Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

One would have thought that someone learned a lesson from what happened to Jon-Erik Hexum in 1984. He accidentally shot himself in the head with a gun loaded with blanks.

and don’t forget in 1993, Brandon Lee,
son of martial arts legend Bruce Lee.

The death of David Carradine on the other hand taught us about the importance of quick release knots.
And to be careful who one associates with.
“Baldwin is a co-producer on the film and plays infamous outlaw Rust, whose 13-year-old grandson is convicted of an accidental murder.”
Art. Life. Irony.
Guns don’t kill people. People kill people. Liberals and their problems with “gun control.” The only good thing to come from this may be the permanent silencing of blowhard Alec Baldwin.
Exactly. No more unfunny Trump impersonations on SNL.
He’ll be rehabilitated in a couple years though. No liberal is ever fully excommunicated from society. I mean if Jeff Toobin can get his CNN gig back, anything’s possible.
Why would you think Baldwin is going to need any rehabilitation at all? He’s going to skate on this incident although he should have known better than to be firing a gun on a crowded set. When you film a shooting, the shooter and the shootee either appear in separate shots with the shooter actually pointing the gun in a safe direction or the sound of gunfire is dubbed in later. I suspect with two behind-the-camera people being hit, the blank was either over-loaded or over-crimped or there was an obstruction in the barrel, leading to the shell casing exploding and sending brass fragments out of the headspace between the cylinder and the barrel as well as out of the barrel itself. This incident will be blamed on either the prop guy in charge of the gun or an Act of God, despite Baldwin’s negligence in failing to take seriously the handling of the weapon which, as an experienced actor and a producer, he should have known that firing blanks is a risky business.
Or maybe it’s a real life “Murder she wrote”.
How do you accidentally shoot two people?
As they used to say at the end of many Quinn Martin produtions To be continued …
Liberals know everything about guns. Just ask one.
You are worthless Alec Baldwin:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGeLnX3aj40
Alec Baldwin has … *ahem* … anger issues.
When will we learn that Baldwin was pissed off because the dead cinematographer failed to capture the scene last played by Baldwin … forcing a re-shoot (sorry) of the scene?
America, F**K Yeah!
Maybe the cinematographer and colleague said something that threatened Mr. Baldwin’s safe space.
A relatively young woman dead and that entitled pseudo Leftist wanker isn’t. What a travesty.
+++++/\ Adellad…100%
IKR, why couldn’t he hold the gun backwards?
Alec Baldwin’s antics remind me of an earlier Hollywood actor who had acquired a bad reputation for belligerence and even violence, Lawrence Tierney. Some people figure that his performance in the Quentin Tarentino movie Reservoir Dogs was Tierney simply being himself.
At least one member of his family was sufficiently concerned about it that he changed his on-screen name. That was actor Scott Brady, who many will recognize as the town sheriff in Gremlins.
Baldwin will no doubt be heading into therapy. I never found him funny and am certainly not a fan.
How, how, how can this even happen, real ammo in guns on a movie set and accidentally fooling around and killing two people?
The only movie he was in that I liked was The Hunt for Red October.
BA, I was just gonna say that exact thing….since then..??
Gutter Trash.
I like “Beetlejuice” too.
Before his TDS, he did do a couple of funny sketches on SNL:

And the always festive:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPpcfH_HHH8
His performance in Glengary Glen Ross as the marketing/sales manager was absolutely astonishing.
My hatred of Hollywood liberals notwithstanding I kinda like the cat. Kinda.
How did that scene go?
“A-B-K, Always Be Killing, Always Be Killing……..”
“Coffee is for Killers!”
Too bad Alec’s dad didn’t shoot blanks.
could we get a vary late term abortion on this jackass?
Maybe we’ll hear less from the a-hole about Trump, now: fewer Twitter rants, fewer idiotic SNL sketches. After all, Trump killed fewer innocents than baldwin.
mhb23re
… And a LOT fewer than POTUS Joe Dronestrike.
There’s “no such thing as bad publicity” in the celebrity industry, he will publicly perform on this matter as he is professionally advised to do and will profit from it. Never let a crisis go to waste.
In the end it’s Trump’s fault.
” Abolish the 2A…” Thanks, Alec Baldwin, the buffoon!
The denizens of the Hollywood movie industry are largely against guns but yet they profit hugely from the inordinate use of guns in films. If they really believed in gun restrictions they would ban the use of guns in films. But no that would reveal their hypocrisy.
Guns don’t belong in the entertainment industry. Movies with guns are not entertainment, they feed the dark side.
Where did the live rounds come from and who was in control of the props?
Alec Bldwin could use some gun control.
Weird if not suspicious. Time to unleash every felon’s worst nightmare. ”Excuse me miss…”

My first thought was that Baldwin was horsing around and pointed and fired at the victims while pretending to be angry about a call to redo a scene or something.
Guns don’t kill people.
Alec Baldwin kills people.
Was it a Saturday Night special?
It’s a good thing I wasn’t drinking any tea when I read that or you might owe me a new keyboard.
Blanks can be crimped or wadded. At close range wadding is a essentially a bullet traveling 1000 fps for a few yards. A crimped round can launch small amounts of metal or powder at a close target. A lot of very surprised people have been killed by blanks. As Notta Canadian says above, camera angles and adding the sound in post-production saves ever having to point the gun at anyone.
The army uses blanks to play soldier but the barrel has a plug called a BFA or blank firing adapter. Whenever anyone within 20 or so feet was going to shoot at me I notified him that if he did I was going to introduce his rifle to his rectum.
At close range wadding is a essentially a bullet traveling 1000 fps for a few yards.
That’s what killed Jon-Erik Hexum. He held the gun, loaded with blanks, next to his head and pulled the trigger. The resulting shock wave caused a severe head injury.
I recall reading that he “blew a quarter (25 cent piece) sized piece of his skull into his brain.” That right after joking as if playing russian roulette, and saying, “let’s see if there’s one in here for me.”
SCAR.
The (blank firing adapter) is required on the M-16 because as round moves thru the barrel, the gas from it pushes the next round into the chamber. Without that. No pressure no round.
Yeah. I fired many M-16 and a few M-60 in my time.
Baldwin just tweeted that the incident was an “accident “, therefore it must have been an accident. No negligence involved. /s
Wheeew …. for a minute there I thought he would claim that it was just a bureaucratic snafu.
I guess its time for some public contrition, candlelight vigils, ostentatious donations to the Brady organization, interviews in which he claims he can’t sleep at night, and maybe some choice back channel political donations.
I am shocked that he didn’t blame Trump for it.
What He is not suing the manufacturer?
For this is what Liberals do.
Act exceedingly stupidly,then try to hold the manufacturer of the tools responsible..For every Libtard knows that they are never too blame..never.
How about we apply Hollyweirds and the Progressive Media’s standards to this murder?
Hang him now,hold trial later..maybe,if we feel like bothering..
For any properly trained gun owner,who inflicts harm or death upon others,is always assumed to have known better…
But not our Progressive Comrades..
Always innocent due to assumed stupidity!
Believe it or not, apparently it’s being reported that he was on an anti-Trump rant and waving the gun around when it happened.
So yeah, the next CNN headline will be “Shooting is Actually Trump’s Fault”.
FBI will be sent out to arrest him.
Alec Baldwin, too cheap to use CGI.
But I never shot the deputy. . .
Bob Marley & The Wailers – I Shot The Sheriff (Live At The Rainbow Theatre, London / 1977)
He and his fake Spanish wife are disgusting. We’re supposed to feel sorry for him.
Oh wow! Keeps getting worse. His Production crew walked off the set two days before because of working conditions and firearm safety after two previous misfires on the set. They were quickly replaced by “locals”
Lawyer up tough guy.
