Alec Baldwin Shoots two, Kills One

Terrible incident.


Couldn?t happen to a better guy.

I'd say it primarily happened to a woman, myself.

But that is mostly picking hairs. Once a couple months pass by I doubt the personal tragedy affects him that much...
His resume/career are a bit tarnished by it which will ultimately bother him a lot more imho.

Her husband and childs life though? FTL. Except of course they will never have to work again if they feel so inclined, but $ doesn't replace a mom.

Why was there live ammunition in the prop box? Seems to be asking for a negligent discharge...

I think you are perhaps missing the gist of my post.

It is a terrible tragedy for those innocent parties involved.

As far as AB goes- fuck him with a RUST covered cactus. He has made it extremely clear that if your were a supporter of the last president you should be loaded onto a cattle car and never seen again.
He is a vile and hateful waste of oxygen.

I hope this incident haunts him every waking moment and I hope he lives a long, long life.

I'm not picking on you BP, I get your original point.

My point, TLDR: Imagine if Obama shot someone you love, and all a ton of people talked about is how Obama deserved it. It just doesn't hit well, so to speak.

Hannah Guitierrez-Reed, the 24 yr old armorer, claims she planned on doing some shooting during down time and brought the live ammo with her, check the article I linked earlier. Total tragic rookie mistake.

Her dad is Thell Reed (Google him), so she's not a newbie. She grew up in the gun world and movie production. There's more to this story.

She's not a newbie. I reckon more than a few of us have taken guns with us to work with the intention of shooting afterwards. Maybe with coworkers. I agree, there is more to this story.

There is a lot written about a prop gun and a blank gun being used.

There is also news that it was a real gun accidentally given to the actor.

I didn't think real ammo could be used in a prop or blank firing gun. But I know very little about it.

If an actual, loaded gun was given to the fool in front of the camera then it really isn't his fault, as much as I dislike him.

Actors are automatons. They stand where told, they read other people's words, the entire production is geared around making them look their best. They then are told how brilliant and talented they are while making tons of money. It is no wonder when they open their mouths in the real world they come across as complete idiots.

Another point I have read about is the complaints that a non-union crew was used when this occurred. I know almost nothing about movie production but blaming this on them seems self serving. People are people and can fuck up regardless of paying union dues.
