Do you Stand Behind Alec Baldwin?

[Leopard23]

I stand behind Alec Baldwin

I would not stand in front of Alec Baldwin

[lightbulb27]

don't know. I wouldn't stand in front of anyone that has a gun pointed at me.

he made mistake and it cost someone their life. as well, she apparently stood there making assumptions. you don't point guns at people unless you are ok with killing them. you sure as heck don't pull the trigger, I don't care whats in there. not even with a squirt gun.

that said, what happened, I do not know.

Just send him to the front lines in Ukraine for 6 months... if he survives, he's got all kinds of scripts. win win.

[Kinkyhubby]

I stand behind him because it's safer that way. He gets what he deserves. Maybe all these Hollywood antigunners should stop making movies with guns in them.

[Anonymous]

No. I believe in consequence's for actions whatever those may be. They should fit the crime however.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

This is hard to stand behind him, but then I feel he needs to be investigated.

[Guy13]

I thought he was conservative or maybe it is his brother?

[AngryCarl2]

What? No, he's a liberal. Everyone in Hollywood is a liberal except Clint Eastwood.

[sage2021]

@Guy13 I am sure he wasn't a conservative. He was on the Saturday Night Live TV show playing the character of Donald Trump. Besides celebrities are usually democrats.

Who put real bullets in there that’s what happened to Bruce Lee’s son on a movie set I’m not blaming anybody, but it should be investigated 100%

[goaded]

I thought Lee's death was a blank at close range.

Oh, it was more complicated than that; a bullet stuck in the barrel from a previous take was propelled by a blank.

I don’t know enough of the details. As far as I can see this was an accident.

[Leopard23]

Do we let drunk drivers off?

[Exterminatore]

No but that’s not an accident. That’s intentionally being negligent.

[Leopard23]

So is pointing a loaded gun at someone snd pulling the trigger.

[Exterminatore]

I would agree, but did he know it was loaded? Standard practice don’t point at anything you don’t intend to shoot, treat every weapon as if it were loaded, finger straight and off trigger until ready to fire and weapon on safe until ready to fire.

Had he practiced gun safety 101 this probably wouldn’t have happened, so certainly there is some negligence, however I don’t expect some guy who has no formal training with firearms to use good judgment. Is it far though to call it negligence or ignorance?

I’m not defending him by the way. I know very little of the details regarding the matter. It doesn’t interest me much, but I can tell you I wouldn’t have done what he did and at best it was foolish of him.

[Leopard23]

It's hard to believe a guy who has been acting since the 80s in movies who has handled many guns in his movies have never had any gun safety training.

[Exterminatore]

Fair enough. I’m surprised they even use real guns and apparently use live ammo for some stuff too. I though the guns were just props that didn’t function in post cases and that gun shots were blanks or some other kind of special effect.

Apparently they must use real ammo for certain situations, otherwise why was it even present that day? Also who loaded it. It’s pretty easy to tell a blank from a hot round. How that mistake got made is what I’d like to know and who loaded it.

[Leopard23]

All it really would take is a real bullet finding it's way into the blanks ammo box or a loaded gun getting mixed up with a blanks gun. Think about how many shows involve guns and they maintain strict gun safety. There's not one single person responsible for this.

[Exterminatore]

You’d think those would be kept separate and that there would be strict protocols. Like not having one accessible while the other is to avoid mixup.

[Leopard23]

Well you'd think they'd be checked, double checked and checked again by another person. But you'd also expect Alec Baldwin not to point a gun an pull the trigger

[Exterminatore]

Fair enough.

[Anonymous]

Yeah, from what I understand standing behind him is the safest spot to be in. 😆😆😆

[exitseven]

A year in jail would do him a world of good.

[Anonymous]

That's the only place to stand safely. Otherwise you'll get shot in the face

[InsecureLivesMatter]

Yes because he is Haley's dad who is also her cousin

[Dargil]

The meme took the word out my mouth.

[Anonymous]

I have no interests in celebrities.

[gorydetails]

I’m certainly not standing in front of him.

[Anonymous]

I stand behind Alec Baldwin

[BarryLiverstone]

I’ve never met him

[Willoughby23]

Hell no!

[Anonymous]

Hell no. He's lying.
