And yet it's somehow ok for "him" to advocate guns are bad and should be taken from law abiding citizens yet make millions using them for entertainment without the slightest practice of fundamental gun safety? At the end of the day he pulled the trigger and he owns this. Basic safety check could have prevented this. I don't give a fuck how many people were supposed to do their jobs the gun was handed to him he aimed it and pulled the trigger obviously oblivious to the fact that it was "hot" this is on him and may he rot in hell for all eternity. /rant

It's not OK for him to do that.

It's not a crime, but that doesn't make it OK.

Hypocrisy is very much not OK, but it also shouldn't be criminal. It should get the offender completely ignored in polite society though. But we haven't had one of those in a long time.

I did hear that Mr. Trump was invited on SNL to do an impression of Alec Baldwin.

Won't happen, but it would be epic if it did.

Perhaps not a crime IDK but certainly gross negligence and I hope it costs him everything to families involved.

Oh, and had it been you or me it would most certainly been pursued as a crime. "Oh my friend handed it to me I didn't know it was hot". Yeah, good luck with that.

"My friend handed" it to me is a very different thing than "the prop master of the movie we're filming handed it to me."

If you or I were in that situation (maybe as extras ?) I would not expect charges to be filed either.

OFC, if it were you or I we would have checked the gun, and then let the prop master know he was a dangerous menace

OK so prop master should be convicted here? Must be nice to be a gun grabbing liberal who makes his living glorifying guns and has no responsibility for any fundamental rules of gun safety... the prop master said it was OK wahhhh. Sorry no sympathy here.

Sympathy for who ? The chick who died ?

Baldwin is too much of a narcissist to need any. He wouldn't feel a twinge of guilt if he'd loaded it himself.

He's probably pissed at the prop master for all the negative publicity he's getting. I doubt he actually gives a fuck about the woman he killed.

 

[holdover]

My understanding is that there was arguing going on on the set. In conjunction with this guy's temper tantrums , it's looking more like he was acting out of anger. I can see him taking a shot at them to scare them,or get their attention.i don't care if the handed him a Loaded weapon. It was on him to clear it.also if it fires live rounds it's not a prop, it's a gun.leads me to think it was his own gun.the guy that survived might have a different story

Nope. I'm saying fundamental gun safety rules are (should be] absolute. If you or I were given a gun and told to 1. treat it as unloaded 2. Point it in an unsafe direction (ie at living people) and 3. Pull the trigger. Pretty sure you'd at minimum do a basic safety check to ensure gun was not loaded and at maximum say fuck no I'm not covering anything I don't want to destroy loaded or not. Somehow this fucking liberal gets a pass. Fuck that. This is on him and I hope it haunts him til end of days.

 

[cgrutt]

Oh and where's the outrage? Had this been a school or church the media would be full bore. Nope one of their own sweep it under the carpet...

 

[Deplorable Me]

A deep irony. Remember when the unSafeAct came out? Ex-gubbiner grand douche cuomo allowed exemptions in it for the film industry in NY to continue to operate with unSafeAct non compliant guns and make films here (and generate tax revenue for the state).

Apparently that lobby group must of been campaign donors to Andy as well.

Baldwin always looks and acts like he is going to shoot someone in the gut.

I don't know what happened on that set. It will be interesting as more and more information comes out. Good thing he didn't have a full auto...

Either way, fuck that piece of shit. The guy has been unhinged for a long time.

 

[Bigfoot]

At some point during the investigation Baldwin will probably lose his shit and go into one of his temper tantrums. I would like to see Don Lemon of CNN interview him on a day that he is off his meds. Better yet, Fredo Cuomo.

Pro Tip. LOL
Wear body armor if any where near that nutcase... On or off the set.

 

[kaliber]

You would think there would be video of the incident, I know they were not filming but rehearsing but still you would think they would be some filming for what’s right, what’s not right in making the movie.

Exactly.

Someone was directing that set to be operated in an unsafe manner. People quit because it was being operated unsafely. After they left, it was still being operated in an unsafe manner. Who was that person? The director? Alec Baldwin?

Will the police take the easy way out, and charge the prop master? Will they take the easier way out, and declare it an accident? Either would be a travesty of justice.

Someone in charge was directing that the set be operated in an unsafe manner. My money is on Baldwin, who just so happens to be a Producer.

 

[Blimey]

The actors themselves should also be responsible.

They are the ones who point the gun and pull the trigger.

If they are not qualified to determine what the gun is loaded with, then get them qualified before you hand them the gun.

Any actor handling a firearm should be personally responsible for verifying it's condition when they take possession. Anyone else gets a rubber prop.

Based on one quick bit I read I don’t think this is standard procedure. They have set crew confirm. Otherwise, you end up with actors on set personally loading all their mags, etc.

Here they had a green armorer who was in over her head. 'I wasn't sure if I was ready': Doubts of 24-year-old head armorer

Thank goodness he was wearing a mask at some point. He obviously cares about the health and safety of others.



BTW, I wonder how many people Keanu Reeve's has killed over the years during all of the John Wick films?

I'm not suggesting the actors load or prepare anything.

Just that they personally verify that it was done correctly.

If I were an actor, I would certainly be inspecting any firearm I was handed and told was unloaded, or loaded with blanks to confirm.


If you were handed a gun on a movie set, and the script called for you to point it at someone and pull the trigger, would you just trust the guy who handed it to you ?

I know you would check the firearm and follow safe firearm handling procedures as well as most if not all on this forum. The problem with actors and liberals is that they don’t have it within them to grow appreciation and respect for firearms and it’s a reminder of what they despise, firearms and us. It’s probably a unwanted chore that they hate doing. The rules don’t apply to them, just us.

If they can't do it, then they don't get to handle the gun.

That rule works for children, it should work for hollywood too.

Alec Baldwin: 'I almost drank myself to death - I was a daily drug abuser' ...Who is to say that he still is an abuser.. Wonder if he was ever tested after this happened.

If this here ends up being the truth, and the shots were not fired during filming but in between and intentionally in their direction, then this is criminal.

 

[BerettaGuy]

Baldwin is reportedly distraught and was photographed crying outside the sheriff's office in Santa Fe, according to local newspaper.
So that makes it betta.
Somehow he will end up as the victim in 3-2-1

Many "actors" have gone through extensive firearms training to the point of becoming proficient. He on the other hand became profieicnt in getting stoned.

Comment from the video above:

Sure he didn't know the gun was loaded. Or is this Trumps fault too Alec?
