A 69-year-old filmmaker and author was arrested in Bridgehampton, N.Y., last week for allegedly harassing former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani. “Giuliani is walking down the street with his wife when this guy comes up and yells, ‘You’re the worst person in the world and I’m going to punch you out,’” an eyewitness told the New York Daily News. “Giuliani basically said, ‘Bring it on.’” John McCluskey said he told Giuliani he was a bully as a prosecutor and mayor. “I told him what I thought of him, which is my right,” McCluskey said.
