Only out of self-preservation, though.

Were Hollywood to embrace Baldwin as a victim of lax compliance to firearm safety protocols, they would have to also embrace gun violence as being due to lack of compliance with already existing gun laws. Such an eventuality would further expose Hollywood’s gun hypocrisy that is increasingly being outed as it’s ‘climate change’ hypocrisy is.

I think Hollywood will go mute on political discourse, as it should. With the explosion of indy film making, streaming and video content in general, Hollywood may be sensing a serious decline in control over the industry.

He's not much of a box office draw anymore. His usefulness to the left was playing Trump on Saturday Night Live.

Now he's just old, gray, and washed up. So Hollywood doesn't care.

Again, there are no federal restrictions on letting another person shoot a fire arm you own. If there are, perhaps 1d10t can share with us what they are

There are no federal restrictions on loaning or renting a firearm. The problem that arose in California and Hollywood was that say you were the Propmaster on a show, call it a legal drama. Out of 22 episodes you maybe had firearms working in 4 of those episodes. So when the need arises, you would rent the pistols and long guns from your favorite prophouse.

Well, in the old days you would give your Teamster driver a run slip and he would drive to the various prophouses and do your pickups.

Enter California's new firearms laws and now you have to have one of your crew with an FFL go with the Teamster driver to pickup the weapons and now you've lost one of your coveted crew members to doing "milk runs" and production doesn't want to hire another Propman to help cover the set.

That may have been the reason for Rust using the weapons in their posession, they didn't want to incur the extra charges of having an IATSE member with an FFL joyride with a Teamster from Hollywood to Albuquerque.

"New Mexico prosecutors have indicated they may charge Alec Baldwin over the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of his movie Rust last year, after the actor handed over his cellphone to be considered as evidence.

In a letter to the state's financial board, asking for funding to prosecute the high profile case, Santa Fe District Attorney District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies said she was 'ready' to file charges against four people.

She stopped short of confirming the charges she planned to bring, but said was 'certainly looking all the homicide statutes and any gun statutes under New Mexico criminal code'. ..."

I'm thinking:

Alec Baldwin

David Halls - 1st A.D.

Hannah Gutierrez Reed - Armorer

Sarah Zachry - Prop Master

or the 4th is not the prop master but another Producer

so the FBI "raids" the my pillow guy to get his phone and not giving him a chance to alter it, but yet they kindly ask for ABs phone which he does not give to them right away.

What's interesting is the need for 600k to prosecute.

Out spend the county and the charges will leave the system in ruin.

[Sooner or later]

Earlier in the thread there was dissatisfaction that he might get off due to wealth and privilege. Now, when it appears he will be charged, there is still dissatisfaction in another direction.

Why can't we just be satisfied for a change and be happy that prosecution might actually take place.

[Crowbob]

Charging and prosecuting are simply processes. The dissatisfaction comes from the very high probability that he won’t be punished. He killed somebody. Which it appears at this point to be waaaay less than trespassing. He’s walking free making babies unlike being in solitary w/o benefit of counsel.

What does $530k get you in upstate NY these days? Based on what that would buy in central Ohio, it seems like it would have to be some kind of mobile home.

It's probably a rather remote cabin where he practices target shooting.

Seems like he would run out of employees pretty quickly if he did that much practicing
