I wonder why he was pointing the gun at a cinematographer.

First rule of gun safety. Never point a gun at someone/something unless you mean to hurt them. Sheesh. Even my 6-year old grandson knows that.

Baldwin has a rap sheet of about 5 offenses.  Time for a little investigative effort, and see that this turd does some time. Negligent Homicide has a nice ring to it.

Fair enough; but since he's bird-dogged others with more justification for the shootings they were involved in - i.e., police officers - it's only fair that he be bird-dogged back.

Maybe he'll learn a little humility.

I don't want him to show humility...  I want him to go to jail.

Case in point...  Joe Blow stupidly texts and kills a person with his vehicle.  Alec Baldwin accidentally points a prop gun and it kills a bystander.  Joe Blow gets charged and likely convicted of negligent homicide....  What is different about Baldwin's situation?  plus the fact of his arrest record?

There is no way this happens without some seriously irresponsible gun handling.

While there is incredible irony here, this is just tragic.  The victims probably never saw it coming.

Incredible.  I always thought of Baldwin as an empty vessel, an arrogant empty vessel.

Well in Alec's case, I'll make an exception.   This is the same guy that said on a talk show that people should go and "Stone Henry Hyde and his family to death!"

Still makes no sense. Was this thing loaded with live rounds? I can't see blanks killing one and wounding another at any distance.

And if it was loaded with live rounds, why was the dumbass waving it around?

Even more irony is that Baldwin has shot 2 more people than any non-military and responsible  Briefer gun owner has.

brandon Lee killed himself with a prop gun by firing the wadding into his temple, but that was at very close range. At likely distances involved unless he fired two shots it’s hard to see that happening here. Musta been (a) live round(s).

Either way Baldwin is as big a dipsh*t as most of us always knew he was.

That would appear to fit the bill for negligent homicide.  He was monkeying around with a loaded firearm, and clearly acted contrary to any basic firearms safety rules - certainly the firearm safety rules that apply to movie sets must be quite strict.

Of course, being a politically-connected leftist, he won't suffer any legal consequences, other than, perhaps, being sued for civil wrongful death.

Tearful Alec Baldwin asked why he was handed 'hot gun' after fatal shooting on set: Report

Actor Alec Baldwin was distraught and shocked after fatally shooting a crew member on the set of his latest movie, asking repeatedly why he was given a "hot gun," according to a new report.

The 63-year-old star broke down in tears as he was questioned by Santa Fe authorities following the tragic mishap on the set of Rust, a western he was producing and starring in, Showbiz 411 reported . A single shot from a prop gun Baldwin apparently did not know was loaded killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and wounded director Joel Souza.

“In all my years, I’ve never been handed a hot gun,” Baldwin repeatedly said following the accident, according to the account.

'Course being handed a hot gun wouldn't explain why he pointed it at someone and pulled the trigger.

Even without that comment, I think there is enough justification for. a negligent homicide charge.  If it is true, that just ices it.
