There is no way on earth that Baldwin did not know gun safety
. He’s worked with guns and weapons specialists on dozens of films and movies. There is no way a live round gets in there unless someone put it in there on purpose. The armorer wouldnt do it on purpose.norhing to gain and everything to lose. Everything points to Baldwin. Find the motive for killing her and you’ll find why he did it If this were any situation except a rich and powerful actor they’d be rotting in jail

Weren’t the crew using that weapon for target practice in between shoots? (no pun intended)

Absolutely insane to use a prop for live fire.

Since it’s Baldwin’s gig, he allowed that to happen.

I agree with that.

I also believe that he failed to practice that gun safety personally.

I cannot speak to motive.

He worked in Hollywood where strict gun safety protocols were enforced. He didn't want that. Too expensive when you can have employees tripling up on various duties. In Hollywood, the armorer only hands the actor/actress the gun after first checking it. Then the actor/actress checks it again. It's cheaper and faster to fly by the seat of your pants haphazardly out of state (away from Hollywood) and you do things your way. They already had two gun incidents on set. That was warning enough for most . . but not cheapskate AB.

He's actually called himself an expert on several public occasions. I suppose it depends on what you consider expertise; certainly he's killed more people than I have.

The trigger issue is misdirection. He pointed a loaded gun at two people. Even if it only had blanks that was a dangerous and irresponsible thing to do and against every safety rule both movie sets and the real world - they're really the same thing, as a dead woman demonstrates - require. Baldwin has attended numerous on-set safety briefings or he wouldn't be in the business. He just didn't give a rip.
