Quoted: Rules are not laws. View Quote Gun safety rules define "due caution and circumspection" with guns. That's where they would look for that meaning. The dead body says that the person holding the gun did not exercise due caution and circumspection. No other way it could happen. Would you kill the woman and claim that it was someone else's fault because someone told you it was OK to point the gun at someone? |

Quoted: Baldwin is ignorant of guns. It was the armorers responsibility to assure the gun was safe. Baldwin is an idiot, but he is not responsible for an unfortunate death while "acting". He should have never been charged. I'm actually sorry for him to go through this, as much as I don't care for him. View Quote Mostly agree with you although I'm not sorry for him.

The armorer IS responsible. |

Quoted: I don't know if you are aware of this, but guns have rules that apply only to guns and nothing else. The person holding the gun can prevent any problems if they follow the safety rules, no matter what anyone else did. AB knew the rules. His father was a gun instructor. The movie armorer says that the movie set rules say that real guns are never to be pointed at anyone. Same rule they teach in every gun class. He also says the actor, the AD, and the armorer are supposed to check it together and demonstrate anything in the gun. SAG rules say the actor is supposed to object to any situation that they know is unsafe. If someone handed you a gun and told you to point it at someone and pull the trigger, would you do it? How about if they told you that someone else checked it and we are just pretending? View Quote Of course he's aware of it - he's on this website. ...but the real question is are you aware that most people - including actors - are not. Sorry but having a father, mother, sister, brother that has knowledge on something doesn't automatically imbue one with knowledge. That's not how human learning works. I have the clear belief that Baldwin didn't intend to kill or injure anyone. He was an ignorant asshat and the purple-haired donkey armorer that loaded live rounds in the weapon needs to go to jail. |

Quoted: Do we really want to put people in prison for mistakes? Actors point guns at people and pull the trigger routinely. Circumspection with regard to doing so is off the table. It's part of their job. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: He had no intent, and no knowledge that the gun was loaded. He was "acting". He is an idiot, but not guilty of a crime. 2019 New Mexico Statutes Chapter 30 - Criminal Offenses Article 2 - Homicide Section 30-2-3 - Manslaughter. Universal Citation: NM Stat 30-2-3 (2019) Manslaughter is the unlawful killing of a human being without malice. A. Voluntary manslaughter consists of manslaughter committed upon a sudden quarrel or in the heat of passion. Whoever commits voluntary manslaughter is guilty of a third degree felony resulting in the death of a human being. B. Involuntary manslaughter consists of manslaughter committed in the commission of an unlawful act not amounting to felony, or in the commission of a lawful act which might produce death in an unlawful manner or without due caution and circumspection. Whoever commits involuntary manslaughter is guilty of a fourth degree felony. I am sure you know the basic gun safety rules. AB knew them, too. His father was a gun instructor. They aren't hard to remember or follow. How is "without due caution and circumspection" defined with guns? How many separate violations of the safety rules are required by the person holding the gun before anyone gets hurt? See the video above by movie armorer Larry Zanoff. Do we really want to put people in prison for mistakes? Actors point guns at people and pull the trigger routinely. Circumspection with regard to doing so is off the table. It's part of their job. FFS, how many times have we been over this? |

Quoted: "Without due caution or circumspection" is defined with guns the same way as anything else. A professional armorer told AB, (who is not a professional), that the gun was safe. If you just had your tires rotated, and one comes off, causing a wreck that killed someone, is it your fault? You relied on a professional to tell you it was safe. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: He did a good job of explaining how there are people whose only job is to prevent firearm accidents from happening. AB is an idiot and could have prevented what happened, but it's because there are idiots like him that professionals are given the responsibility of making sure he doesn't shoot someone. That is the due diligence taken on behalf of the actors. They failed. AB broke rules, but rules are not laws. He also says that real guns are never to be pointed at anyone -- same rule AB undoubtedly learned from his father, the gun instructor. The NM law which I posted says that it is manslaughter if it was "without due caution or circumspection." How is that defined with guns? If someone handed you a gun and told you to point it at someone and pull the trigger. Would you do it? How about if they told you that we are just pretending now? "Without due caution or circumspection" is defined with guns the same way as anything else. A professional armorer told AB, (who is not a professional), that the gun was safe. If you just had your tires rotated, and one comes off, causing a wreck that killed someone, is it your fault? You relied on a professional to tell you it was safe. And don't give me any of that irresponsible idiot nonsense. Unless his IQis low double digits or he's got dementia, his LOOOOONG career in movies and television, much of it handling firearms, should have ingrained safe gun handling behavior into him. He doesn't like guns, but he uses them as tools all the fucking time. No, it wasn't that he was too stupid to understand the danger -- he was too arrogant to be bothered with following the rules. |

Quoted: If I'm a movie actor, "due caution" on my part is having a professional to make sure guns are safe. That's how they do it in that industry. Stupid people handle guns, so they hire professional safety people. THAT is their due caution. What you describe is worthy of suing AB in civil court if you think you can prove that he knew all about gun safety, but not criminal charges. View Quote |

Quoted: An assistant director handed him the gun, not the armorer. According to SAG rules, the armorer, that AD, AND FAB should ALL have checked the gun. FAB failed to follow workplace safety rules set forth in his industry, and was therefore acting negligently. Keep in mind, FAB was not only the actor responsible for verifying a prop a chimp could probably been trained to perform (a simple sorting task), but he was also the producer, responsible for the production as a whole. And don't give me any of that irresponsible idiot nonsense.

Quoted: Who gives a shit about the four rules in this context. The rules people are invoking are those of the SAG and the movie industry. FAB broke the rules, not of basic gun safety, but of his industry. He broke fundamental rules that were put in place after another actor died because of lesser practices. There was a reason people were walking off his set. There was a reason he had to hire a third string armorer. He was a careless, arrogant asshole who didn't follow industry practices. You, while claiming to be in the know, don't know what you're talking about. You're going just as much on feels as those you are disparaging. View Quote Wrong - I do know. You're the one here with zero legal ability spouting off nonsense on how he murdered someone. You might want to research / figure out what "murder" actually means. "He failed to do his job and murdered somebody." - You ...but hey - keep lecturing the rest of us about definitions or topics that even the most basic course on criminal justice would cover - let alone any sort of legal education. Further, the rules people invoked and that I responded to absolutely were the four firearm safety rules. Perhaps you could at least attempt to read the thread before spouting off even more nonsense? The fact of the matter is - you have very clearly demonstrated that you don't actually know the basics of the law and therefore - you don't know how to apply it. The prosecutors who do have some sort of clue disagree with you and guess what? - so do I. It's okay to be ignorant sometimes. Baldwin clearly was and that's why he hired an armorer. Unfortunately, he apparently chose a purple-haired woke warrior instead of someone competent. I'm sure he regrets that. |
