Nobody taught these people that all guns are loaded all the time. I'm still rehearsing and worrying about how I'm going to teach my grandchildren about gun safety.
My guess here is carelessness because of hubris and self-importance.
We never have to take this pile of dung seriously ever again.
Alec's prop gun joins Teddy Kennedy's Olds in infamy.

If it’s a “gun”, IT IS LOADED, even if you personally cleared it 20 seconds ago! And he fired at least two shots. Why? Was he rehearsing a scene? Or was he messing around and shot at two people believing blanks wouldn't injure anyone?

Not so sure. The sheriff is not referring to this as an accident. Calling it an incident.

Would be nice to know when he said that, and in what circumstances.

After reading the responses on this thread, I worry about the level of intelligence and knowledge of many of my fellow freepers. BLANKS CAN KILL! Please show us where anyone on this thread said blanks can't kill.

and I think in “Mercury Rising.” He has 145 credits. Probably several instances of prop guns in his films.

You would have to be at point blank range to get injured. Less than a few inches.

You would have to be at point blank range to get injured. Less than a few inches. Yes. The poster I replied to claimed that people on this thread were stupid for saying blanks can't kill. Nobody has said that.

Even if it was pressed against the victim the chances of death are not great. Killing 2 with one blank round? Riiiiight.

When President Trump comes back on the political scene, Dems will push for Baldwin to get an early release from prison so he can play President Trump again on SNL.

Just like Ted Kennedy killed more people with his car than regular citizens have with their gun, anti-gun Alec Baldwin killed more people with a gun than regular citizens.
It's 2021. How is it that a Hollywood production crew can't safely film a firearm scene in a movie where EVERYTHING is fake?
The five rules of firearms safety:
1. Don't ever let the government take your guns.
2. All guns are always loaded.
3. Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
4. Keep your finger off the trigger till your sights are on the target.
5. Identify your target (and what is behind it).

There are reports the gun had live rounds in it.
