Silverman Brings Out His Inner Chuck Norris
UPDATE: YouTube video of the events has been added.
Well, he didn't throw out a roundhouse kick for the cameras, but he sure didn't back down from a violent confrontation yesterday. Peter Silverman of the Citynews program Silverman Helps was ready to bust some chops when he was attacked by a man selling counterfeit frames for glasses. After following leads and complaints for several months, Adam Plimmer had finally told Silverman that he'd "Found God" and was prepared to have a sit down with the Silverman to discuss his criminal ways, reported Breakfast Television this morning. When he arrived, the man threw the door open and attacked the reporter with his fists and a broomstick. After locking himself inside his store, Police arrived and forcibly removed Plimmer. He's facing various assault charges now, no doubt in addition to charges he'll face for fleecing customers for months with his shoddy products.
Check the video available at Citynews.ca for the full story. Silverman FTW!

Adam is a prick! He's already has enough problems for getting busted in selling knockoff frames and threaten to kill his customers. And now he's assaulting a reporter and the public with his girly snaps and punches and OMG, please not the BROOM! He could have avoid all this if he would have just repaired the guy's sun glasses(first case). Like c'mon you already rip the guy off by selling a knockoff sun glasses. How much would it have cost you just to fix a little crack on the frame?
I would have laugh if the ETF POP a cap in his ass.
I guess Ryan is probably standing up for his friend.
Quote:"No no no no, Jerr, hitting a man with glasses is shameful. And why doesn't Silverman pick on someone his own age, eh? He's a bastard, that's why."
Laughed my ass off at your headline. heh. The vid clip is crazy... HE'S THROWING SNOWBALLS.
I can't believe they called in the ETF though... it looked a little ridiculous.
Pretty soon throwing snowballs will be enough to throw you in jail for an indeterminate period of time as a terror suspect.
Silverman was in the army, and still knows how to put up his dukes.
A 33-year old slapping a 75-year old around like that is SHAMEFUL!
No no no no, Jerr, hitting a man with glasses is shameful. And why doesn't Silverman pick on someone his own age, eh? He's a bastard, that's why.
talk about shameful... check out the copy on the CityTV site, full of typos and great writing like,
"You wouldn't think being a local TV journalist would be hazardous to your health.
But then, you're not Peter Silverman."
A friend bought a pair of "OAKLEYS" from Adam Plimmer. The frame hinge fell apart after 2 weeks. He actually got a replacement pair but they are fake crap too.
----------- NOTICE -----------
KING WEST OPTICIANS has changed its name to ADAM PAUL & ASSOCIATES. It is still the same business and owner. A number of people have seen the thieving cheap little faggot prick helping to change the sign himself. Do not patronize ADAM PAUL AND ASSOCIATES.
This little weasel needs to be put out of business and have his ass run out of the city. DO NOT send him out to Kitchener-Waterloo. There are a few people out here who would like to "talk to him" on Silverman's behalf too.
Adam is a moron and a thief. They've done 4 or 5 stories on this jerk and they keep getting better and better.
Peter Silverman is a overbearing asshole. Plimmer is a crooked merchant but who the hell does Silverman think he is?. Wake up people.
Peter Silverman is doing very well for his age. Adam Plimmer should apologize to Peter Silverman and the Toronto Police Department and CityNews crew members.
