Alex Baldwin vindicated

[Dana7360]

Baldwin is an uneducated idiot.

Second rule after clearing a weapon, is trigger discipline.

The LAST thing you do with a weapon is put your finger on the trigger.

If your finger is on the trigger then you intend for a round to go down range.

I couldn't get past the ridiculous statement of your first sentence.

Here's Baldwin's education and some of his family history.

Turns out, one of his ancestors came here on the Mayflower.

He got his Bachelor degree from NYU.

Where did you go to school?

From his wiki page:

Alec and his siblings were raised as Roman Catholics.[15] They are of Irish, French, and English ancestry.[16][17] Through his father, Baldwin is descended from Mayflower passenger John Howland, and through this line, is the 13th generation of his family born in North America and the 14th generation to live in North America.[18]

Baldwin attended Alfred G. Berner High School in Massapequa[17] and played football there under Coach Bob Reifsnyder. In New York City, Baldwin worked as a busboy at the famed discotheque, Studio 54. From 1976 to 1979, he attended George Washington University. In 1979, he lost the election for student body president and received a personal letter from former U.S. president Richard Nixon (with whom he had a common friend) encouraging him to use the loss as a learning experience.[19]

Afterward, he transferred to the Tisch School of the Arts of New York University (NYU) where he studied with, among others, Geoffrey Horneand Mira Rostova at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute.[10] Later, he was accepted as a member of the Actors Studio.[20] In 1994, he completed his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at NYU.[21]

Correct.

But the reprehensible right will lie about it anyway.

Of course they will.

If the right couldn't lie they wouldn't have anything to say.

Alec was handed an empty gun, he loaded it and killed someone.

Unlikely.

 

[Gabe Lackmann]

Clear? Blanks? Dummies?

Standard blank...notice lack of projectile...and color...these are generally green (some red)...some have a pinched head...but no projectile


Ok.

Clearing

Remove magazine
Pull slide back and lock into position
visually verify chamber is clear of rounds, and ALL obstructions

5 seconds tops

Caveat.

Now...if there was a live round buried deep in the magazine and he was blazing away...then sure I can see where an accident can happen.

Though I can almost guarantee you that wasn't the case.

Verify clear

Verify clear

You don't get to be careless with a gun. How many parents are prosecuted because their kid got hold of their gun. How many times are gun manufacturers sued cause someone used their product in a shooting. This was beyond careless. HE HAD TO POINT the gun!!

 

[DigitalDrifter]

 

[Calypso Jones]

even a wad in the gun or anything else in it could and would be lethal at short range.

 

[TheGreatSatan]

Unlikely.

Why?

Why do you just believe Alex is innocent?

Why was there a bullet around at all?

Maybe Alex was setup?

 

[Polishprince]

Yeah, because it's completely outside the realm of possibility that the person who handed him the gun was mistaken...

That's certainly possible too. The director could have easily lied to Baldwin and gave him a loaded gun guessing that the liberal wouldn't check the weapon.

But what would the director's motivation had been? That's where Baldwin has a problem.

Baldwin could be the one who loaded the gun. Why assume the director was incompetent?

 

[Gabe Lackmann]

I've had a total of ONE session of firearms safety and use, and I knew that even before I walked in the door of the firing range. It is plain common sense. That's why shitlib morons haven't a clue.

Lock him up for a damned long time.

But they will take those weapons away from YOU in a heartbeat to cover for their brown and black pets.

and even blank guns aren't safe.

Jon-Erik Hexum’s ‘Cover Up’ co-star Jennifer O’Neill remembers late actor: ‘Gun safety is essential’

In 1984, actor Jon-Erik Hexum died after shooting himself in the head with a prop gun blank while pretending to play Russian roulette with a .44 Magnum on the set of the television series “Cover Up.”

www.foxnews.com

"In 1984, the star fatally shot himself in the head with a prop gun blank while pretending to play Russian roulette with a .44 Magnum on the set of his CBS series "Cover Up." He was 26.

After pulling the trigger, the impact from the blast fractured Hexum’s skull, driving a bone fragment the size of a quarter into his brain and causing massive hemorrhaging, Entertainment Weekly reported. Hexum was rushed to Beverly Hills Medical Center but was pronounced brain dead after five hours of surgery."

I see that

wants to “take back the truth.” And she doesn’t care how many dead bodies she has to step over in that pursuit. The Second Amendment is not a moral credit card that buys you all the guns you want. That law needs to be rethought.

Seems like these anti-gun actors, would put their money where their mouths are, and refuse to play in movies where gun violence is present.

Looks like if a studio set is going to use a working firearm during production all employees and actors should have to take a firearm safety course and get their permit to carry card before they are allowed to start production.

And by all employees and actors I mean all.

Otherwise the set should be using fake firearms that have leaded barrels.

*****SMILE*****

I would not say all actors should have a carry permit. There should have been a safety briefing, covering use, basic weapons safety, ammo used on set, etc.

Oh ouch!

Well thanks for that Lord Fauntleroy but you and Alec can both suck my pink paddy Irish balls.

I don't think the director was incompetent at all. He either purposely handed Baldwin a loaded gun or an unloaded gun. If he handed him a loaded gun, he's guilty too.

Hollywood is today coming to terms with the shocking death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on a movie set, after a prop gun was fired by Alec Baldwin.
Baldwin and Hutchins were working on Rust, a Western being filmed in New Mexico, when the incident occurred on Thursday.

No immediate charges have been filed, the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office said in a statement to the Associated Press.

A spokesperson for Alec Baldwin described the shooting as an accident due to the misfire of a prop gun with blanks.

The incident has rattled many industry figures who are questioning if the correct gun safety protocols were being practiced on set.
Baldwin is reportedly distraught and was photographed crying outside the sheriff's office in Santa Fe, according to local newspaper The Santa Fe New Mexican.
The 63-year-old actor has been a supporter of gun control for many years.

In 2018, he joined an initiative aiming to reduce the National Rifle Association's influence in American politics. A Guardian report published at the time said the group was taking part in demonstrations, boycotts and voter registration campaigns.
In the same year, Baldwin became embroiled in a war of words with Dana Loesch, who was then an NRA spokesperson.
"I see that @DLoesch wants to 'take back the truth,'" Baldwin tweeted in March 2018 after NRA TV released a trailer for Loesch's show.

"And she doesn't care how many dead bodies she has to step over in that pursuit. The Second Amendment is not a moral credit card that buys you all the guns you want. That law needs to be rethought."
Newsweek has contacted the NRA for comment.
Loesch addressed Hutchins' death on Twitter on Thursday, posting: "After all the crazy s*** Alec Baldwin has said to and about me, I'm going to have more grace than him right now and leave it at that."

After all the crazy shit Alec Baldwin has said to and about me, I’m going to have more grace than him right now and leave it at that.
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) October 22, 2021

On Friday, a prop gun specialist described Baldwin as "very professional, very safe" in his work.
"Mr. Baldwin, when I worked with him, was very professional, very safe. I was shocked it was him … I was like, 'How can this be?'" professional armorer Mike Tristano told a BBC interviewer.

They're all whores. They'll do anything for a dollar, even if it includes going against the morals that they pretend to have.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Baldwin speaks out against guns, then turns around and profits off gun violence in his movies.
