Cops Cuff Actor... for Acting! - TMZ.com

1. What a bunch of keystone cops. I am surprised they cuffed him since he is a white guy.

Don't they target minorities out there? 2. If this story is real and not just a publicity stunt for the movie (seems a little far fetched considering how many permits you have to get to shoot a movie these days) .

.. this dude is lucky the cops didn't open fire on him.

If they legit thought he was a wacko with a gun, the slightest little point of the gun in their direction would have triggered them to open fire. Especially if the actor thought they were joking around or part of the movie and tried to 'play along'. If this is a real incident and not something set up by publicists to get the movie name out there .

.. an investigation should be conducted to see who 'F-ed' up because this could have ended worse than Brandon Lee's performance did in the Crow 2.


3. Wouldn't you think that CA cops would recognize a movie set? .

. . but I'm not surprised .

. . there are a lot of cops on the streets today that shouldn't be there .

. . ever since 9/11 the job has changed .

. . ALOT .

. . consequently unsuitable people are being hired to do a job they shouldn't be doing .

. . cops are so paranoid today that they often over react to situations that are innocent .

. . I doubt that things will get better either .

. . ever!


4. The brain trusts of the LAPD at work again - they can't find their own asses!
5.

Slow day, TMZZ? If this happened Feb. 11th, why did it take a month for us to hear about it?

Oh yeah, you were obsessed with ANS and just now realizig that life went on with out her..

This is all publicity for the movie they're shooting. With the crews, the lights, the equipment, the trailers running the length of the street for make-up, hair, producer's offices and actor's dressing rooms, I find it IMPOSSIBLE to believe that LA cops wouldn't recognize a scene being shot. Besides, the crowd control/PAs holding back the gawking tourists would've been the biggest tip-off.

I think a certain no-name director is worried that his baby cast with no-name actors all trying to turn a piece of sh*t script into something interesting -- brandishing a gun? how original! -- will be heading straight to DVD/Pay-per-view and is trying to breath some "life" eg.

publicity into it.
7. The LAPD always act like a bunch of "-sses".

I should know I have lived here all my life and they are racist as well. Most of the time I have been pulled over is when I had a black friend in the car. Anyway I am bored with this story and if you too click on my name posted at the bottom for a link to go to something a lot more tanatilizing and more stimulating then this!


8. I live in L.A.

and this just shows the type of idiot cops we have to deal with out here!
If the actor had been a Nig er, they'd of shot him!
10.

Is'nt there something blocking that area so that not just any one can get in the movie. Didnt the cops see the big black cameras ( Stupied )
11. This was stupid.

i have done some film work. usually the movie production companies have notified the city where they will be shooting as well as othr city officials so there wont be a problem with something like this, Sounds like someone in control at the production company didnt do such a great job of communication with the right city officials on this thing, Either that or whoever was notified didnt do ther job worth a crap, This was idiotic, And i think the directors remark to the actor that you " Gotta be here tomorrow morning, its in your contract ' wasnt very funny either. How would he like it if he were being hauled off?

Moron.
12. Pride of the LAPD, those boys.


13. I live in L.A.

and this just shows the type of idiot cops we have to deal with out here!
14. That is so funny.

Same thing happen to my friends shooting a short film outside from our campus in New Jersey.
15. Your all missing the point these poor guys have being seeing whats her name and whats his face on the web site for weeks they figgered they might get into their two minutes of fame on the great TMZ any clear photo-ops?

bet they all shaved and got a haircut maybe a couple of HGH 's with their orange jucice to pep up the face shots. Posted at on Mar 13th 2007 by sam
