    It's hilarious that people here think they know more than the police who is investigating this.

    Trumpkins are funny people.

    Who said that? Every accusation is speculation at this point. Quit being a dick.

    Alec Baldwin pooched it. He apparently failed to (a) check the firearm loading prior to handling it, and (b) failed to follow the 4 common rules of firearm safety. Complete and utter negligence, if not actual recklessness.

    Any fault is completely on him. And given his previous outbursts, he probably should have been background-checked and red-flagged.

    Anyone else is an accessory to the fact.

    Really? You and others haven't been pontificating about this and jumping to conclusions ahead of investigation? You guys haven't been making this a political thing?

    Sure thing buddy.

    You see this? That's an example.

    Let me explain this to you, my little child.

    The taser gun was on the left. The gun was on the right. The taser gun feels different from the real gun.

    Do you get it, my child?

    Personally I would never fire a prop gun without personally making sure it had blanks in it and no live regular rounds in it. Its like a parachute . You want to pack it yourself.

    You always check the chamber when you first pick up a gun or someone hands you one. It's just what you do.

    This had nothing to do w/ Baldwin. But conservatives NEVER disappoint.
    Baldwin was handed a prop gun. He failed to check it's condition with respect to being loaded correctly. This is his fault. The first thing you do on picking up any firearm is check to see if it's loaded or not.
