Well the deniability is so plausible when an actor can say "I was handed the gun and told it was empty" - gee he's so innocent. The minute this came out, I knew it stunk to high Heaven.
Honestly I think that's most definitely the hottest debate on this topic - whether he can be blamed for his lack of knowledge on the topic. My husband holds the same position, that he was told it's unloaded, handed a "cold" gun, etc. I happen to disagree. Same as a police officer will tell you that ignorance of the law is no excuse to break it, ignorance of guns and how they work is no excuse to kill someone. If Alec Baldwin didn't sit up on his high horse and look down upon all us "flyover hicks" for wanting to keep our guns and protect our families, if Alec Baldwin bothered to learn about gun safety and gave a shit about anyone but himself, that woman would still be alive. Bottom line - all it would have taken was a few seconds to check and verify the gun was indeed empty. So yes, I can blame him, and I do. You don't have to, but mark my word - more information on this will come out and show that he's not as innocent as he's trying to make himself look right now. But until then, this is what Alec Baldwin gets for being such a pompous, self-centered, self-righteous asshole. Zero sympathy for that asshole.
Honestly with the amount of misinformation it sounds like a psyop. I didn’t post my opinion. I was just trolling.
You guys know the deal. Treat any gun as if it’s loaded. Trigger discipline etc. you heard about people walking off the set the day before or whatever because he fired off the gun multiple times. Were the people that came through the next day not aware of it? Was he not aware of his gun firing real bullets? Someone died. Hollywood is a cult so whatever. They will cover it up successfully and he won’t face any retribution. Maybe it’s a lie that anyone died at all and the event will be used as just another argument for gun control
I don't think necessarily that he had the motive, or that he stood to benefit directly in any way. But I don't believe he's completely innocent in this either - it might come out he was doing someone a favor, or maybe just didn't care, or it could be something will come out about the woman who died that she might have been a threat of some type of a group of people that included him. I just think there's more to his involvement than what's being let on, that's all.

same, with the crew walking off and a replacement crew all ready to go, out in the middle of nowhere....
100% stinks...
My Grandma uses that saying and it is wonderful that you reminded me of her. Thank you.
:) that's awesome and you're welcome!
You can’t blame him for not knowing the guns magazine was not empty. He’s anti guns. He never held a gun in his hand

Baldwin has a motive, all right.
I hope this Snedeker guy is careful. Sounded like a lot of helos flying over continually.
Helicopter tours are very popular in that area, especially at night
