Glad to see this. I strongly support the NM District Attorney's statement that "No one is above the law". I don't watch news reports like you linked, I prefer to read so I read the linked article. I had previously read a more detailed one that basically covered more of the DA's remarks and pointed out the enormity of the safety protocols that were ignored. On the other hand, based on the article I read, there isn't 100% consensus on Baldwin's off-camera role as Executive Producer, as some have more control than others or handle only certain aspects. But regarding his acting role, it was clearly documented that actors are expected to either check a firearm themselves or have someone do it while showing them, this did not happen. And the DA also pointed out that how the live rounds got on set is immaterial - that they were there was the huge safety violation. The one thing you always say I disagree with slightly. When it comes to actors in films, whether or not they should, they certainly do point guns at other people and possibly fire, or certainly did before modern CGI and such. Even if it was supposed to only look like it, (camera angles) I'm sure many are not so adept with a gun that they don't point at other people. Given other similar historic incidents (Brandon Lee, for example) there is little doubt they do point and shoot at folks. I do agree there is no need to with today's graphic capabilities. |

I should confess that I have detested this guy for a couple of decades at least. His thinking he is smarter than everyone really caught up with him as he shoot off his mouth to anyone who would listen and underscored it on national TV. That's him. An entitled loose cannon. And oh yeah, a mediocre actor. |
