busy crushing candy on their phones, this sort of thing is regular and they don't give a shit.
I learned today that the NYPD is as large as the entire Australian military.
Well the New York City metropolitan area has nearly the same population as the nation of Australia so it’s not entirely surprising. NYC alone is approaching 1/3rd of Australia’s population and the US is damn near a police state so yeah
Fucking nihilists
I hope they didn’t cut off his Johnson.
No athairmor, these men are cowards.
Steve is a fucking treasure.
As I understand, Mr Buscemi found himself on 9/11 day near his old fire station, and helped out his old crew tirelessly.
I don't need that to be true. Steve Buscemi is a nice guy and doesn't deserve that shit.
Often out of his element, though.
Shut the fuck up Donnie
Not that there’s a good reason for ever doing this, but why did this person punch him at all?
Probably mental illness.
Not all that unusual to see a guy walking some corner of town, ranting to himself in an agitated state. Social isolation, anxiety, fear, and frustration turning people into human-shaped time bombs just waiting to go off.
washes hands
I guess he was out of his element...
Stay safe out there.
This is a travesty, man!
I hope it wasn’t Phil Leotardo
He's dead IRL too.
Finally getting his revenge for what the animal Blundetto did to his kid brother Billy.
Geeze whose gonna be next, Dolly Parton?
My bad, I was smacked on glue and didn't know it was Steve. Live and learn, am I right
