It doesn't matter.
Baldwin the producer had poor controls on the set, and Baldwin the actor pulled the trigger.
These stories are designed to do one thing: shield Baldwin from liability.
Nicholas Cage is a Leftist Moonbat like Baldwin.
It is a pattern.
They all have immature anger issues.
Granted, having someone do something dangerous and harmful like that would piss of anyone, but he and Baldwin are the kind of people who would get equally pissed if they got a Coke instead of a Pepsi.
When you’ve made Nic Cage mad……
I believe that this gal was a party girl who eventually used her fathers name as an armorer to get jobs in Hollywood. I am betting she has no real training. she just let people who worked tangently with her dad believe that he had trained her when the reality was that her dad may of took her a couple times as a kid to the range but that was all. A lot of theses jobs have no real training program and the way you get them is by apprenticeship and family connections
As the final holder of this gun, Baldwin is ultimately responsible for its
safety of people on the set.
Any one of us could have done her job better because we don’t see guns as playthings.
Not every Picasso can paint.
I couldn’t remember where I heard the term “armorer” before. It was Major Boothroyd (”Q”) in the James Bond movies.
Upon being shown the enhanced showroom features of the new DB5.
James Bond: You must be joking.
Q: As I learned from my predecessor, Bond, I never joke about my work.
She seems way underqualified for this type of position, especially with her cavalier attitude and false sense of expertise. Her photos of her handling guns looks like she has no respect for safety. Either way, Baldwin is ultimately responsible for her.
koolaide haired girl playing wi guns... what could possible go wrong?
Yes, the armorer was completely incompetent. Whoever was the producer who hired her should take responsibility for giving a safety-critical job to someone with no training.
Especially if that same producer had been told repeatedly that the production was unsafe including previous “misfires” meaning the gun worked exactly as designed.
Especially if that producer created protocols allegedly for COVID that prevented the armorer, as incompetent as she was, from actually being on set during the takes.
Especially if that producer also put bullet proof glass in front of the filming equipment but not the humans.
Especially if that producer also picked up a gun, failed to check that it was actually loaded, aimed it at a human being, and pulled the trigger.
