It should be, and it will...and Baldwin should be charged. Any one "accidentally" shoots someone should be charged, regardless of who pulled the trigger.

I have no problem when a person respectfully disagrees or even gets a bit heated with me on a position. But when a person basically says that because I support a position they disagree with (2nd Amendment) that I have bloody hands (inferring I am a murderer), I really do not have much sympathy for them as an individual. You get what you sow.
First thing I was taught about firearms was to always treat any gun as if it was loaded and double check to make sure the chamber was empty.
...also he was the producer of the movie and there are stories about lax safety on set coming out. Even more liability for Baldwin.
Re: Political memes, Posters, Funny Pics, Etc.
Yeah, the information coming out even suggests this wasn't the first accidental discharge. It's tragic and was an accident - but the production company and Baldwin are liable for what happens.SDHornet wrote: ↑Mon Oct 25, 2021 9:58 amThis is why the fault lies with Baldwin.

Btw - prop guns are retro-fitted/manufactured to ONLY fit blanks. So, it's interesting that they have real guns on a movie set.

Trump’s kids make the younger Kennedys look brilliant by comparison. And you just know that Don Jr. wants to follow in daddy’s footsteps.

Donald Trump Jr. is also a vile man and I hope karma gets him as well.

Baldwin violated the top 2 rules of gun safety:Ibanez wrote: ↑Mon Oct 25, 2021 4:48 amIt is political points. Even if he failed to check to make sure the gun was safe, he's relying on a Armour and a Director, both of whom were in the chain of custody, to ensure that he was being given a safe prop. It's an accident.SeattleGriz wrote: ↑Sun Oct 24, 2021 7:33 am
No political points being scored. Simply pointing out that he's a dipshit around guns apparently and his lack of proper handling has caused this problem. The exact type of person no one should listen to on the subject of guns.
My question - why the hell is Hollywood using live rounds to begin with!?
1. Treat every firearm as if the gun were loaded.
You don’t rely on anyone to tell you that, you ALWAYS check the chamber to see if its loaded.
2. NEVER EVER point the gun at something/someone you don’t intend to shoot.
This is about as much of an accident as someone driving 120 down the highway causing a wreck that kills someone and injures another.

Re: Political memes, Posters, Funny Pics, Etc.
I agree. And it is the reason I haven't posted any Baldwin meme's so far as I do try to take the "high road" in most cases. But I also don't have a problem at all with those same memes or people posting them as Baldwin opened up himself to them when he placed himself on a pedestal as an authority on gun violence and what should be done about it.UNI88 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 24, 2021 8:13 am
I don't like him either. He's an asshole and an idiot for not double-checking. But someone's dead and using that death to make memes mocking the asshole/idiot is also an asshole move.
Too many people think it's ok to stick it to the "other side" any way you can. I think we can be better than this.
Baldwin just learned that the Norns are unforgiving and maybe one should be more tactful and diplomatic when dealing with people you disagree with. It is a shame that somebody had to die for him to learn that lesson.
Baldwin broke multiple guild safety rules on set that were put in place just for these types of incidents. The incident with Brandon Lee comes to mind when they are ignored.
An article that I read had some interesting insight about staged shootouts. To paraphrase that the firearms are real and checked before hand. Blanks are not issued until just before the performance and any fired or unfired blanks are returned immediately afterward while firearms are again checked to ensure that they are empty. During the performance a safe distance is maintained between performers and no firearm is pointed directly at another. Point blank shots are strictly prohibited. Camera angles are used to make it look like people are firing at each other when they are not.
