The jury is still out on that. The grand jury, that is. It is still an ongoing investigation. There were rumors about a month ago Baldwin may be indicted. Time will tell.


Your links say exactly what I said. Baldwin is responsible as a producer of the film who is responsible for the overall safety of the set, not as the guy that pulled the trigger.

But again, this is a derail of the discussion at hand.

If anything or anyone needs their bottom gotten to, the Aggies are up to the challenge.

A&M can’t handle the truth.

There is a huge difference actually.


Nice deflection, but there is no difference when it comes to firearms safety. You always assume the weapon is loaded and treat it accordingly. That means you don’t point it at people and you certainly don’t discharge it when you are aware of people down range. The cannon should have never been fired. It doesn’t matter if you warned them. It doesn’t matter if the timing of its firing is important to a ceremony. Safety comes first. If you’re “tradition” trumps safety, then your cannons need to be banned by the league. It’s beyond ridiculous that you guys continue to defend this idiocy.

generally support the corps, and appreciate the history of A&M. But they do have a track record of getting so wrapped up in their own traditions that they cannot see the forest for the trees, and ebd up living in a time-warp bubble, essentially detached from present-day reality.


It's this same blind ignorant dedication to traditions that caused the tragic, horrific deaths of 12 students at their precious an sacred bonfire. They haven't learned a thing

To be fair, we warned them.

You can see the player get pissed after.

Why wouldn't they just wait till the players were done with their prayer

They could do it like the way Tampa does it with their pirate ship. Just have it on top the scoreboard or something.

So even if they were warned it is ok and safe to fire a cannon at their faces just a few feet away?

The decision to do so is criminal and liable The players were thankfully not harmed apparently.

Come on baw. Please tell me you did not miss the clarifying phrase. I spent just under forty years in uniform, enlisted and commissioned. They are not professionals nor are they Soldiers.

That is the point.

The Aggies are making this seem like normal behavior because it is for them. They are used to having cannon loads blown in their faces on a regular basis.

Since you want to bring camera footage into this as evidence of what did and did not happen:

They're on camera kneeling in the endzone praying when yall fired the cannon so we know this is a fact.

Where is the camera footage of this toy soldier warning them it was going to happen?

What's that? There is none? Because it never occurred.

Your fans, however, ARE caught on camera bragging about yall doing it and giggling like school girls about it.

Pretty damning.

No need arguing with these stupid Aggies. They are so into their cult it’s hopeless to expect them to even consider how their shooting of that ridiculous cannon endangered people

To be fair, Aggie constantly blows all over other men so they probably thought nothing about it
