Aren't these part of the same crowd that want to ban private ownership of any and all firearms, using the excuse it will make our streets and society safer?
Good example of what they are talking about.....
We need laws where democRats can't own or even touch firearms....
Nor foreigners within our borders...

Is there a video of Baldwin portraying Trump on SNL where he says "I could shoot someone and not lose any votes"?
That would be epic.

I’m not going to read 20 pages across 3 threads to see if this has been asked before but WTF were there real bullets in the gun?

That's the real question, late last night they said(Sheriff dept)the gun was handed to Baldwin by the Assistant Director. And that all union employees were requested to leave the set well before the incident, and non-union "replacements" were brought in. There had been complaints of 3 previous "accidental discharges" of the exact same weapon, earlier in the week.

I also just read that the set armorer was the daughter of Thell Reed, so she should've known better.

Maybe smart, but lacking the cockiness to tell Baldwin to GFH when he asked to do something stupid. Immaturity can be a killer.

She placed three guns on a table for the scene and declared them all “cold”. The assistant director took one of them and gave it to Baldwin and told him it was “cold”.

Was the set armorer one of the Union members that left earlier?

‘It was also my first time being head armorer as well. You know, I was really nervous about it at first, and I almost didn’t take the job because I wasn’t sure if I was ready, but, doing it, like, it went really smoothly.’
Hannah had previously apprenticed alongside her dad who helped train her up, and revealed she had worried about working with blanks until she ‘figured out on her own’ how to make them ‘go when you want it to’.
She continued: ‘He took me from being completely green and taught me everything I know so far and by all means, I am still learning.
‘Dad has taught me everything but a lot of things I just kind of caught on by myself through observation, watching him do things or just knowing how the firearms work.
‘I think loading blanks was the scariest thing to me because I was like “oh I don’t know anything about it.” Stupid of the people in charge to hire her too. Should not ever, ever, compromise safety.

You think when she is talking about “loading” a blank she is talking about loading her own? Surely, she is not referring to the physical act of placing a blank in the firearm.

Sept 22, 2017. "I WONDER WHAT IT WOULD FEEL LIKE TO WRONGFULLY KILL SOMEOME" ALEC BALDWIN. Sounds to me like Hannah would make the perfect scapegoat. Just saying.

According to the Union President, NO UNION members remained on the set, they were all requested to leave prior to the incident. So Hanna couldn't have been the original armorer, if she wasn't Union.

Yup Mostlikely where it is heading to protect the stupid Actually the only safety measure when filming with firearms IS the armourer. They ARE responsible. Does anyone trust any of the actors who make movies to know about all aspects of firearms, safety while filming, various blank and dummy loads? That's the armourer's job. Just like you don't let Tom Cruise wire and set off explosives, you don't let actors or anyone else on set be in control of any aspect of firearms. This gal was dangerous, and had had firearm accidental discharges from that incompetence at least a couple of times before the fatal shooting on this movie. The idiots who hired her are incompetent as well.
