16. For all the invasions and attacks the pap's impose on celebrities private lives, I think they deserve every bit of abuse back at them.

Good for Jude Law! I'd do the same for my kids.

17. Way to go Jude! They are stalkers and you have to protect your kids from these creeps!

19. In the past there seems to have been a suspiciously vocal group of "friends" of the ex-Mrs Law ready and willing to present her side of the story to the press. Right when their family life became a public soap opera they opened themselves up to this kind of press scrutiny.

That's not to say I think lurking in wait for pictures of kids is acceptable. It's not. But some celebs seem to want to play the press then get upset when they are no longer in control.

21. You know this is getting worse and worse, the harassment the paparazzi gives, there will be a law down the line that bars them from getting too close to anyone. This is a perfect example AMONGST MANY of how far gone the paparrazi are regarding movie starts, seriously, they dont have a life and cant take a poop, sleep, eat, enjoy anything without them harassing them and thats where its going to be at eventually. The silliness of getting a scoop is getting dangerous.

Get a life paps, you need to get a grip because you will be in court soon with every pop start, movie star or whoever you decide to stalk. I wish we could stalk you and you would know how it is.

23. Well said regwalk1 (12). I can remember a time (and not so long ago) when the children of actors were out of bounds - we simply never saw photos of them unless they were photographed with their parents for a photoshot. The situation now is pure madness and quite unjustified. Celebrities don't "deserve" this because they are celebrities and the only thing that should interest us is their talent and skill as actors.

24. Is this guy seriously pressed charges for that injury?!? I come home more battered than that on a daily basis...and I'm a preschool teacher...

25. Boo-hoo. The paparazzi need to stop stalking celebrities at home, especially if they have children. I think any parent - including a celebrity - has an absolute right to do whatever they deem necessary to protect their children. If what you showed in the pics is the guy's only injuries, then this situation is being blown completely out of proportion. From the TMZ article, I expected to see black eyes and a broken nose.

26. His kids weren't even with him when he assaulted this pap! He wasn't protecting them- they weren't even there! Jude Law has always had a bad temper and it's always showed-walking 10 feet ahead of his girlfriends, treating his wife like cr*p (leaving her when she was sick with post partum depression after giving birth to thier 3rd child), cheating on his fiance, etc. The police were called to his house before when he went off on his wife. The guy's a bad tempered, self-centered a**hole. I don't care how famous you are or how mad you get at an "injustice" (I notice the injustice of him getting paid a criminal amount of money for what he does doesn't bother him!) - you aren't allowed to assault other people that annoy you. I hope he learns his lesson.

27. Puh-lease... "protect his children" from what? Being photographed? Puh-lease!

And no, people don't have the right to do whatever they want (including battery) to "protect their children" from being photographed! Those kids live as priviledged millionaires because their father is a celeb. They also have the downside of photographers. Boo-hoo. Makes their life a living hell? Gimme a break! These kids don't know and will never know what a living hell is!

And what's all this villifying the paps? If WE- the adoring public- didn't have the greedy hunger for all these celeb pics and gossip they'd have no reason to photograph celebs. Aren't we all on TMZ- which is all about celebs and celeb photographs? Why complain about "evil paps" when they only supply OUR demand?

Get over it. Jude's a bad tempered a**hole who can't handle celebrity. He should go back to the stage and work for scale. We'd all soon forget about him (and his kids!).

29. if paparazzi would stalk me everywhere i go and take photos of my children i would want to kill them. there are no laws to protect celebrities from these vultures. they were partially responsible for diana's death....jude has had paps up to his neck. he can't go for a cup of coffee without them on top of him. if he got this angry you can bet that pap was all over his kids.

30. indeed, deborah is absolutely right. all the comments calling paps evil are on a site that gets all there pictures from paps. everyone commenting on this site is supporting paparazzi and supplying them with the means to go out and take photographs of celebrities for another day.
