    Why does a fake gun have fucking bullets???

      It wasn't a fake gun obviously. It was a real gun mistaken for a prop gun.

      The propmaster was responsible for it and couldn’t be bothered doing their job properly. They also got their job thanks to nepotism.

      For that particular film shot they needed a real gun, but because it was used as a prop it’s by some stupid reason called a prop gun! Most prop cars, are also still real cars.

      He fought the crew to get the gun he used in the shooting! I can't remember the gun but the one they wanted to give him wasn't big enough! He fought and they gave in and gave him a big gun! Also what about the rumors that they were drinking beer and shooting the cans in the evening after filming?!?!

    He didn't pull the trigger? Does this mean Alec Baldwin the 'person' didn't do it but rather Alec Baldwin the 'actor' did it?

    In one of John Schneider’s videos; he said this was not a prop gun but a real gun. He explained that a prop gun would not be able to shoot bullets. I trust what John Schneider says.

    @TheRealRehman Před 11 měsíci +9

    This is such a dumb case.
    Why would Alec Baldwin be charged? His only crime is not knowing the difference between a prop gun loaded with fake bullets and a real one. By that logic, i should be charged as well.
    The only person(s) responsible for this crime (Rip Halyna Hutchins) are the people in charge of props.

      Wasnt it his production though? So he is responsible for hiring the staff in some capacity?
      Thats the sad thing with cases like these, it is about negligence, no one probably meant to do harm, but someone died and that needs to be answered for.

      @@Mussa.Hby that logic Alec Baldwin's parents should also be charged because they gave birth to him.
      I agree that somebody should be held accountable and face justice but should it be the man who had no reason to suspect the gun was loaded with real and properly can't tell the difference and trusted the people who could too do their jobs or should we blame and prosecute the people who's job it was to make sure the gun was loaded with blanks.

    So if you have a job, and you're provided with an item to do that job, is it then the employees responsibility to ensure said item is safe? For example, suppose you drive a truck provided by your employer. You do everything safely but the brakes give out due to the employer not servicing as required, or because of the negligence of another employee. Someone dies as a result. Is the driver at fault? How is this different?

    Well … that’s karma . Alec Baldwin was an arrogant snob . He is an idiot too ! Since when do you point a gun whether it’s real or a prop and shoot at a perfectly innocent person ? Also as a supposedly trained actor he should have know that any props he is given to use he should have personally checked it out ! It’s like parachute jumping ! YOU NEVER LET ANYONE BUT YOURSELF PREPARE YOUR PARACHUTE ! I hope he goes to jail for negligence ! 😡😡😡
