Actor Alec Baldwin is facing criticism for a 2017 tweet he posted in which he questions “how it must feel to wrongfully kill someone.”

On Thursday, Baldwin, 63, was at the center of a Hollywood tragedy that unfolded on the set of the movie “Rust.” Authorities said that Baldwin fired a prop gun on a movie set that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Director Joel Souza was identified as the crew member taken to the hospital. He has since been released, “Rust” star Frances Fisher claimed on Twitter.

Twitter users are now zeroing in on Baldwin’s past social media activity and one glaring tweet he posted on Sept. 22, 2017 reads: “I wonder how it must feel to wrongfully kill someone...” The tweet also included a link to a Los Angeles Times article about a Huntington Beach police officer who was captured on video struggling with a suspect in a parking lot of a convenience store before shooting the man several times, killing him.

“this did not age well,” one Twitter user wrote on the thread of Baldwin’s tweet.

Wonder if it feels anything like he was thinking it would.

A real police investigation would seize that gun, check for prints or DNA on the spent casing, find out who bought the ammunition and really examine the relationship between Baldwin and the dead girl. He had to be very close and pointed that gun directly at her. Close enough that the bullet went right through her and struck another man. However sincerely doubt that New Mexico cops under the control of Democrat politicians will investigate Hollywood, liberal icon Baldwin.

Whoa, talk about misapplication. The Delusional Lying Leftist media can be EXPCTED to twist and turn meanings and applications for their own purposes.

Obviously Baldwin, a die-hard leftist (this also could change), was obviously criticizing the cop. Not really reasonable to read anything else into that statement unless again you’re a Delusional Lying Leftist.

Pray for Baldwin. He may get saved and become a believer soon.

I remember that incident, used to patronize the store in question. Did not realize that not so Smart Alec had weighed in (unsurprisingly). Truth of the matter was that those HB Cops were put in a heck of a situation, and all of their critics had the luxury of reviewing their actions, safely, from their You Tube stations. Sickening, on SO many levels . .

The officer was trained and doing his job to serve and protect. Alec was untrained and playing pretend in a useless movie.
