Alec Baldwin calls for police on film sets to monitor gun safety
One America News ^ | November 9, 2021

As Hollywood considers new safety measures following the fatal shooting during filming of Western movie “Rust,” actor Alec Baldwin said on Monday he believed film and TV productions should hire police officers to monitor weapons on sets.

Baldwin accidentally shot and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on Oct. 21 after being told the gun he was rehearsing with on the “Rust” set in New Mexico was “cold,” or safe to use, according to the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office.

...

“Every film/TV set that uses guns, fake or otherwise, should have a police officer on set, hired by the production, to specifically monitor weapons safety,” Baldwin posted on Twitter.

Police don’t do that. But hey, call my friends at the NRA! They teach gun safety.

It looks like this man isn’t going to be charged with anything. He has caused a death through his negligence.

So is the theory behind this, if he pulls a loaded gun and points it at another person the LEO would gun him down before he can murder again? Is that what he is saying?

No more guns in any television or movie production, let’s see how they get along writing those stories.

Hold on there, Alec. Hollywood types wanted to defund the police. So now you want to re-fund the police?

Pick a side, Alec.

This is like, after a drunk driver T-bones another car by running a four way stop, asking that a traffic light be put in. A single event does not warrant changes to the industry. I warrants ensuring those responsible for that individual event pay a price.

How about police to monitor just Alec Baldwin when he’s on-set? Baldwin appears to be the problem to me.
