A single live round that was discharged from a prop gun by actor Alec Baldwin on the set of his latest movie struck both the cinematographer - who was killed - and the director of the film, according to a prop masters union.

TT you crack me up. I worked with a guy who reminds me of you, but he was 180 degrees the other direction.Liberals with weapons are dangerous.
Read about that in the paper today (Wichita Eagle/kansas.com). Additionally:apparently many of the crew walked off the set earlier because of poor working conditions. this is what happens when you think the people below you are not that important to the success of the people at the top. Since Baldwin is apparent in charge of the production, the responsibility should be on him. regardless a 42 year old mother, wife, daughter, sister, and friend to many lost her life because of someone else's negligence.
Rule number one in any gun safety book. Treat every gun as if it were loaded!
I dont know why there would be live ammo on the set either. That seems it would be a recipe for disaster.
Pointing a gun at someone you don't want to die is something of a necessity in movie filming. That's why they're supposed to have the extra precautions in place. There are a lot of movies that couldn't have been made if actors weren't allowed to recklessly wave guns around.Well yeah i would assume he didnt know it was loaded. Doesnt change the rule and is the very reason for the rule. Wasnt his fault right up to the point he pointed it at something he didnt want to die and pulled the trigger. That is something you just dont do. I am well aware of how they work firearms on a movie set, thats why i am wondering how live ammo got there.
