    I totally understand what you are saying about Baldwin's personality and demeanor for the most part, and I have seen his past behavior as well. But even given that, that doesn't mean he isn't remorseful, or regretting the event that happened that day.

    And I also agree, if the shoe were on the other foot, it's very likely that he would act just as you describe.

    But, this tragic incident, could be a turning point in his life. And someone to say he Baldwin has no remorse about this incident, without knowing him personally, IMO is just projection their own hatred about Baldwin with little regard to truth or facts.

    At this point, until facts or the truth say otherwise, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt as far as his feelings and emotions.


    I respect that.

    I'm sure that he has lots of remorse.

    He's worried about how much it could cost him...


    ETA: Or, at least his insurance premiums going up.

    I see it this way. None of us know Alec Baldwin personally. We gather our perceptions about him, or his personality from the news, movies, stories we read about him and from what we see on TV.

    He might, or might not be like that in real life and around his friends and family. I can say from my perceptions of him, he sure won't be on the short list to any of my dinner parties!

    His reputation isn’t good. My friend never met him. What he’s heard about him from others who have isn’t positive. I had my actor friend make a good argument why he should be held accountable. My friend, and sighting a well known director, who I’m not naming because I don’t wish to dox him without permission, is sop’s we’re not followed. He has used air soft guns and fake guns as prop guns and they still had sop’s. He was saying not once did a cameraman ever be put in front of a barrel for that type of shot. It was done with just a camera and no one near it.

    According to my friend, Alec being in charge on set, holds most of the blame. His opinion not mine. I’m still in the mode of listen to view points.

    Let me know if this is a dupe... as I didn't read all 418 posts, but Noir's head meet hammer on Balwin's stupidity...
    He shot someone DEAD, BECAUSE he is anti-gun (and STAYS firearm safety-ignorant):

    Yes, that video has already been posted, twice I believe.

    Are you asserting he meant to shoot someone dead, just because he's an anti-gun liberal?

    Wow. Talk about a conspiracy theory!

    It wouldn't be the first time a lefty-went and killed people to try to ban guns... ... ...

    Umm...okay. Care to back that up with some factual information?

    I would guess that most Country fans are not Democrat... ... ...
    so logically, why would someone on the right specifically target a Country concert?
    I know he had mental problems, but really?

    Snopes': "MOSTLY FALSE" usually means... legit, but we disagree...

    THIS means some of it is correct...
    And just how many people knew their names, BEFORE, they went out killing people?

    So you really think a somewhat high-profile actor, making a movie, (which means being filmed.) is going to intentionally shoot and kill someone?

    Keep trying!

    I never said "intentionally", I implied "ignorance-caused" because of political-ideology pressed him essentially "to not to learn..." BASIC GUN RULES outside of his sphere of influence, when used, possibly daily, as part of his job-function...

    I pretty much asked you directly that, the first time I quoted your post. And now you are asserting you never said "intentionally".

    I seriously doubt his political ideology caused the death of the woman. I'm pretty sure it was a bullet that caused her death. I also doubt his political ideology is at fault for poor gun safety either. I mean how would you then explain some inbred redneck who votes conservative with a negligent discharge of a gun?

    Keep right on gambling, and maybe you're get lucky and hit a winning hand!
