My point is this: My 10 year old child would not have made the same mistake as Baldwin and that woman would still be alive. My child is nut some gun not nor is he some prodigy. He has simply had proper firearm safety rules imparted to him. Every child knows "Look both ways before crossing the street" and it is not more difficult to know "Always keep it pointed in a safe direction. It is always considered loaded until you personally check. Keep you finger off the trigger." Any one of these rules would have saved that woman's life. Alex Baldwin acted like a child by refusing to know and follow the simplest rules of firearms but still fucked around with one. Many people fucked up here but at the end of the day the final responsibility lies with the hand holding the gun.
Accidental Discharge is always Negligent Discharge.
Guns Don't Kill People. Alex Baldwin Kills People.
P.S. - Accidental Discharge is always Negligent Discharge is actually a legal principal in many states when it comes to firearm laws. Laws that pieces of shit like Baldwin have been pushing for for years with the intent of punishing gun owners. I will not abide rules for thee but not for me bullshit. Manslaughter 1 for this asshole and nothing less.
