The meltdown came in the neighborhood of Boro Park in Brooklyn, where Weiner was confronted by a Jewish voter. The voter started jabbing at Weiner and called him a "scumbag" as he walked out of an establishment, something to which Weiner objected.

"Yeah, takes one to know one, jackass," Weiner quipped back. "... What's that? You wait until I walk out to say anything - that's courage!"

Weiner and the man subsequently approached one another.

"You have the nerve to even walk around in public?" the man told Weiner. "You're disgusting."

"You're my judge?" Weiner said in rebuke. "What rabbi taught you that you're my judge?"

The confrontation goes on for another two minutes. Watch below, via blogger Jacob Kornbluh, who captured the incident:
