Alec Baldwin charged with involuntary manslaughter in fatal ‘Rust’ shooting: district attorney

Alec Baldwin charged with involuntary manslaughter in fatal ‘Rust’ shooting: district attorney. Live ammunition on the set that shouldn’t have been there, ammunition not checked for live rounds (Why wasn’t the gun empty for practice scenes?), the mysterious single-action .45 that required no trigger pull, failed to hold in the full cock position and the safety notch failed, allowing it to fire.

Note: We have an old single-action (non-transfer bar) pistol. I just checked it. With the hammer back it holds unless the trigger is pulled. If you hold the hammer with your thumb, pull the trigger, quickly release the trigger and continue letting the hammer down the hammer is stopped by the safety notch unless the trigger is pulled. So, even if the hammer failed to engage the full cock notch and went down when released – if the trigger wasn’t pulled the safety notch should have stopped the hammer.

Draw your own conclusions. We suppose the gun could have been defective, which takes us back to: why was it on the set?

Here’s an update from Daily Mail with more details and it includes the FBI report.

Alec Baldwin was charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter in the death of Halyna Hutchins.

Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, who was the armorer on the film ‘Rust,’ was also charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter.

Halls allegedly handed Baldwin a .45 revolver, telling him that it was “cold,” or safe. Prior to that, Gutierrez-Reed spun the cylinder to show Halls what was in the gun, her lawyer said.

Baldwin has maintained that he did not pull the trigger of the gun – once during a prime-time interview shortly following the deadly shooting and again on a podcast episode. The actor originally said he had pulled the hammer of the gun back as far as he could and released it, but did not pull the trigger.

Sometimes Hollywood liberals are so stupid

Sometimes Hollywood liberals are so stupid… all you can do is shake your head. Irony-insensitive Alyssa Milano, to protest Musk ending censorship of conservatives on Twitter, announced on Twitter itself that she had dumped her Tesla and purchased instead an EV sold by Volkswagen… a company literally founded by Hitler and the Nazis.

Harrison Ford frequent flier on private jets despite climate change activism. We’re so sick of these Hollywood hypocrites flying around the globe telling us we have to live in a cave with no fire because it causes climate change. When are they all going to fly on Southwest in the economy seats?

‘Rust’ crew describes on-set gun safety issues and misfires days before fatal shooting

‘Rust’ crew describes on-set gun safety issues and misfires days before fatal shooting. Hollywood needs to make some safety changes regarding firearms, including coursed by NRA certified instructors for everyone, including their dipshit actors who are clueless about firearms.

Safety protocols standard in the industry, including gun inspections, were not strictly followed on the “Rust” set near Santa Fe, the sources said. They said at least one of the camera operators complained last weekend to a production manager about gun safety on the set.

Baldwin’s stunt double accidentally fired two rounds Saturday after being told that the gun was “cold” — lingo for a weapon that doesn’t have any ammunition, including blanks — two crew members who witnessed the episode told the Los Angeles Times.

“There should have been an investigation into what happened,” a crew member said. “There were no safety meetings. There was no assurance that it wouldn’t happen again. All they wanted to do was rush, rush, rush.”

Shaq is retiring from celebrity status: ‘Out of their mind’

Shaquille O'Neal

Shaq is retiring from celebrity status: ‘Out of their mind.’ Shaq is one of the few sane voices in a sea of celebrity crazy people.

“These celebrities are going freaking crazy and I don’t want to be one. I denounce my celebrity-ness today. I’m done with it,” O’Neal told The Post, while discussing his new campaign with Kellogg’s.

“I don’t want to be in that category. Celebrities are crazy, they really are. Don’t call me that anymore. These people are out of their freaking mind with how they treat people, what they do, what they say. That’s never been me. I never want to be looked at like that.”

Disney’s Bob Iger Quits Gavin Newsom’s Economic Recovery Task Force After California Restrictions ‘Exacerbated’ Pandemic Troubles

Disney’s Bob Iger Quits Gavin Newsom’s Economic Recovery Task Force After California Restrictions ‘Exacerbated’ Pandemic Troubles. There is no doubt that California Governor Gavin Newsom doesn’t want to give up his newfound dictatorship. Neither do the locals. We have to wonder how many more businesses will boogie out of California before this is over with.

On Wednesday, it was reported, “Emblematic of the Covid-19-related struggles and tensions between state officials, medical professionals and businesses, Walt Disney reported that it had no other choice but to lay off roughly 28,000 employees from its Disney Parks, Experiences and Products segment.”

Disney, according to the Wall Street Journal, placed the blame on California’s government and asserted that the closure was “exacerbated in California by the State’s unwillingness to lift restrictions that would allow Disneyland to reopen.”

Hollywood’s identity crisis: Actors, writers and producers warn of ‘reverse racism’ in the film industry which has created a ‘toxic’ climate for anyone who is a white, middle-age man

Hollywood’s identity crisis: Actors, writers and producers warn of ‘reverse racism’ in the film industry which has created a ‘toxic’ climate for anyone who is a white, middle-age man. Well, this is the world that the Hollyweird geniuses have been advocating for. Now that it’s becoming a reality, they’re not liking it. You made your pigsty, now wallow in it.

Shaken by #MeToo, paralysed by Covid-19, the $50 billion film industry is finally emerging from a four-month lockdown – only to find a new and very different world, where tension is rising as surely as the thermometer.

A revolution is under way. White actors are being fired. Edicts from studio bosses make it clear that only minorities – racial and sexual – can be given jobs.

A new wave of what has been termed by some as anti-white prejudice is causing writers, directors and producers to fear they will never work again. One described the current atmosphere as ‘more toxic than Chernobyl’, with leading actors afraid to speak out amid concern they will be labelled racist.

HBO Max Pulls ‘Gone With the Wind’ to Add ‘Denouncement.’ This is asinine. Frankly, HBO Max, we don’t give a damn.

The company said that when “Gone With the Wind” returns to the recently launched streaming service, it will include “historical context and a denouncement of those very depictions, but will be presented as it was originally created, because to do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never existed.”
