Alex Baldwin Could Face Manslaughter, 3716

Good afternoon, I’m still reporting on weak reporting on the Alex Baldwin shooting.Show more

The MSM is deliberately trying to steer the public away from the most important essential fact of actor Alex Baldwin’s killing of his director of photography last Thursday at a remote New Mexico movie set.

The incident occurred when Baldwin, a known hothead, even among Hollywood types, pointed what is believed to have been an antique revolver and shot his Director of photography, Halyna Hutchins, a 42-year-old mother and up-and-coming Hollywood cinematographer.

According to sources, Baldwin, just seconds before the shooting muttered:
“So is this what you want.”
Baldwin then aimed directly at Hutchins and shot her.

That is THE essential fact of this entire incident, however, Hollywood is essentially circling the wagons around the star and will try to shift the focus on the underlings who were supposed to have checked to be sure the weapon was not loaded.

This is from the LA Times:

“The outrage and disbelief over the death of “Rust” cinematographer Halyna Hutchins have many in the Hollywood production community talking about one man at the center of the tragedy: first assistant director Dave Halls.”

“Halls picked up 1 of 3 guns from a cart that had been prepared by the production’s armorer. He allegedly declared “cold gun” as he was handing it to Baldwin.”

“Rust” crew members who spoke with The Times said they were mystified how Halls could have handed a loaded gun to Baldwin without thoroughly checking it. “You don’t hand an actor a loaded gun.”

Yes, but that loaded gun didn’t point itself at the gorgeous director of photography and pull its own trigger.

I’m still reporting from the soon-to-be restored citadel of world freedom. Good day.
