    Maybe..Baldwin decided to just spontaneously shoot at her as a joke, or something. It wasn't part of ANY action being rehearsed, blocked or filmed. He was basically "horsing around.

    A very bad shot that could not hit a target from 20 feet.

    Sounds like gun safety was non existent on the set. It caught up with them.

    I moved 1000 lbs of them or so. He paid me. It was in another friend of mine's yard in his "container".

    I made like..$80 and he gave me 2 for target practice. True story.

    It's Hollywood movie lenses, brah. That's how they rolled. There were different lenses for the Technicolor as well.

    Same diameter and thickness, though.

    6" square and the parabola was 4" thick. Double parabola, I guess.

    I tell you what: No single pistol bullet from I don't give a fuck what would ever go through lenses like that.

    Maybe a .308 after 6-7 shots might.

    My dumbass knows I shot them with a .22

    There was ricocheting n stuff

    He did not try to aim at her. He was practicing cross draw and it discharged when he did it the second time.

    Souza told them Baldwin was "sitting in a pew in a church building setting, and he was practicing a cross draw," the affidavit said. A cross draw is when a shooter pulls the weapon from a holster on the opposite side of the body from the draw hand.

    So he didn't recklessly shoot her? You mean he did it on purpose? Make up your mind.

    You realize that it's the reason for practicing, right?
