You don’t have to intentionally pull the trigger.
You just have to have your finger on the trigger.
The judge said as much to Nathaniel Rowland as Rowland kept insisting he was innocent despite overwhelming evidence against him. The evidence was so over whelming the jury only took an hour to reach a murder 1 guilty verdict..
.alec is no different than any other murdering psychopath.
This was a single action revolver. Not only did someone have to pull the trigger, someone had to pull back the hammer before pulling the trigger. If the hammer is not cocked, pulling the trigger would do nothing on a single-action revolver.
Simple experiment.
Seat Baldwin at a 5’ wide table and make it so he can’t reach across it.
Load the pistol he used to murder the woman and place it on the table, directly opposite him and pointed right at him.
No one touches it after it has been placed on the table.
Lets see if it goes off.
As a former tv/film crew member and producer, it might be that Alec is arrogant enough to think that the crew will perjure themselves for his butt. Maybe a newbie PA would, but seasoned crew will likely have no hesitation in burying him.
With one in the chamber of a revolver
you don’t have to pull the trigger
all you have to do is pull the hammer back ( fanning) and let it fall
BOOM !!!
Baldwin thinks he can weasel word his way out of this.
Wrong.
It’s interesting. If you go into prisons and interview inmates who are in for murder via fireams the vast majority will say the exact same thing. They all will say “the gun went off”. Doesn’t mean a thing and must be some built in human defense mechanism.
Of course he didn’t pull the trigger; his DOPPELGANGER did it.
As I was reading your comment I thought of something.
It might be possible that leftist snowflakes who have no clue about firearms may actually believe that they can "go off" without a trigger pull.
They have been conditioned that firearms are dangerous, especially because they can "go off half cocked" as the saying goes.
If those pathetic fools ever force a war, they will be the first to be culled from the herd, yet and even because, have no clue.
The SUV did it!
...because he actually believes this himself, he’s that ignorant. Now there’s reason to investigate deeper because he is clearly lying.
Single action……
He had to unholster, aim, cock, and fire (pull the trigger)
Either he is lying or something is very wrong.
..... Well Alec .... I am sure there is plenty of Video Evidence to prove otherwise .....
I think ol’ Alec feels some pinch.
I think you might be on to something.
He’s a delusional leftist who believe guns go off in your hand while pointing it at a target.
And bottles of whisky mysteriously jump off the table and pour whisky down your gullet in Baldwin’s world.
This inane drivel is aimed (no pun intended) at low information people who are so ignorant that they actually believe a single-action revolver can actually fire off a round spontaneously without being cocked and without the trigger being pulled.
