In the mean time, you have decided!

YOU have no idea what YOU are talking about. A man takes a gun into his hands and pulls the trigger without checking himself to see if it was loaded needs to rot in jail. Who cares what job is what person. The only thing that matters is the one who pulled the trigger.

Is the Alec Baldwin shooting a homicide? | TheHill

Worth a look. I do not care for the writer, Alan Dershowitz, at all; but, his reasoning is sound and he would have an excellent grasp of the law.

Instead of all these talking heads trying to decide what crime he or others should/could be charged with or what someone should have done, FIND OUT WHY there was live ammo on a movie set! Did someone intentionally plant live ammo hoping for such an incident to occur?

he's such an abrasive, loud-mouth d-bag, that of course he's going to catch a lot of hell for doing this, even if it was an accident. His past tweets condemning others for accidental shootings (like Dick Cheney) are coming back to haunt him. Frankly, he deserves all the condemnation he gets.

Honestly, I think it was a terrible accident. They should be looking for who loaded the gun that is who should be punished not Baldwin

That seems to be where they are investigating and the like.

Alec Baldwin should have some civil liability depending on how much control he had over the safety procedures and the like. But I see no criminal actions on his part and the victims' families would have some say in all this and they seem to not hold Alec Baldwin responsible for any of this.

They do not have enough information .....YET!

And have not been counseled by their attorney.....YET!

A crime has definitely been committed.
The letter of the law will describe who is liable for what.....live ammunition which is not allowed on the set was introduced by somebody.....knowingly!!

It was a dreadful accident. Alec Baldwin is not a "killer". He's an actor who has probably had "cold" guns handed to him many times. He depended on the professionals who's job it was to do that.

I don't like him or his politics but....I believe that the cheap shots here and on other social media is uncalled for. I'm sure he is dealing with his own demons now and needs to be left alone.

I like him and his politics but he is certainly fighting one of his own worst nightmares. He is very far from perfect though as are most of us. He has said and done some rotten things over his 63 years or so.

What really bothers me is where all this hate is probably coming from. I should not say anything more.
