The losses keep piling up by the hour. This country officially is dead to me. We’re all on our own.

The only “mistake” is that the victim wasn’t black.

I'm of the minority opinion here that the charges against Baldwin should be dropped.

The armorer Hanna Gutierrez Reed, on the other hand, may be, and I repeat MAY be liable for criminal negligence if it turns out that she did allow live ammunition to be used in the prop gun on a prior day, and she failed to properly clear it.

Keeping the firearms on set save was her responsibility, not Baldwin's. (As an actor. As a producer I'm sure he still has some civil liability for what occurred on his production.)

Two tiered justice system. That’s a ‘no Justice’ system.
Don’t expect the Biden’s to face justice either.

Nothing will change the fact that a woman died by his hand. If he has a soul that should haunt him every single damned day of his life.

Unbelievable, he pointed a gun at someone, pulled the trigger and killed someone. Certainly a degree of manslaughter or negligent homicide. No charges, such a farce. Yet they take an expired low level misdemeanor expired by statute of limitations convert it into 34 felonies and throw the book. It all depends on what party you are. Banana Republic are we.

He was a producer and he knew the crew was quitting because of lack of safety, and he knew the new armorer was not experience enough.
