    Next question;

    Is this the end of Alec Baldwin?

    Assuming that Baldwin can find a way to get by the fact that he ended someone's life, will he have the ability to act again?

    Will Hollywood work with Baldwin again, knowing his past behavior and possibly culminating with this negligent tragedy?

    Are you kidding?
    Hollywood?
    Why would you think they would do ANYTHING other than fawn over him?

    With his past history of explosive and anti woman behavior I think he is done. My guess is that he was acting like a bully and ******* on that set and that will come out. He also did not insist in looking at the empty chamber before accepting the gun. He also accepted the gun from someone not authorized to touch it. Afterwards he was screaming about being given a hot weapon when maybe he should have been more concerned about other things. His tweets seemed like they were trying to absolve him of blame. I think he will be sacrificed.
    How about the girl, young, inexperienced, pretty to some probably with a Bernie bumper sticker. Her best defense is to blame all the white males who allowed her to make all these mistakes. If only she was transgender and a racial minority she would come out of this a superstar.
    AD an experienced white male with no valid excuse for what he did, they will be screaming for murder 1 and reinstating the death penalty

    They still fawn over child molester/rapist. What was his name, Pulanski?
    Baldwin will be okay.

    I apologize if this was already posted.



    Well, that's the way it "should" be done.
    Doesn't mean that's the way everyone does it.

    Like at work, other buildings tell us how they handle something safely.
    Then I go back to my building, where the boss laughs, shakes his head "no", and says, "If you don't fall, you won't need to worry about the fall protection procedure".

    I agree; however, in a court of law that would (should) never be allowed or used as an excusable offense. That would not hold any water with you or me.

    Does the fact that he was doing a film with this low of a budget indicate he was already having troubles, or is this something many of them do?

    Sounds like your boss and Baldwin are cut from the same cloth? Neither one should ever be handed a gun, correct?

    Oh, it's not just ONE boss.
    You should have seen when 4 or 5 bosses got a week of for violating a BIG safety rule.
    They were pissed.

    I would have probably been fired.
    But they thought the rules didn't apply

    How the bullet got there will never be figured out, but two things about this case seem indisputable:

    A) Alec Baldwin pulled the trigger

    B) It was pointed at Halyna Hutchins when it went off.

    What the hell was he doing?

    My predictions:

    1) A source of "dark money" will appear to bankroll completion of this film.

    2) A public-service announcement will appear at the end, with grave black-screen fade-outs referencing the "Halyna Hutchins, and the XX,XXX other victims of Accidental Gun Death in America."

    3) A portion of proceeds will be earmarked to A) the "Halyna Hutchings Scholarship Fund" for upcoming film-makers, and/or B) Giffords, or similar.

    4) Asholic Baldwin will make a teary PR tour of the trendy talk shows, talking up his movie and regaling us with his horrific mental health ordeal. "I had to finish the movie, Ellen...I just had to do it...it was the only therapy that made any sense to me...it almost killed me, but I had to push through it...otherwise, it would be like Halyna died for nothing...I owed her this."

    5) Film is nominated for an award, with Halyna Hutchins given co-photography credits.

    ...I'm with the bunch saying XXXX that guy. A turd of a human being, who in the next several months will show us just how much of a turd he really is. I hope I'm wrong. Maybe he'll disappear. Don't bet on it.

    Daily wire reporting he was practicing a cross draw from a holster while sitting in a pew.

    And they had just come back from a lunch break... Be curious to know if any target practice happened on break
