Ex-congressman and struggling mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner said a video showing him in a shouting match with a bakery customer is just an example of him putting a heckler in his place.
The 2-minute video shows Weiner, surrounded by reporters and campaign supporters in Brooklyn's Orthodox Jewish neighborhood of Borough Park, going back inside the bakery after someone yells, "Scumbag!"
Weiner, his mouth full of honey cake, turns around and yells at the man.
"Yeah?" Weiner says. "It takes one to know one, jackass."
Weiner, who quit Congress in 2011 after a sexting scandal, and the man then confront each other inside the bakery as onlookers take photos.
"You did disgusting things, you have the nerve to even walk around in public," the man tells Weiner.
