They contributed to the issue, but the ultimate responsibility is with the person pulling the trigger.

You've told us what you think, regardless of anything else that anyone else has said. B

You know there is more than one person here with that opinion right?

I would think that anyone who has grown up around guns or has been trained to use them would view a someone who pulled the trigger as responsible for knowing if a gun is loaded

I would think anyone would be more interested in what the people who actually work in the industry have to say.

It does not matter what "the industry" says. It’s the 1st rule of holding a gun. Know if it’s loaded.
If "the industry" says drunk driving is ok, does that make it so?

For driving, you need a license. Meanwhile, any actor can shoot a gun without adequate training. I would not blame an actor in this situation based on what I know.

Excuse me but how was being anti-gun deserving of karma?

He spoke openly against use of the guns. His lazy ass never bothered to learn the basics of the gun regulations and how to handle the weapon, because, you know, we should ban all guns. I didn't say he deserved it. But he has to live with this feeling for the rest of his life. I hope he will reconsider his views and will learn something about weapons. It is funny how life teach you something that you refuse to learn.

I'm conservative but I disagreed with you. The way this could have been avoided is if he refused to use guns at all. The issue here isn't whether he is pro gun regulation. The issue is that he chose to take a role that involved a gun and then violated basic gun safety measures.

Perhaps AB was naive about guns, but the armorer and assistant director whose jobs were to take care of the guns royally f'ed up.
They should have known better.

It doesn’t say that they would be against Baldwin.

Isn’t anyone else heard that the AD who gave him the gun was involved in another weapon misfire in 2019?

This. The actors rely on the experts.

It would go against Baldwin as a producer with shoddy hiring practices

She said she hasn't ruled anything out. Of course she hasn't! It would be inappropriate for her to do so, this early in an investigation. This is just clickbait.

Yeah and apparently there were 2 misfires that morning involving the same gun. It just seems like they hired inexperienced people or people known to be problematic in order to save money. I guess they planned to film the entire thing in 21 days. I bet they regret this now.

So if an "expert" handed you a gun they said was not loaded, would you put it to your head and pull the trigger?

That's what the director Joel Souza did. Exactly what he did.

AB is a cheapskate monster, IMO.

Exactly. Alec Baldwin seems generally reckless in his behavior.
