I would love to see some close up photos of the firearm used, the bullet that went through one and struck another, and the ammo cases that were in that firearm.

The 'bullet'? 'The ammo cases that were in the firearm?' Maybe you ought to check on both barrels too.

Saying he loaded the real round? The gun was handed to him by the crew then he shot ...

I don’t think he’s going to be answering that one!

His family has already left their home.

I think the cinematographer was behind the camera. He was firing a blank at the camera to give the viewer the feeling of the character’s viewpoint who he was firing at.

Baldwin will not be assigned any fault for the accident. I’m sure payoffs are already under way to clear him of any responsibility.

Another take? That implies they were shooting a scene. The photos after the shooting show Baldwin was not wearing a costume. If they were doing another take of a rehearsal did he fire the gun on the first take?

Many rumors. Many versions of events. Lots of questions.

Baldwin probably isn’t culpable in this. The armorer and the 1st AD and prop-master are probably negligent. It’s a low-budget movie and there were safety concerns before this incident happened.

The Daily Beast has hinted that the "prop gun" may not have been a proper "prop gun."

I sometimes forget that even without using deliberately misleading language (which is done a lot), there's more than one way to describe things. A real gun used in the context of a movie scene as a prop can be described as a "prop gun" to distinguish from a gun that was being carried by an actor outside of the context of the dramatic performance, either for personal defense or as an offensive weapon.

Being the pathological, egomaniacal hothead from the day he was born, now that he knows what it’s like to kill someone. And, being a leftist, he probably got off on it.
