You can’t point a camera at a Baldwin without expecting some poo poo to go down.

Big Beef City posted:What level of certification do you think is needed for "Alec Baldwin just shot this lady in the loving face" that compares to having a dude at walmart that's trained to call 911 when Becky has a seizure again? Exactly. A medic is very different than someone with cpr certification.

Alec Baldwin spent those Union dues to fly a helicopter to my home in the middle of the night and rappel down a zip line into my window and call me the 'F' word fat and then took off running into the darkness because he co-wrote the script for this movie. He can't keep getting away with this.

SLICK GOKU BABY posted:Probably a classic case of someone taking the magazine out of a gun... but not removing the round in the chamber... That's usually the "executive producer" credit if they chipped in money to get the film made. They really have no power and aren't even on set or anything. A "producer" has actual power and is top of the chain of command on set. pentyne posted:Im seeing reports that from the search warrents served by the NM police, there was a set of 3 guns on a table, the assistant director grabbed one and yelled "cold gun" to tell everyone it was unloaded, then handed it to Alec Baldwin, who then proceeded to aim at the camera and pull the trigger for the scene, which then fired the live, no poo poo bullet that was loaded into the gun. It's not in the report that she checked the chamber and barrel and all that to ensure it was unloaded (obviously, but just saying for the sake of the report)? Yeah, there is going to be some charges if it's in policy to do that on set.

punishedkissinger posted:it has been pretty credibly sourced that there were multiple gun safety incidents before this and at least half a dozen members of the camera crew walked off because of safety concerns. i'm sure other details will come up but that seems like enough evidence that the producers of this film hosed up deeply and are responsible here. Could be but I'm curious to see how that would connect specifically too what the scenario sounds like right now where the guy handed Baldwin a prop gun and said "Cold Gun" and then not only wasn't cold, but possibly went off on it's own. There seem to be mixed reports that I'm seeing that say either he fired the gun, or he removed it from the holster while rehearsing and it went off. Like that's just a specific sounding "it's safe...whoops it's not actually safe my bad" type situation relating to that persons position. It could be that the producers hired a really lovely unqualified prop manager and safety expert and there's some culpability there but again further investigation kind of required. From what I'm reading though yeah it sounds like there were some accidental prop gun discharges over the weekend before the fatal one yesterday that were brought up and making some camera crew people nervous and just kind of ignored so that's looking pretty bad as far as safety protocols go. I'm thinking back to the Brandon Lee incident and it was such a specific set of events that had to occur to get that prop gun into a situation where it had a live round jammed in the chamber from earlier and a blank one behind it, but it kind of sounds like this one just had a live round in it period and I really don't know how that happens.

Flowers for QAnon posted:Exactly. A medic is very different than someone with cpr certification. Depends on where she was hit really. If there was a lot of internal bleeding that requires a trauma unit. A medic would be able to buy a bit of time by better sealing the external bleeding and could maybe drop a tourniquet to buy some time if it's a wounded limb, but if the bullet passed through her with enough energy to seriously injured a second person she needed a surgeon. And since she got life flighted and staff were complaining about the drive they were almost certainly in the middle of nowhere.

The biggest take here is that the person shouting "cold gun" wasn't even the person who was supposed to be handling this poo poo so who knows where the freaking armored even was at the time.

Admittedly knowing nothing about movies but knowing some stuff about guns I can't help but wonder at the risk/reward ratio for having a "hot" gun on set ever at all. In my mind, there can't possibly be a compelling reason to intermix live and blank ammunition in a working environment like that.

OTOH if this gun fired an actual bullet and that's why the camerawoman was killed then it would be a real WTF. Because you're right, there's no reason to have real ammo with bullets on a movie set pretty much ever.

I think you are misunderstanding the point, Big Beef City. The point is that whoever was in charge should have accounted for the fact that a movie set isn't exactly a place where gun knowledge is going to be commonplace and whoever brought live ammo into the picture is the idiot.

Shoulder has some major blood vessels but it’s still not typical to die from being shot there. A medic would likely have stopped the bleeding or at least slowed it enough to get her medivaced. I’m guessing they didn’t have one just based on what a shitshow this movie was. Kudos to them trying to put pressure on the wound at least.

No the point is that you said quote:one of the most politically liberal working environments anywhere on Earth who have probably spent zero or very little time around guns Despite that fact that movies are made constantly with guns, safely, because there are safety regulations and standards and people within the industry regarding working with them and then I essentially called you a loving moron for saying what you did, because, well, you are. And NOW you want to say "Gosh maybe they shouldn't have shot this lady, BBC" like this is a big revelation instead of just shifting the goal posts away from you being a loving idiot.

I think in basically all cases where there is a "management" involved safety incidents should be at least in part considered their fault, because otherwise you just encourage the current hellworld where there's a bunch of safety-theater that exists solely to prevent liability while the actual managers/supervisors tacitly encourage everyone to work in ways that don't actually follow those procedures to meet deadlines/kpis and such. Like in this case it sounds like this was already an accident waiting to happen that was known enough there had been complaints, that's a management problem.
