Ryan O'Neal Arrested -- Shot Fired

106. This is another good example of the hollywood ego maniac a**holes. Mother f***er O'neal got what he deserved it. I am sick and tired of this hollywood trash acting like they own the f***ing world!!!

107. I have no sympathy for Ryan O'neal. I don't give a damn if he has cancer or not. When his daugher, Tatum told him that she was nominated for an Academy Award for their movie, "Paper Moon," he slapped her to the ground! Being jealous of your own child's success. How pathetic!

108. Hey Linda (#75),

It sounds like you have quite the crush on Ryan. His son isn't a "kid" anymore, he's 42! If he can't get along with him, then he (Ryan) should have kicked him out a long time ago.

Who knows, if you're lucky, he might leave Farah for you, and then you can have the "privlidge" of being knocked around by him yourself! But it won't matter to you though, because he to you, he's just so "cute!"

109. Why does anyone give a shite?

110. It just goes to show that celebrities are just like the rest of us...maybe even worse. On one hand I agree with one of the posters in that celebs can have the best of everything-the best doctors, the best standard of living and recuperating. No financial worries if they are laid up for a month or so. Most of us would be in deep trouble without income for that long of a time.
However, it is still a sad situation that this family is dysfunctional or any family for that matter. Look, Tatum doesn't even talk to her dad. Look at the years of what they are missing out on. I do think that Ryan has anger issues and should have been in anger management therapy years ago. Dealing with your kids that are on drugs and being disrespectful is something that would be very hard to deal with and to some degree, I can see where the men would end up in a brawl. I'm not saying that it's the right thing to do. NO!!! But, I can see how it would happen, especially if either son [Griffin or Redmond] came in Ryan's home and acted outrageously. Afterall, you're talking ages 22, 42 against 65. I can only imagine how many fights have been encountered in that household over the years.
Farrah has chosen to see Ryan and therefore, that puts her in that envoirnment. She can walk away if she wants. She needs to think of her own health.

111. #92, I'm not condoning Ryan's actions but surely, he must have felt 'helpless' when Griffin was slinging that poker at him. What would you have done?? Look, Griffin even hit his pregnant girlfriend. That tells you how much control he had.

112. Folks...bottom line... Ryan and his children, from both Joanna and Farrah,have had tempestuous relationships for years. This is between Griffin and Ryan....Farrah has nothing to do with it. They are no longer a couple and this has nothing to do with Farrah's health. They're Irish and they both have the tempers to prove it......it's sad but true.

113. See, isn't it amazing to see how messed up some celebrity familes are?? At least, our dirty laundry isn't broadcast over the internet:)

114. Well it is easy to lay blame from the outside looking in.... But we dont know what happened or why.. Desperation makes people do strange things. Addiction can make a person do some verry bad things.

115. That kid has been in and out of rehab and then some...He has always lived on the edge fathering kids here and there. Ryan is no alter boy and has neglected his kids I am sure...but isn't it time that Griffin takes stock in his own life and moves on and leaves dad alone...I bet he wanted money and dad said NO...and he got pissed and threw the stick at him...I am sure Ryan saw rage that was beyond help and he was scared...we will hear the story when it is out, but I bet Ryan needed protection but a ltitle too late.

116. I doubt Ryan ever really spent a lot of time with the kids, so instead of working hard at being a Dad, the kids were sent elsewhere for the discipline. With no love and guidance by a father, most sons go wild. It took my Dad 30 years to realize who I was... then it all came together.

117. WHY IS IT, THAT SO MANY FAMOUS PEOPLE ARE GETTING SO MUCH TROUBLE LATLEY WITH MIS BEHAVING, IMBARRASSING SITUATIONS AND DRUG USE!!! THEY DON'T APPRECIATE ANYTHING THEY HAVE. WHY WOULD RYAN'S SON BE ACTING IN SUCH A HORRIBLE MANNER WHEN HIS MOM IS DYING OF CANCER. SELFISH AND SPOILED THAT'S WHY! NEVER SLAP THE UNIVERSE IN THE FACE. SNAP OUT OF IT AND BE A TRUE GOOD PERSON, YOU UNGRATEFUL FOOL!

118. I know from reliable sources that this is one big time dysfunctional family. Ryan flew into a rage and attacked Griffin. The girlfried was hurt by Ryan inadvertantly. It sort of revolves around the drug addicted Redmond. It will all come out eventually.

119. This is not an issue to pick sides over. What this is, unfortunately, is a representation of the modern celebrity family in Los Angeles. In three weeks
Griffin will have a reality show, Ryan will come to a revelation that he needs to bring the whole family back together. Ryan, Tatum, and Griffin will reunite on Oprah- and bring Farah along for publicity. Then Griffin will relapse- because that will be the only way to get back on TV after the 6 episodes from the first one run out of steam-----------The wackranout story is really much more interesting.

120. I wouldn't spend a penny on Tatum's book..Oprah didn't believe shit..she had to say..in her show..,Oprah looked her right in her eyes..told her she needs to stop blaming her father and let it go,she's a spoil bitch..she's still getting high and drunk,she was thrown out of a bar..months ago..she lost custody of her children .we all fuck up.at some time..we're not perfect,..but she's still a bitch,even Courtney got her shit together..and has custody of her daughter Frances.Bean...Ryan has a history of being abusive...he's old and sick now, his kids are old enough to move on and leave Farrah and him alone...shit ..he was poking his father...he probably feared his life..so fuck it..
