Prosecutors dropping charges against Baldwin

'Rust' prosecutors drop charges against Alec Baldwin after questions over gun misfire

New Mexico prosecutors have dropped criminal charges against Alec Baldwin in the fatal 'Rust' shooting, two people familiar with the matter say.

The replica of the vintage weapon — a Colt 45 revolver — had been fitted with a new trigger, making it possible for it to misfire, as Baldwin has said, according to the sources.

Huh? Is this even possible?

Sure, the sear might not properly engage (think "hair trigger") but it's really a moot point.....Nothing could happen until Baldwin pulled the hammer back first.

The left has created the "Baldwin defense". Blow away whoever you want, and just claim you didn't know the gun was loaded.

Wouldn't it be hard to film a western movie without guns...?

The bigger question is how do you shoot a western with people and a main star and producer who don't even know the first thing about handling them?

 

[jotathought]

Not sure that will work the same for you, but hey let us know

All in the name of Baldwin .. will do! Thanks for asking!

From now on liberal hollywood actors have to attend firearm safety classes before filming or be forced to use their fingers/hands as guns in movies while shouting 'pew'.


*** Hats off to Keanu Reeves for his prep for the John Wick movies. I watched a short documentary of how he attended training and did time on ranges in preparation for his movies. Ftom what I could tell he has great respect for weapons and is a big gun safety guy ... which you wouldn't know watching his John Wick movies...

Keanu Reeves is a good guy. Not your usual Hollywood lib.

 

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

Again I did not think it was criminal but Baldwin had the ultimate responsibility to check his weapon and he failed to do so. How do you square that.

I think it goes back to someone that has a fucked-up mindset where he thinks that if he paid for something (the armor's services) he bears no further responsibility.

I hope he gets fucked hard in civil court.....On top of the legal fees he has already incurred. Oh and good luck with him ever getting set insurance again.

.

You don't square that.

Four rules you learn in firearms safety before you even get to touch a gun. He broke three of them.

View attachment 778077AND THERE IT IS, FOLKS! You're 24K dyed in the wool lib-er-al. Guns are evil, guns must go! Guns! Guns! Guns! That is, when it is one black gang-banger shooting another. But catch one Hollywood liberal committing a gun crime, felony and murder, and they can't wait to let them off the hook!

Liberals BLEED hypocrisy.

Got it. You're all for selling guns to any stranger on the street with no background check, or even knowing the person's name, but you want to tighten restrictions on movie sets. How MAGA of you.

 

[konradv]

Why would they pout? Now individuals with guns can shoot people "accidently" and just claim they had a Baldwin moment.

I don’t know. Would it be fair to jail someone for an accidental killing, while letting someone who actively hunted those he killed, like Rittenhouse, get off?

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

How do you turn this into another nasty crack against Republicans? I’m disappointed he’s facing no penalty.

Not republicans. Magaturds. Nasty, nasty people.

 

[LAUGHatLEFTISTS]

MAGAs will be pouting for weeks.

Naaaaawww leftists will be celebrating the death of an innocent woman.

You mean someone who defended himself against a BLM pedophile rapist who was about to kill him?

 

[Lisa558]

Naaaaawww leftists will be celebrating the death of an innocent woman.

She was white. No WAY would he have gotten off if he killed a black woman. Black Lives Matter More.

MAGA hate for Baldwin had nothing to do with that gun accident. We all know that.

I don’t understand the contempt that leftists have for those of us who want to make America great again. Are they really that intent on destroying our country?

 

[jotathought]

I don’t know. Would it be fair to jail someone for an accidental killing, while letting someone who actively hunted those he killed, like Rittenhouse, get off?

Apples and oranges and your description of Rittenhouse is skewed. Rittenhouse doesn't negate that Alec Baldwin shot and killed someone.

Charges dropped against Alec Baldwin in 'Rust' film fatal shooting

Criminal charges are being dropped against Alec Baldwin in connection to the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on a film set in 2021, ABC News is reporting.

abc11.com

I have mulled this over in my mind ever since he was first charged. I have admired Alec Baldwin's talent and, though I have problems with him personally, I own a number of his movies because I see talent as God given.

I dislike Baldwin's personality and I despise his politics that I have seen as mean spirited, dishonest, and unethical.

Evenso I think what happened that day was a tragic accident totally unintended on anybody's part. I do not think Baldwin intended anyone any harm or even thought about it until he pulled that trigger. I can believe he would give pretty much anything to undo the harm that resulted.

Now the decent thing would be for him to pay off any mortgage or other debts the family might have, put Halyna Hutchins' son through college, make whatever restitution he can. He probably won't but that would be the decent thing.

But given how many unethical, dishonest, even dangerous people are out there among us with no fear of any sort of punishment, I honestly can't see how the world would be safer or justice would be served by putting Alec Baldwin in prison.

Everyone should be pissed off about this.
