It's entertaining to watch the liberal hypocrites scramble and cover.
Like cockroaches when the light comes on.
Their anti-gun diarrhea meets with the irony of having to use guns in their movies to sell tickets.

There are Twitter reports that the “armorer” took the gun off set between takes for some shooting with live rounds.

I always assumed they had a firearms safety/arsenal expert in charge of all guns and usage, surely they aren't letting actors pick up guns/load and go film a scene ?
There was another actor killed a while back with a point blank head shot, can't remember who he was...but wasn't Lee. It appears another member answered the question in another thread(yeah, we have 2 threads on Idiot Baldwin) "Jon-Erik Hexum killed himself with a prop gun back in 1984."

There is a strike so many of the crew were locals instead of Hollywood regulars.

Baldwin fired the gun, be nice if the POS gets charged with accidental manslaughter. IMDb offers the following synopsis of “Rust,” which has now been halted: “A 13 year-old boy, left to fend for himself and his younger brother following the death of their parents in 1880’s Kansas, goes on the run with his long estranged grandfather after he’s sentenced to hang for the accidental killing of a local rancher.” I read this last night and thought how ironic. I am surprised no one here posted this yet. The irony of Baldwin playing the grandfather who is sentenced to hang for an accidental killing. You guys saying he should hang for it didn't even know you were quoting the script. I think the grandson is sentenced to hang, not the grandfather.... but still ironic!

Well, the headline stated a “live bullet”. So there’s that.

Baldwin will say that it's the armorer's job to ensure weapons are loaded with blanks only. Also, since he was firing towards the camera, the director may have told him to fire towards the camera or told the cinematographer to stand in front of the gun. The police probably would have arrested him already if they thought they could make anything stick. The one thing that could change that would be if they had evidence he was horsing around and/or threatening people.
Rust was a small budget movie that probably only had one prop person. That person might not be a weapons expert, and he or she might also have been working for 48+ hours straight, and blanks don't always look terribly different from wadcutters.
The movie will never be finished. The prop person will never work in movies again and will be sued into financial ruin. The movie company will be sued and their insurance will pay out millions to the victim's family. The director probably won't sue anyone if he wants to work again.
Baldwin's attorney(s) will hire PR people who likely are already arranging an Oprah moment where he cries on TV and talks about what a tragedy gun violence is and how he's donating his time and money to gun control, totally ignoring the hypocrisy of his using a gun to make a living.

I'm not defending Baldwin, but all actors are to study the script, be on time, don't show up hung over, know their lines, etc... I highly doubt there's 1 actor male/female that's ever checked the gun prior to filming, and that's 1000's of rounds shot through the years by many many actors.
It's someone's job to be in charge of the firearms, the animals, and even the food cart...but none of those are the actors job or responsibility. I don't like the guy, but do feel kind of bad for him considering the damage he's done to some people's lives...and have to live with the fact that he took a life, and wounded another.

Wonder if Trump will go on SNL and do an Alec Baldwin with a 6 gun impersonation?

Yep. You can bet your ass on the crying on Opra Tour. And a HUGE ANTI GUN PROPAGANDA BLITZ. Libertard Hypocrites like Baldwin love to blame everyone but themselves. The sad part is he’ll probably skate free because of a Libertard Prosecutor and Sherriff in Santa Fe. Or get off with probation and community service.

It's not a "misfire" if it fires and functions as it should.

That's what I thought. A "Misfire" is when the hammer drops and NOTHING happens. In this case, SOMETHING happened.
I'd rather die in a BAD gunfight than a GOOD nursing home.
