[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This will probably go the same way the John Landis/Twilight Zone Movie trial went.  They’ll be charged but found not guilty. [/quote]

I wonder if he'll plead a lesser charge, say reckless endangerment, which is apt. Hard to see how the armorer isn't guilty af.[/quote]

He pointed a loaded gun at a woman and pulled the trigger. If there are any responsible gun owners on the jury, he's screwed. [/quote]
There’s an argument to be made that he didn’t know it had real bullets. In an interview he also claimed the gun went off on its own. [/quote]

The gun had already gone off spontaneously a couple days earlier.  It's possible that it did go off on its own - even though that's supposed to be impossible.  [/quote]

Guns do not “go off spontaneously”. You can load a gun, chamber a round of ammunition, place it on the ground, and as long as nothing touches it, it will remain there, unfired, until the Sun consumes the Earth 5 billion years from now.

[b]This one did earlier.  [/b]Did Baldwin intentionally or unintentionally pull the trigger?  That's the most likely explanation.  Did the gun go off on its own?  This gun, maybe.[/quote]

No it did not, no gun can, or bullets in the box would be a danger. On this type of gun the hammer must be pulled back and released to have the bullet fire. That can be done by pulling the trigger, or the hammer by hand. There is no other way to have it fire. [/quote]
