Just one NRA gun safety course. Just one.

Must really be hard for him finding out the NRA was right.

I'll quote CNN, so the libs can't claim I'm biased.

'Rust' armorer 'mishandled' guns on previous film with Nicolas Cage, crew members say

Stu Brumbaugh, the key grip on "The Old Way," told CNN that Gutierrez handled guns on the set of that project in a reckless manner and that he urged the film's assistant director to fire her.

"There's a universal way to handle weapons on set and immediately red flags went up when I worked with Hannah," Brumbaugh said. "This is why I asked for her dismissal."

"This is why people get injured because of rookie mistakes," he said.

A source who worked on "The Old Way" and requested their name not be included for fear of professional reprisal told CNN they also had concerns about Gutierrez's work on the project.

"She walked out onto the set with live rounds with no announcement whatsoever to the cast and crew by her," the source said. "She never announced to anyone that she was walking on the set carrying firearms loaded with blanks with her."

"She didn't carry the firearms safely. She had pistols tucked under her armpits and was carrying rifles in each hand that were ready to be used in the scene," this individual added. "Firearms were aimed at people. She turned around and the pistols that were tucked under her armpits were pointing back at people."

Armorer says no live ammunition on set. Locked in safe over lunch.

Rust Armorer's Statement That There Were No Real Lead Bullets on Set Is 'Not Accurate,' Says Sheriff

[03Lightningrocks]

Anybody "normal" does this and they would be sitting in jail or out on a huge bail right now. Mr. Elitist Leftist Scum Libtard just skates on through. Alec Baldwin should be in for some prison time on this but there is no way his leftist political connections allow that to happen. I would love to be proven wrong but we shall see.

Alec Baldwin now interested in limiting the use of firearms on film sets:

I'll bet he is.
Now.

How long before his press conference when he says he will now focus on going after the NRA?

[philip964]

I have been told that for close ups they use cartridges with BB’s inside in place of gun powder.

Each bullet is shook before it’s inserted into the gun to confirm it is a dummy round.

I have been told they were rehearsing a close up of Baldwin doing a cross draw.

Yes I think we will be seeing Baldwin as a anti gun spokes person for the rest of our lives.

Headline on an article about Baldwin shooting and killing a woman with a gun:

“Donald Trump baselessly suggests 'nutjob' Alec Baldwin may have had 'something to do with' the shooting of 'Rust' crew members”

News is very easy on Liberals.

Along those lines, has anyone noticed that all the news articles, even Fox news, refrain from saying that Baldwin shot her unless they are quoting someone like Trump. They all seem to like the phrase that Badlwin was holding a prop gun that somehow went off, as if there was a doubt about it. No, Baldwin was holding a real firearm that went off when he squeezed the trigger (well maybe he pulled or jerked it - I doubt he knows to squeeze it).

I could accept saying something like Baldwin inadvertently shot her, but saying the gun somehow went off is really irritating me.

The propaganda media is just working overtime to insure that no thinking American can trust a word they say.

All lies, all the time.

I'm absolutely with you. To the point that I feel the urge to throw the remote at the TV every time I hear it. Or see an image of Alec Baldwin, for that matter.

And today:

Alec Baldwin calls for mandatory police presence to monitor weapon safety on sets following 'Rust' shooting
https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/a ... t-shooting

On Monday, Baldwin issued a rare social media post since the tragedy to note that he believes having a police presence paid for by networks or studios would lead to fewer gun-related mishaps. "Every film/TV set that uses guns, fake or otherwise, should have a police officer on set, hired by the production, to specifically monitor weapons safety," he wrote Monday.

And exactly what actions should the assigned on-set LEO take when ignorant, reckless, and negligent actors handle a firearm unsafely? Report the action to the producer? Oh...wait... Baldwin was a producer, so that won't work. Er... Threaten to withhold the actor's morning Starbuck's double espresso mocha cappuccino and replace it with regular coffee?

Script supervisor sues Alec Baldwin ( I assume for slander).

He said nothing in the script called for Baldwin to cock and fire a gun.

Well that’s interesting.

We should have known. Baldwin fakes for a living.
