WTF!! Killer Alec Baldwin given his own REALITY SHOW! Is the world insane?

[StatesRightsForever]

Right, and the direction was to point the gun at the camera to get a muzzle shot.

So why did he also thumb back the hammer and pull the trigger? That's the big question you baldwin loons can't answer.

Three people are responsible. The armorer, assistant director and the actor.

I understand the armorer got 18 months. Seems rather light to me considering her action (or in-action) directly led to someone’s death. But apparently that was the maximum sentence for involuntary manslaughter in New Mexico.

The assistant director actually handed the gun the Baldwin and even declared it a “cold gun”. He deserved jail time but got away with 6 months probation.

This brings me to Baldwin. He bears some responsibility but IMO not as much as the armorer and assistant director.

I think they all got off with light sentences (in Baldwin’s case no sentence). Another human being lost her life due to gross incompetence and complete mishandling of a firearm by 3 people. Baldwin should have received some sentence even if it was probation. Even though its the armorer and assistant director’s jobs to check the gun, once it was in Baldwin’s hands it was his responsibility to check it. With that said, I still place the majority of the blame on the armorer.

You stupid jackass. You don't even understand the issue. Halyna was NOT an actress in the movie. There was no reason for baldwin to point the gun at her. But he did and then thumbed back the hammer and pulled the trigger. Why did he do all that.? Answer that you moron.

You can’t f’ing read you dumb f**k. I never said anything about Halyna. Its nearly impossible have have a conversation with someone like yourself who is clearly borderline retired. Now STFU and let the adults discuss.

Who says he did? The FBI destroyed the gun in testing and the Sherrif's department lied about the ammo.

What will they call the show? Active Shooter?

IDGAF, I wouldn't waste my time just knowing his name is attached to it. Next Charlie Manson will get a reality show.

Maybe, "Up Yours, MAGAts!"

See...the road to the Presidency now runs through your own Reality TV show. Baldwin is going to run for President.

God, I hope not.

We have enough celebrity twits out there.

So why did he point the gun at the cinematographer, thumb back the hammer and pull the trigger.

If she was running the camera, they would be going for the action shot from the POV of the victim.

 

[hadit]

In your opinion. I think the person on set responsible for firearm safety is the more guilty party.

Absolutely, the person who is tasked with firearm safety should be on the hook for this, but as always, the person shooting the weapon is the last line of defense against this happening. He should have had enough training to know if he had a live round or not. Guns are dangerous when handled by those who think they're toys.

Baldwin's finger was the one that pulled the trigger. Ultimate accountability.

Everyone needs to get with the new program. Alot of the people in power now were not in Politics 10 years ago.
Nearly all the top people now in power – including Trump of course but also Musk, Gabbard, Kennedy, Lutnick, and so many more, to say nothing of the voters themselves – are refugees from the Democratic Party. Coalitions have dramatically changed. Voting blocs have migrated. And policy debates and priorities are nothing like they have been.

The old two party system has been hacked.

Well he thought it was a safe prop because he was on a movie set. He wasn't out drinking beers and wilfully mishandling firearms with his buddies. I don't expect an actor to know anything more about gun safety than I expect them to know about internal medicine when they pretend to wield a scalpel on set playing a surgeon.

I expect that ANYONE who handles a real gun must follow the rules. Not mature enough to know what he's doing? -- has no right to have a gun in his hands.

Period.

Rules so simple a 10 year old understands them.

I do expect actors to be held to a minimal standard of competency when handling firearms on the set. That means they need to know what is going to happen when they pull the trigger, especially if they are pointing said firearm at someone else. Being an actor is no more shield from responsibility than being an absolute amateur handling a first-time gun purchase without any knowledge of basic firearm safety.

Obviously, this was an accident, I have no doubt, but there was a serious lapse in safety precautions, and ultimately the last line of defense preventing such accidents are the shooters themselves.

The question is whether he knew it was a real gun. I think all of your are missing the premise of the whole acting thing.....

Sure. But he's at work, acting. The person ultimately and legally responsible is the person hired to do gun safety at the work place for the people who are acting and might not know what the fuck they're doing or even holding. You don't have to actually know what you're doing to act like you do. That's the whole point of their job.

1. Yes, she is, and in this case was sentenced to 18 months for it.
2. Actors should be expected to have basic firearm competency, as they are the ones pulling the triggers.

It doesn't take a lot for them to be trained, and they absolutely should be. It doesn't take very long to lay down the rules and for the armorer to go over with them what is in the gun and what not to do on a crowded set. It sound like in this case no one actually checked to be sure there were no live rounds in the gun.

The assistant director who handed him the firearm checked and declared it cold. He just did a shit job of it apparently. I'm not sure if the armorer bothered to check before she handed them over to him.
