Although it was cold weather, If they do forensics and the car was moving, there is a chance the gunpowder entered the a/c heating system. If they were stationary and the motor was off, burned powder tests would most likely be negative. If the driver's story checks out, they may not have any suspicion and list it as such.
There wasn't a man in the back seat. The owner of the truck was in the driver's seat. His friend Joseph Austin Smith was in the front passenger seat. The owners dog was in the back seat. The hunting gear was in the back seat. The gun (a rifle) was in the back seat. How everything was stacked in the back seat wasn't described in the story, nor was it known if the vehicle was parked or moving when the gun went off.
The dog stepped on the gun, it discharges and the bullet hits Smith.
These vindictive Americanas here of Chats calibre wants 20 years or more if possible.
How so? That was an uncalled for swipe.
I suggest you GO BACK AND READ WHAT I SAID. The law states penalties and I told you what they recommend. My caliber... How does that make me a vindictive American?
You asked what I think/thought was suitable and I replied "5 to 7 in a mental facility."
The DNC couldn't muster up 100 people let alone the 10,000 who showed up at the insurrection.
It wasn't a false flag operation. Why would the Democrats want to stop the certification of Biden? You speak of no logic.
Seriously... I'm going to round-up a few thousand troops and make believe they are Trump supporters so I can have them block the certification of Biden.
Get my point? I'm sorry you have a different opinion.
Why were there real bullets on set? Target practicing? What idiots allow that on a movie set?
Some movies use real guns (and not props) that fire blanks because of the effect with recoil, flash and smoke. Google it if you are uncertain. Have you seen an actor take a shot and eject the empty casing? I doubt prop guns/rifles can do that. An actor 'off-set' doing target practice to learn about the gun he is actually using in the movie doesn't sound strange if the 2 people in charge of weapons/props are doing their jobs correctly. We're back to the part of making the actors (in all movies) responsible and not only Alec Baldwin.
Rust is a movie in an old Western setting, so the weapon is more likely a Colt and not Glock. Different set of circumstances.
Again, there is too much we don't know about what scenes were being filmed. Were there any closeups of the barrel with bullets (blanks) in it? Does he at any time shoot and reload?
We're all guessing here.
As far as one of the charges to Alec, actor or not, it's his project and his liability. Reports that the armorer was lax on safety and people walking off the set will be part of the case.
How his defense presents this to a jury for the deciding factor and not one of us citing gun safety is how it will play out! There is a chance that many of the readers opinions will be shot-down.
This is going to cause a shakeup in the movie industry making every actor responsible to check the weapons they are handed that were checked and certified by weapons professionals.
Actor Steven Pasquale's comments: He felt safe, he said, because he relied on the professional props experts and the armorer who had checked and shown him the gun.
“We are artists — we are not actual cowboys, actual cops, actual superheroes,” Pasquale said. “We are not Jason Bourne. I can’t even begin to imagine an actor having the responsibility of now needing to be the safety person on the set regarding prop guns. That’s insane.”
It gets better and better every year. Charging stations are in parking lots of grocery stores, hardware stores, malls, parking garage at the county hospital.
If you plan a trip correctly, rest stops along the highways have capability of fast charging so you can stop for lunch and power up enough for a four hour drive.
I think the local turnpike rest stop has 8 slots for charging Tesla.
More factors that will come up in court. Did Baldwin have possession of the gun seconds before filming started or a lengthy time prior? Does every actor do this or do they trust the 2 handlers who's job it is to secure the weapon?
When this story first broke, it was reported the same gun was used for target practice when they weren't filming. Surely this was part of the investigation.
There lots of factors to consider: Movie set, New Mexico law, armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed failing to do her job, the person handing the gun to Baldwin declared it 'cold'
All of this goes to a jury and depending on his defense, this may only be fines and no jail time for Baldwin.
Alec’s attorney Luke Nikas said in a statement, “This decision distorts Halyna Hutchins’ tragic death and represents a terrible miscarriage of justice. Mr. Baldwin had no reason to believe there was a live bullet in the gun – or anywhere on the movie set. He relied on the professionals with whom he worked, who assured him the gun did not have live rounds. We will fight these charges, and we will win.”
The good side of VPN is for people who travel (especially in business) and have to logon to a secure site that will block unknown ISP addresses. The VPN corrects the address so the secure site recognizes the user.
Yes... I'm not sure of the liability when multiple cars are involved. Let's say car #2 had sufficient distance to stop but car #3 plowed into him forcing him to hit car #1. How do you prove it?
The auto-pilot was in beta testing, maybe they need to go back to design for more evaluation. Musk had commented recently about the advances to his FSD.
Both... Glitch and knocking Musk. There's some politics involved with it.
CelticWitch, Happy New Year... Sabotage? Interesting thought coming for you. How so? What provoked you to take an unwarranted swipe at me tonight? Obviously, there is something you dislike about me that's been festering.
You've done this several times in the past. Because of this, I avoid you and that's why I find you coming you my blog to make such a comment so unusual.
