Yep, cuz he’s a VIP, and she’s just a cop.

In all fairness, the bar should be far higher for an officer of the law who has been trained in firearm usage and whose job is to serve and protect the public than it is for some idiot actor on a movie set.

I agree, but the fact Baldwin got nothing, not even a slap on the wrist, is disturbing. The gun didn’t go off by itself.

You know you or I would be sitting in jail right now if we had done that, as we should be.

Personally, I'm surprised she got any jail time at all. often, the only protection they need from the courts is their magical blue suit. I suspect that if the victim had been white, she'd have walked.
