Well - I suppose there is opportunity for that.... but the armourer is directly responsible... who TF brings live ammo onto a film set?

Well - MAYBE in a single personal weapon never touched by anyone else in case there is an attempted robbery of the firearms or something... VERY remote.... and anyone with any sense would ensure that had zero compatibility with any weapon to be used on the set.

FFS... simple rules make life easy to keep....

Once on a set I had to fire a shotgun ... pointed down a beach... another time I had to hold a pistol on two guys and found it difficult to actually point at them.... goes against the training you see....

After the incident, Alec the psychopath screached, not my fault not my fault.....then just about every action actor in Hollywood piped in and said, yeah, we take gun safety seriously and personally check every round in every firearm that's handed to us.

Baldwin also LIED and said the gun spontaneously went off, a physical impossibility with a revolver.

The armourer needs to go down, so does the trigger puller.

Loaded guns… hmmmm….
Especially in America…
One should think… a horse always kicks, and a gun is always loaded.

Trouble is… in USA guns are so easily attainable, branded around, so used to its presence, no one takes it seriously…
Therefore… I see it as Alec may go to jail…. he’s been made an example to take guns in hand as a fully personal responsibility and face the consequences.

Involuntary says it - sounds like a chance for a civil settlement... bastard of a thing to happen to anyone.... bet there are extra checks in place now.

Actually, not really, no need. Millions of blank rounds get fired on movie sets all around the world every year and nobody dies.

The producers (Baldwin was also an EP) penny pinched and got a cheap, inexperienced schit armorer. There were numerous other safety concerns on set and lastly, Baldwin is a Cword and didn't personally check the weapon himself.

Huh

The laws and rules need to be looked at.

Apparently people were using the gun with live ammunition for target practice in breaks.

A gun to be used as a move prop should be registered as such and it should be illegal to ever put a live round in that gun.

Should be compulsory for 3 people to check any weapon taken onto a movie set every time it is used.

Alex is responsible for an accidental shooting and would seem to libel to some degree of carelessness.

However in the US it is ok to take a gun to a protest and shoot a few people, this is certainly not as bad as that one.

You offended me for telling the truth - and challenged me to prove what I said - so I did with experts Webb and Sutton.

So I told the truth and you owe me an apology.

Of course deluded psychotics never apologise when they are proven wrong.

The sheila armourer has also been charged.... 25 year old Hannah Gutierrez Reed.

Too inexperienced and to much safety complacency by others on the set.

It does not matter if it's a real, replica or toy gun ... you don't point them at random people & pull the trigger.

Baldwin is a dumb tnuc.
