    There's a great event that happened in 1960s Hollywood. The paparazzi were harassing actress Anita Ekberg at home, she ordered them to leave, they didn't. She then came out with a bow and arrow and gave them one last chance....
    Apparently two were hit, and it resulted in a great picture of the actress aiming right into the lens of the camera.

    I don’t care about celebrities. I don’t care about what they’re doing. I have no sympathy for them either, they wanted the life they got … but it is clearly stalking. If someone followed you with intent do something, assault of some kind is pretty much illegal. This is the same but you take the R word out of it and you put getting a photo to sell. It should be illegal but like I said they all wanted to be famous public figures so they need to deal with the consequences. Every kid wants to be famous now it’s influencer, I have no interest. I think fame looks dull, boring and seedy. Have to hide half the time. Pay someone to be with you 24/7 because you can’t go to the store.
    It’s the dark side to American culture. They can have it

      @@jordanhtiffirg1990 no I’m just saying they’re getting paid for that part of it. There’s a lot harder work, for a lot less pay then acting or singing. But because of that harassment and life changing attention, that’s where they earn the money. They get everything they ever wanted and then just complain about the part of it they don’t like it’s silly. For all the people right now that are trying to become famous are the same. When your a public figure you can’t pick and choose when you want the attention only how you react to it. You can go Sean penn or Keanu…. That’s up to them but when they get attention and the kind of attention they get, they don’t get to choose. They can move to the middle of nowhere log cabin but they choose to live in Beverly Hills and Manhattan

    Valid questions about the morality of his methods aside, Ron's motivation certainly seems to be the art.
    Where as modern paparazzi are motivated by money and money alone. They just want pics to hock to TMZ, the sun, or whoever will pay them.
    Same action in a sense, but totally different motivation.
    And yes, Ron was wealthy, but that was secondary to his art, regardless what you think of it.
