I've been saying for years we needed to put him behind bars for the protection of society, but everyone's been like "Oh, but it's so funny when he plays Trump" or "He was just so lol epic on 30 Rock" or whatever. We've known forever that he's unhinged and dangerous. And now a woman has paid the ultimate price. Let this be the beginning of the Great Celebrity Supermax Roundup.

Hours before actor Alec Baldwin fatally shot a cinematographer on the New Mexico set of “Rust” with a prop gun, a half-dozen camera crew workers walked off the set to protest working conditions.
The camera operators and their assistants were frustrated by the conditions surrounding the low-budget film, including complaints of long hours, long commutes and collecting their paychecks, according to three people familiar with the matter who were not authorized to comment. |

be that if it may, if true, but it's not an actor's fault for not being privy to what's inside what is supposed to be a prop gun. i read he was a producer, though.

i bet he takes a manslaughter charge. hard to imagine a scenario not involving negligence at the least.

"The actor is a co-producer of the film and plays its namesake, an outlaw whose 13-year-old grandson is convicted of manslaughter."
I don't think he understands method-acting. His grandson is supposed to commit manslaughter. |

This made me remember Brandon Lee's death during the filming of "the crow". Not a dissimilar incident. Worth reading for anybody blaming Alec for this:

Also, guns don't need to be pointed directly at someone to kill them. A slug can be deflected. People have been killed by shell casings. Etc. It seems like by now there would be a safer prop gun option... instead of using real guns with blanks. Last edited by MyOneAndOnly : 10-23-2021 at 11:29 AM. |

they just need to switch to 100% CGI for the boom/flash effect. not worth the risk of incidents like this.
dunno if anyone will face charges but obviously there will be civil damages. hard to judge without knowing more about what happened. obviously the two people shot are those hurt the most, but Baldwin will obviously suffer as well. can't imagine what it must feel like to shoot and kill someone accidentally the news is saying that there were issues with the prop gun before and people had walked off because of it. if that is true it the incident might be more likely to lead to involuntary mansluaghter charges |

The only way to stop a bad prop guy with a gun is with a good prop guy with a gun.

Would not be surprised if the idiot rookie armorer got charged, though. Can't find the article I was reading, but apparently there had already been two previous incidents on this set, thanks to her, where a loaded gun was accidentally fired. |

how the fuck does live ammo get onto the movie set? WTF?
in Brandon Lee's case he was killed by a piece of a shell that was lodged in the gun. When a blank was fired it pushed the shell from the previous round out of the barrel. firing blanks is still dangerous. |

Still can't find that article I was reading, but the live ammo was present because, between filming, the armorer and a few other folks liked to shoot target practice with the guns being used in the movie. This fucking moron. Also, apparently she handed the gun to Baldwin and shouted "Cold!" meaning she'd checked it, as she's supposed to do every single time, and she had of course not checked it.
I'd just say I hope she never works again, but this was only her second time being an armorer, having flunked out of three or four other careers before this, so I'm sure she'll just fail upward into some other line of work. I guess I hope she's charged and never allowed around guns again. |

the real reason is that IATSE (stagehands and production people union) is on strike in various locations around the country and this goofy armorer was a strikebreaker
