Just saw this. It deserves its own thread as Alec Baldwin has been pretty much tried and found guilty already by some. This hopefully will counteract that.

He still had some responsibility. First, it is ALWAYS the responsibility of a person holding a gun to know if it's loaded. That responsibility cannot be farmed out to another party. Second, guns should never be pointed at someone else unless you intend to fire at them.
