Good for him. Paparazzi are just scum masking as journalists. The fact that they are satisfying a need of loser Americans for celebrity photos doesn't change what they are. And taking pictures of his children, presumably to be sold and published, places them at risk of kidnapping, assault, etc. The guy had it coming.

Pop a paparazzi!

Pop a paparazzi!

Good for him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These photographers need to be controlled by a code of ethics and licensing. There are proper venues for taking photos. The harassment of people, however motivated, should be stopped. It just takes some cooperation to get it under control. As it is, any illegal immigrant who can afford a digital camera can run around and harass someone- not a good situation.

Hey Brosnans fair game, but taking pictures of his kids is way over the line. Paparazzi are scum plain and simple, we can justify it by saying "hey there famous, its the price they pay" but it doesnt change the fact that its because of our mindnumbingly idiotic fascination with famous people thats currently driving the scummy paparazzi into hounding people down day and night to take their picture.

Hey Pierce, is is assault if you piss on these low lifes. All the respect in the world for photographers that produce beautiful and telling stories from capturing moments in the real tragedy's in life, but the bottom feeding scum who make a living snapping shots for tabloid rags like Murdoch's SUN deserve nothing but boos and jeers. Pierce is an Actor, the celebrity side has evolved into an obsession with potato chip, biggie fry eating loser AmeriKuns who choose to live other peoples lives instead of exploring their own. Nobody is asking to be harassed in public places and everybody's right to persue life and liberty should be protected from prying eyes.

I don't feel one bit of sympathy for Pierce Brosnan. If he doesn't want his kids photographed, keep them out of sight. Part of the job of being famous is getting your picture taken. The photographer was just doing his job, which wouldn't exist except for vain public figures and the people without lives who actually look at their picutres.

What business does a photographer have photographing an actor's kids?
The kids of actors should be off limits, like the kids of politicians should be off limits. Its just commen decency.

I think the right idea for movie stars or anyone else who's sick of having their picture
taken is pretty simple: Buy a Big Camera,
the one with the lens that can count nose hairs.
Everytime the shutterbugs show up, take pictures
of THEM. I think, in time, the practice would
stop...?

Brosnan hasn't been photographed in three years and he chooses to hit a photographer in front of his kids?

Ass. Jack Ass.

Good for Brosnan. I would give any parasite who got too close to my kids a good ass-kicking too.

"That photographer undoubtedly works 1000X harder for a buck than Brosnan"


So does a maggot. Any relation to you?

The paparazzi kicked Pierce Brosnan in the stomach?

It's one thing to get attacked by a celebrity and block their attack, but it's another thing to counter-attack.

This guy crossed the line. He probably needed to get his ass kicked by a celebrity.

Brosnan's an asshole. He has a history of striking photographers. The man's a celebrity. If he doesn't like photographer's snapping his pic and even him with his family, then he needs to get another job. He should be prosecuted for assault.

An actor asking a paparazzi why he doesn't get a "real" job.

That's rich.

That photographer undoubtedly works 1000X harder for a buck than Brosnan will ever have to after A) Being born beautiful, and B) landing his first role.
