Alec Baldwin wept as he described accidentally shooting dead his cinematographer on the set of his film Rust during an interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos.

-snip-

He insists that he never pulled the trigger but said it appeared to inexplicitly fire on its own.

'The trigger wasn't pulled, I didn't pull the trigger,' he said, often having to pause to collect himself, or wipe away a tear.

'I would never point a gun at anyone at point a trigger at them, never.'

It's not yet known why the weapon was loaded with a real bullet.

'Someone put a live bullet in the gun - a bullet that wasn't even supposed to be on the property,' Baldwin said.

ummm its a single action. He had to have not only pulled the trigger and pointed it at her, he had to have cocked the hammer first.

The gun must have done it since he didn't pull the trigger! Proof positive that guns are the problem. /s

'I would never point a gun at anyone at point (sic) a trigger at them, never.'

Isn't that exactly what he did?

It's one of those out of control fire arms that went on its own to the set, jumped into his hand and then fired without even having the trigger pulled! Even a trigger guard wouldn't have stopped this vile weapon! Makes perfect sense to me. /sarc
