I understand your point, and maybe if Alec Baldwin had ever exhibited that kind of compassion and understanding in his life people would be inclined to extend to him the benefit of the doubt. But he has consistently been a bully, a loudmouth and a vicious critic of everyone with whom he disagrees. He has wished the vilest punishments and consequences for anyone on the conservative spectrum who made a mistake, and that is the reason Baldwin will know no mercy.Boriqua wrote: ↑November 18th, 2021, 1:49 pm I have to say ..

But ... In our lives every single day we rely on professionals in some capacity.
I recently brought my car in for a full on brake job, Brakes, Rotors and flush. While I can stumble along fixing mechanical stuff I am LIGHT YEARS from professional mechanics. I don't get under the car or pull off the wheels to see if they did it right. They are the pros .. they tell me all done and hand me the keys and off I go.
Many of you do the same thing .. and it goes on. Roofers, plumbers, Airline pilots, manufacturers even that Uber driver. You put your lives or money on the table and pray/assume they are the pros. I know a bunch here are handy but .. The other half of the world would pay the plumber, the pro, and move on.
In my work life in Displays I have done some whacky stuff. Hang stuff off the sides of buildings. Put up a 500lb Faux scoreboard at Devils stadium and so on .. No one checks my work .. I tell them its safe to open to the public and in come thousands of people. I was supposed to be the Pro. Kept me up at night sometimes!!
Look .. I hope they nail him. I hate his face, opinions and his need to voice them every 5 minutes like an assh*le who has some vast wisdom because he has a job playing pretend. s*** my daughter did pretend at 3 .. its not that big a deal.
I hope they nail him to the cross as one of the producers who when looking for cost savings to make a shi**y indie film picked the prop and armorer to cut corners instead of .. I don't know .. maybe his payout. He is at fault for NOT hiring the Professional/s he needed and could depend on.
But in the end .. I just cant blame the dude for not knowing gun safety rules, whether the gun was loaded or not or even how the hell to check it.
Like the mechanic and my car .. guys says its good .. I have to defer. I hand the keys over to my wife ... my most prized possession ... and have to trust him.
Its why you hire pros .. evidently he did not.
Still enjoy seeing him squirm though .. him and his Looney wife.
