Alec Baldwin’s Negligent Discharge: Unhinged Actor May Face Involuntary Manslaughter Charges

I read that about the armorer as well. It was negligent to hire her. That position 100% needs to be filled by somebody that knows what they are doing. An NRA member and vet would be ideal.

Maybe this has already been asked but how does a "prop gun" fire a live bullet?

Time to clean up the messy reporting on Alec Baldwin’s negligent shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and director Joel Souza. We still do not know what firearm was used, but the film was being shot on a movie set used principally for 19th Century westerns–Blazing Saddles and Jimmy Stewarts’ The Man From Laramie. So it is highly likely that Baldwin was shooting a revolver and not a semi-automatic pistol (e.g., Glock, Sig Sauer, Berretta).

Semi-automatic pistols are a 20th Century invention and became a staple of military equipment after World War II. There are two types of revolvers–Single Action and Double Action. Single Action means that when you pull the trigger the hammer is released and the gun fires. This was in widespread use in the West during the cowboy era. The cylinder that holds the ammunition is not easily removed and you must open a loading gate to insert only one round at a time into the revolver. Double Action is what most people associate with a revolver. That means when you pull the trigger it cocks the hammer and then, as you continue to apply pressure to the trigger, releases the hammer and fires the pistol.

There also is no such thing as an “accidental” discharge. If a firearm is fired unintentionally it is negligence. Gun accidents are caused by only two things–ignorance and/or carelessness. If you are holding a pistol, it will not fire unless you put your finger on the trigger.

A talented cinematographer is dead because at least two people did not follow the fundamental rules of gun safety–Alec Baldwin and the Assistant Director who handed him the firearm with live ammunition loaded. Then there are questions to be answered by the armorer (the guy or gal in charge of insuring the firearms and ammunition are properly stored when not in use and properly loaded with blank ammunition) and the person in charge of props.

The worst thing you can do when handling a gun of any kind is to assume it is unloaded and safe. It is that kind of negligence that gets innocent people killed. That’s what happened in New Mexico to this poor woman.

Even by pathetically low GLP standards, this thread must set some sort of record for idiotic conjecture by nincompoops.

Maybe missed in the conversation. if this wasn’t a lefty/globalists 3rd rate celebrity - he would be in jail, have a quick judgement and be in jail for 1st degree murder.

Anyone familiar with deadly force law knows this. Anyone that has taken a concealed weapons permit class knows this.

It's not other people's fault that you're a sociopathic liberal like Baldwin is.

Isn't he a catholic? All it takes is one priest to absolve him from his guilt. The catholics will make sure he never serves a day in prison. Be sure of this.

Was she tied to the railroad track?
