There was a history of gun recklessness on that set. 
That's why part of the crew quit earlier in the day.

No, they didn't leave because of reckless gun use.[/quote]

Just go back and find the link where they listed the reasons why they left. Lack of gun safety was actually one of their many reasons for quitting. Another reason was sleep deprivation. Alec Baldwin failed to address any one of the problems.

That wasn’t AB’s job.[/quote]

No, but his job WAS to ensure that the equipment he used was being managed appropriately.  Taking a gun from someone who should not have been handling it WAS Alec Baldwin's job.  Not verifying with the armorer that the gun was unloaded and empty WAS Alec Baldwin's job as soon as he decided to take possession of it.  He caused that woman's death because of his failure to follow the protocols.[/quote]

Except that the AD's job is to oversee all safety on the set, and to supervise the armorer.  An explicit part of that is to be the person to double check each weapon after the armorer does.  So, asking the AD makes as much or more sense than asking the armorer.  [/quote]
