“ Call me a conspiracy theorist, but union workers walk off set due to complaints about conditons and are replaced on the morning of the incident. Is it possible a disgruntled union worker placed a live round in the gun……”

———————————————————————————————

They walked off due to not getting paid for 3 weeks, their hotel rooms taken away, Covid Safety, and GUN SAFTY ISSUES.

The the final straw came when there were 2 accidental discharges with live ammo.

Baldwin’s shooting incident was number 3.

Why live ammo?

Because blanks don’t give the look of recoil that a live round gives.

So sometimes real ammo is used in isolated controlled settings.
But this was a low budget film so hiring and bringing in experts from L.A. was expensive.

Baldwin’s body double apparently had the 2 firearm incidents before the crew walked. So this was an on-going problem.

In a sane world he would serve time. I pray he turns to Jesus in repentance and faith.

Alec Baldwin has enjoyed a very long career. There isn’t any conceivable way that he is ignorant of gun safety rules & practices on set.

For reasons I doubt we’ll ever be told, Alec Baldwin chose to dismiss gun safety and it needlessly cost the life of one person and sent another to the hospital. Now what happens? Accident or involuntary manslaughter? Baldwin needs to do the right thing.
