Yeah, tell that to Alec Baldwin.


There’s really no difference between the two incidents imo. When you violate basic firearm safety people get hurt or killed. Whether you fail at multiple points to check a pistol on a movie set and kill someone or you fire a cannon at people, being fully aware they are downrange, there is zero excuse.

There is a huge difference actually. Alec Baldwin isn't responsible for the death of the actress because he was the actor who pulled the trigger, he's responsible because he was the producer of the film and was ultimately responsible for the insufficient safety controls that led to an actor pulling the trigger on set and firing a live round. It just so happens he was also the actor. Had another actor in the film been the one to pull the trigger, Baldwin still would have been responsible.

But this is a derail of the topic at hand. Just pointing out that the situations are actually quite different from one another, and ultimately not comparable.
