Being kind of a gun nut this Alec Baldwin “accident” has had my attention. The story did not add up. Then I came across this piece that sheds a lot of light on the accident.
I would like to hear Cog’s take on this incident.
From my perspective I was shocked to learn that functioning firearm were EVER allowed onto a set. That right there violates my training. Why? For what purpose? Makes no sense. It you are not going to shoot it then why does it need to shoot? That goes double for live ammunition. “Blanks” are bad enough and have killed folks in the past.
In the scope of world issues this is a minor pin point in time, a terrible tragedy of very limited scope. It has upset me because of my personal history. No one else need be upset about it, its just my burr in my saddle.

PIERS MORGAN: The more we learn about Alec Baldwin's deadly shooting 'accident', the more culpable he looks for being executive producer of a chaotic, dangerous sh*t-show run by amateurish cowboys that made the tragedy an accident waiting to happen
