It’s a case of criminal negligence, IMHO.

Why were live rounds being used? Why weren’t they using a specialized prop gun that was incapable of firing live rounds? How did the cinematographer get into the line of fire? How could he shoot TWO people with the gun

Alex Baldwin himself shouldn’t escape responsibility. It was he who fired the weapon, obviously without personally checking for live rounds.

When the truth finally comes out, it will be shown that (smart) Alec Baldwin, while screwing around, pointed the gun right at the woman he killed (in jest) and pulled the trigger.

No “misfire”.

Lyrics
I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
Seasons came and changed the time
And I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
“Remember when we used to play?”
Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, I used to shoot you down
Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Now he’s gone I don’t know why
Until this days sometimes I cry
He didn’t even say goodbye
He didn’t take the time to lie
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down

Sonny and Cher, Bang Bang

I detest Alec Baldwin, but I don’t see why live ammunition should EVER be used on a movie set (except maybe by their security force.)

If you are nice all the time the left views it as a sign of weakness. I say fight back and tell them what you think.
They will try to censor you as we see happen but the truth gets out there. Example all the protest going on in europe and Australia over the lockdown and vaccines which are not covered by the corrupt media but we can still view news of it on the internet.

I imagine that our side would like nothing better than to trash and destroy Mr. Baldwin until there's nothing left of his life but a scorched corpse.

We would stand over his charred remains and proclaim to all who worship the Left, "THIS is your end! Cease your idiocy or face the consequences!"

Yeah, it's a bit over the top. But after I read about all the pure evil being perpetrated on us by those on the Left, I kinda think even THAT isn't enough.

But then...

I am reminded of a scene from 'The Chosen' where James and John want to call down fire from Heaven to destroy their enemies...and how Jesus reacts. Watch this...

Season 2, Ep. 1 of 'The Chosen', "Sons of Thunder"

Mea culpa. Mea maxima culpa

Betcha can’t where I actually care. You are implying the cinematographer was deliberately shot with no proof other than Alex Jones type horsehockey... which means you have nothing. You’re overthinking things. It’s time for you to shut up and let the grown-ups talk.

I wonder who they will get to play Alec Baldwin.

How about Trump for more Karma.

Former filmmaker and former US National Shooting Team member Peter Lake's quote of the day from a NYPost article:
"The buck stops with Alec Baldwin on every level. It looks very bad for him. At least the captain of the Titanic had the good sense to go down with the ship."

Not criminal negligence. It’s not possible to accidentally load a live round into a prop pistol. This is murder.

Whoever did it, it’s murder. Just a question of who and why. We already have a maniac on the set who is the prime suspect.

He, while on national TV, urged people to stone Henry Hyde's family for his daring to investigate Slick Willie.

If you can't, comfortably, get on the other side of that, I don't know what to tell you.

his article is about four times longer than was required...
**********************************************************
I would add that the official legal reaction to this event will show the usual liberal/conservative bias without a doubt.

What we as conservatives do or don’t do doesn’t matter. There will be a liberal media and legal response to the event that won’t do any harm to the standard party line regarding guns.

Baldwin will be sued for as much as possible, but eventually he will be a victim and the gun will have been the problem; not the finger on the trigger.

"He advocates for gun control while not taking any personal responsibility when he is handed a gun."

Bingo!
