Actor Alec Baldwin has already been getting tons of flack over his pending trial in connection with a fatal shooting on the set of upcoming movie ‘Rust.’ However, he encountered even more trouble on a quick trip to the coffee shop.

In videos posted to social media, a Pro-Palestine protestor who goes by Crackhead Barney (???) filmed Baldwin as she walked up to him as he stood at the register of a cafe.

“Alec, can you please say, ‘Free Palestine’ one time?” she asked loudly, enough for the person he was on the phone with to hear at least. After a breath of Baldwin ignoring her, she jumped into accusations regarding his upcoming criminal trial.

“Why did you kill that lady? You killed that lady and got no jail time. No jail time, Alec?” the influencer taunted. “You’re putting innocent people in jail,” she continued as a store employee attempted to separate her from the actor.

Baldwin pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter in the fatal shooting cinematographer Halyna Hutchings.

From there, things just went haywire.

As “Barney” continued to beg him to say the ‘Free Palestine’ chant, Baldwin held the door waiting for her to exit.

At the end of the clip, Baldwin responds, “Can you do me a quick favor?” and appears to grab Barney’s phone.

In another video, Baldwin asks the store employee to call the police. From another angle Barney appears to be outside the cafe, calling him a “f*cking bastard” and saying she should file assault charges against him.

This is only the most recent encounter between Baldwin and a group of anti-Israel demonstrators. Back in December, a similar situation happened where he was surrounded by protesters demanding he express support for Gaza, according to The New York Post.

It’s unclear if the police responded to the incident or if Baldwin took any legal action as a result. Online users are accusing Baldwin of physically assaulting Barney or punching her, though it’s unclear whether either of those things happened from the videos.

“All I can say is with a temper like his, whatever they convict Alec Baldwin on, he totally did it,” wrote one user.

Other users seemed to reluctantly side with the actor, saying Barney’s behavior was too outrageous to pardon.

“Do you know how annoying you have to be to have everyone on the internet side with Alec Baldwin over you?” wrote another user.
