Alec Baldwin may want to lie even lower if he’s still in Vermont.
The leader of a pro-gun group in the state where Baldwin is thought to be hiding out has publicly blamed the “Hollywood hypocrite” for his deadly on-set shooting — saying the star “broke every single rule of basic firearm safety that exists.”
Eric Davis, president of Gun Owners of Vermont, penned a scathing op-ed that ran in the Vermont Daily Chronicle on Wednesday — hours before photos emerged of Baldwin hiding out in the Green Mountain State.
He ripped Baldwin for “mismanagement,” “hubris” and not taking “individual accountability” for accidentally shooting dead his cinematographer, Halyna Hutchins, 42, on the New Mexico set of his movie “Rust” last Thursday.
“It was AFTER he was given a loaded firearm, from a questionable armorer under HIS supervision, whom he did NOT personally watch load the weapon, that he deliberately pointed a firearm at two people (presumably holding the camera) and pulled the trigger,” Davis wrote.
He then listed four basic safety rules that Baldwin, 63, appeared to have broken — all of which are “the very first thing one learns in an NRA safety class,” he wrote.

That could be, thanks for the info. It took a few versions for that to come out.
Has he been on a movie set before and know the protocols
“how and why should he be expected to know how to handle a gun?”
He failed to follow well established published safety rules concerning the handling of firearms on a movie set. Whether or not he has any gun handling skills isn’t relevant.
All he had to do was follow the GD safety rules established by the movie industry and that woman would be alive.
But he didn’t. Because he’s Alex MF’ing Baldwin.
That’s why this woman is dead.

As an actor who has handled firearms in the past, he should have known the basic safety rules by now. Actors get into their role by watching and interacting with real-life people they're portraying. This is no different. Want to handle firearms on the set? Know how to handle them first.
Applying the Pelosi and covid shots for kids rules, Baldwin is not guilty...
Because you have to fire the gun to know if anything is in it...
Don’t give loaded guns to hot-headed lunatics nor to Democrats in general.
