The armourer and prop department checked the gun, then handed it to the assistant director who then gave it to Alec Baldwin. It's the prop and armourer's responsibility to ensure the prop is safe to use, not the actors until they introduce training. Stop deflecting blame

That gun was Not supposed to be Real, who is Fault here?

Redrum

He pointed at the camera and there were people behind. It was a movie, didn't you know?

Question is why would there be a live round in a gun in the first place. Someone knew it was there

The poor guy must be feeling so guilty.

PrincessBibiRF_ Peut être mais qui a mis la vraie balle ? D où vient elle ? Qui sont les responsables des accessoires à risques ? Cette balle n est pas arrivée toute seule par la vertu du st esprit Acte malveillant ?

Nope SOMEONE took a live round on set and loaded it into a gun. Stop shifting the blame.

Yes THE basic rule Shocked he hasn't been charged with murder Justice for the rich in America

Same o same When a child or adult plays with a gun, human or animal will die. Using a gun to do practice target at work! What where they thinking?

Maybe if he took a NRA 3 hour gun safety course on a Saturday this would not have happened

Absolutely true and it wasnt part of a scene as the person he pointed at was a crew member, totally inexcusable
