Baldwin didn't "show up to do a job." He was a producer on the film, not just an actor.
Producer is a broad term, there are many producers for a movie. He was likely just overseeing casting and other actor stuff.
Exactly. It happened on his set by his hand. Makes a bit more of a tough situation
No it doesn't. If I cut the brakes in your car and it causes you to run into someone, then it's my fault, not yours.
Edit: you know who else could be found viable? The service person who checked the vehicle before you took it on the road and allowed it through despite nonfunctional breaks.
A gun's purpose is to kill people, a car's is not. The analogy is flawed.
Still, assuming you have mandatory regular inspections of cars in the US, imagine you are an experienced mechanic by profession. Someone lends you a car and says it's safe but you know immediately this rustbucket hasn't been to an inspection in decades. By experience and papers. But you drive in a public space anyways and kill someone due to a fault that would have been found during an inspection. It is 100% your fault.
As I understand it, following safety procedures would have prevented this death, in the same way nonfunctional brakes would certainly be found during service.
On a side note, as an electrician who has to sign documents that electrical devices are safe to use, if one of those devices kills someone and I can prove that I followed protocol during testing, I am in the clear. Following rules makes the difference between a tragic accident and negligence.
Spoken like a true psychopath.
A gun's purpose is to provide safety and utility to the bearer. "Killing people" that are attempting to harm you is called self-defense and is totally legal.
