1) I know he has had anger management issues. He has also shown big mistakes as a father. I have already called him a prick...because he is.

2) Right now it still appears that this was an accident. They are describing it as happening during the filming of a scene, so as of now it does not appear that this was due to any malice or negligence on Baldwin's part.

3) If the facts show that Baldwin did act maliciously or with negligence, I will excoriate him.

JeezusH! You are the biggest arsehole on this board.

INCORRECT! Not even a little bit of one.

Yes he is - the classic self-righteous know-it-all, knower of nothing. The prototypical middle-aged white American and half his cr@p is all because of festering white guilt anyways.

The big tragedy on this message board which pales in comparison to the obvious tragedy that a woman lost her life, a husband his wife and children their mother is that people think it's appropriate to jump on here and start leveraging their own little pathetic agendas (social, political, whatever) using this as the catalyst. It's absolutely disgusting. F-ing people need to take a good hard look in the mirror, seriously.

Nope. You know nothing. I do not subscribe to white guilt and have zero of it.

Your second paragraph is actually CORRECT though...but it is conservatives who have made this tragedy a political issue when it isn't.

Talk about method acting

A chick was in charge of the guns on set. Shocker. Hannah Gutierrez according to the affidavit.

How do you people think movies get made? Is every camera shot just like a stick drawing with al lthe people in it?

It seems quite obvious that this was a generic movie reverse shot, whre the camera is focused on the actor, who looks like he's looking directly at th eother person, when he's actually facing the camera. He shoots in that direction, and it looks like he's shooting the other character.

And who would be standing near the camera?

The director.

And the cinematographer.

This site is like what would happen if RedState had a sports section.

Excuse me, but I believe the predominantly Democrat areas are highest in homicidal violence due to criminal activity, especially with guns, and direct abortion (even if no death certificate is issued direct abortion is still homicide).

The affidavit says the gun was given to him by the assistant director, not the prop master.

"According to the records, the gun was one of three that the film's armorer, Hannah Gutierrez, had set on a cart outside the wooden structure where a scene was being acted. Assistant director Dave Halls grabbed the gun from the cart and brought it inside to Baldwin."

Why the F would they have live and laden rounds on set, or at least not have the live rounds and their respective firearms meticulously locked away and tagged?

Exactly. With the union walking off, it almost seems nefarious... Unions are ruthless and despicable.

The fix is in. Hollywood is trying to lay it off on the scut working flunkies to save the liberal icon Baldwin. Never mind that he killed a female and a POC. All that matters is power to Hollywood, and Baldwin is in the inner compound.

How in the heck does a "prop gun" kill someone?

Because it may be a real gun.

Prop guns often are real guns.

Typically they are loaded with either squibs (bullet and no powder) or blanks (powder with no bullet).

The combo is what Killed Brandon Lee. A squib was fired which put the bullet in the barrel ( the primer has enough pop to move the bullet a bit), the. A later blank forced the bullet out at full velocity.

Is this a theory about what can happen, or a fact that you got from someone on the movie set?

It was reported in court during the ensuing lawsuit.

The media keeps calling it a prop gun making it appear that it is some sort of fake gun. The word "prop" merely means theatrical property. A car is a prop, a house is a prop, a ring is a prop, a bicycle is a prop, a suit of armour is a prop, a knife is a prop, and a gun is a prop. Calling it that in no way defines what type of gun it was. It could be a real AR-15 and be a prop. It could be a glock 17. It could be a 12-guage shotgun. Or it could be complete fake gun. But they are confusing the public. If you practice acting in your backyard with your friends and use a real gun and somebody gets killed, the media will just use the type of gun in the article. "John Doe shoots Jane Doe in his backyard while fooling around with a loaded 12-guage shotgun. He claims that he didn't know the gun was loaded because his neighbor checked it prior to handing it to him." Do you think John Doe is innocent?

Gun forums are blowing up with this story. Lots of apparently true details and a lot of speculation.

This is tragic. Holy moly I can’t imagine the terror the ensued right after the shot.

Nobody wins. Tragic on all sides.

Not tragic for everyone because somebody put a round in the gun.

I agree with this. It is completely irrelevant that this event occurred on a movie set. The scenario is no different than Jethro handing Cletus a gun, telling him that it’s unloaded, and then Cletus ends up shooting Daisy. Movie set “protocols” have no standing in the court of law and do not shield someone who pulls the trigger of a loaded gun from the legal repercussions of their actions.

The media is calling this a prop gun with the implication that this gun is somehow exempt from the precautions one would take when handling a real, loaded firearm. That is not the case. It’s a word game that has no basis in reality, like so much of the mainstream media fodder these days.

Bottom line: Never take someone’s word for it that a gun is not loaded. If you pull the trigger of a real gun, you are the one who will bear the responsibility for whatever actions result.
