61. BOTH OF YOU TWO SUM BAGS NEED TO GROW UP AND GET A DAMN LIFE!! ALEC I HOPE KICKS BOTH ASSES!!!!!!!!!!

62. I don't get it. The guy has publicly berated and screamed at his ex-wife(one of the reasons she left him) and his daughter reducing her to tears and leaving her shaking and terrified to the point that police had to be called to the scene because witnesses were so appalled at what was going on. You people who are defending this psycho saying Kim is alienating her child from her father are either misinformed or scumbags yourself. Quite honestly, if I had a child and the child's father was abusive towards her and terrozing her I would NOT force her to be with this slob no matter how much how big a tantrum he threw....and I would bet any amount of money that this was not the first time he left a message like that. She probably finally had it and let the cat out of the bag so everyone would see what a scumbag he really is....not that it's any surprise considering all the other tantrums he has thrown and violent behavior he's exhibited that have been in the news. Perhaps someone close to the family had it and leaked it so people would see what kind of guy Alic Baldwin is since he's constantly slamming Kim in the media. I've never heard kim badmouth alec like that and I'm sure she could..I give her alot of credit for containing herself...again thinking about her daughter here......And now he's looking for sympathy. ..oh and the the person who says kim is an unfit parent because she has agoraphobia....give me a break....so what...that doesn't make her an abusive parent. Justice will be served and if he truly is out of control, the courts will rule in Kim AND IRELAND'S favor...after all this is about the daughter...not alec baldwin.
Oh...and by the way...I'm Pro-Ireland....this is about her and if she doesn't want her father in her life because he's abusive and she's afraid of him...so be it....get help alec...maybe then you can repair your relationship with your daughter....Stop abusing her already...stop taking your anger out on her...be a man.

63. Get ready for another OJ kind of deal on this one!!!

Except this time it won't involve black hatred and jealousy of whites. It will just be a plain old case of crazy ex-wife gets knifed in the back of an SUV, drunken jabbering insane ex-husband found hours later in the fetal position over the grave of Ron Goldman!

Just watch and see. You'll find that I'm right in the end.

64. Alec, why did you not show in court? It looks like you could have been man enough to show up in court after the nasty comments you made to your daughter. You can hide behind a cell phone but can't show up in court to defend or apologize for your rant!!!
You definitely need some anger management counseling. I always thought Kim was the problem until this happened. Maybe she fights him in court to protect her child from his rants.

65. The mother, by acting as her daughter's sister and best buddy, and by disallowing/obstructing the father's attempts to be his daughter's father (not just a walking ATM), has effectively let her daughter know she can do what she wants, whenever she wants. Ireland joins the millions of other kids without anyone keeping them in line. When America is done assigning blame perhaps we can get around to looking at this kid. Let's check in with her every year around graduation time and see what a lovely young woman she's evolving into. We're raising young demanding monsters who will grow up to be irresponsible, unproductive adults. Sociopathic Peter Pans. Nice job, Kim.

66. I am a known professional athlete. What is happening to Alec actually illegal, and his law team knows it. They keep it going to collect more money. Any mother who keeps a child away from the father is a bad mother. The same goes for a father who keeps the child from the mother. The child will wind up with a great relationship with Alec when she gets older, and have no relationship with Kim. I have spoken with Alec's people, and I and many fathers will change the laws regarding custody. I will be going infront of congress before long to pass new laws. So for all of you mothers who think you are in control because you can play around with visitation rights and think dads do not have rights, enjoy it while you can. Soon dads will have the same rights as mothers and equal time with the child. It might take a year or two, but it will happen, I have powerful politions on my side that will see to it. Anybody who has a half a brain cell, can see that the content on the tape was really directed at Kim. Why? because she is a lousy mother who would rather have her girl grow up without a dad just to hurt the father. Kim gets the loser of the year award.

67. Thank you DonnaW and by me.........
I agree and could not of said it any better.

Kim's parenting will cause Ireland to rebell really badly. She can blame that on the public or Alec.

69. To me. #66

Sometimes growing up without a mom/dad is a good thing....depending on your mom/dad.

I know.

70. This is only a pause in time to re-evaluate what is in the best interest of their daughter, Ireland. I am very very pleased also that Alec Baldwin has to step back and face what he has done to his daughter (emotionally) . He (Alec) , from his comments and demeanor
is quoting sympathizers of verbal abuse and blaming everyone but himself.

71. I dont care who you are #66, and what laws you want to change. I still say, if Alec wants love and respect from his daughter, then he needs to learn love and respect and try giving her that instead of placing 'FEAR" of him in her heart. Screaming repeatedily, "I'll be in LA on Friday and you just wait", would put fear in any adult let alone a child. Then topping it off by calling her a selfish little pig. My dad has never spoken to me like that, because he wanted his children to grow up with confidence, not FEAR. Yet you feel he should have custody. You're crazy too!!! Then you say, his rants and rages were directed at Kim. Still, no matter how mad he is at his child's mother, you still don't leave a message like that on a machine for the child to hear. Alec totally disrepected his baby girl's mom. He's really a sad man all the way thru and thru. He reminds me of that Betty woman (who is in prison now), where she went in and SHOT both the ex-husband and his new wife IN THEIR SLEEP. She left all those threatening voice messages to both the kids, ex and new wife. Stating that he took the kids away and he was controlling them to hate her. By the way, the kids ended up testifying against her, and no they didn't want to be/live with her. They've made a move of her. You need to get the CD, and see if your friend, Alec's behavior is quit similar. Because I can see your friend Alec is capable of doing the same. Men/Women that treat their kids and exs with rants and rages and name calling shouldn't have rights dude.

72. Baldwin is an arrogant classic sociopath/abuser.

They have no empathy for anyone except themselves.

Kim, protect your daughter at no cost!!

73. #66 sounds like a scorned father/ex-husband...again...why are people turning this into a father's rights issue? The message was left for his daughter and his anger was aimed directly at his daughter..so what you are saying is he was taking out his anger at his wife out on his daughter...yeah....great parenting...good going alec! #66...do you realize how you contradicted yourself with that statement? Oh, and I'm supposed to be impressed by the fact that you're a "known professional athlete"...big deal...you know how many professional athletes have a violent history....beat their wives...cheat on their wives....gee...does O.J. Simpson ring a bell....oh yeah..you probably think he's innocent, too...And why are you assuming Kim is keeping Ireland away from her father? How do you know that she's not afraid of him and does not want to see him because of his abusive behavior? Would you send a child to a father who is physically or sexually abusing him or her? I think not! So what's the difference with verbal abuse? It's just as damaging. Let me ask you, would you force your child to visit with a parent you know is abusing and hurting them? I agree, they should ask the child how SHE feels.

74. The killer's name was Betty Broderick from San Diego, CA. Her whole divorce trauma and losing the kids (who voluntarily went with their father) to her ex Dan and his new wife sent her into hysteria. She would call her kids and then get into a rage when the answering machine came on. She would then proceed to leave these horrible, threatening messages. Calling her kids names, him names and the new wife names. She finally resorted to the gun and killed both her ex and new wife in their bed while sleeping. You're right, there has been movies made and Alec should see it!

75. If she's not jumping at the chance to answer his phone calls or there waiting for his calls, clearly shows she doesn't want to be with him (even though Alec's excuse is that, "Kim keeps Irland away"). This isn't his first outbreak, he just got busted. I'm sure that child has heard plenty and been in the middle of both their fights, and I bet Kim didn't win any of them, but walked away with bruises. No child or adult would want to be with a parent or spouse that puts them down and constantly screams at them.
