Alec Baldwin Shooting

[Spongebob]

I had a very similar train of thought that playing with the gun they were using for the scenes seemed like it was just asking for trouble. Maybe it might take Alec Baldwin getting in serious shit about this in order for things to change? Then again, how often does this happen and we just don't hear about it?

The last big one was Brandon Lee and that was nearly 30 years ago.  The rules may change a bit but getting people to follow them is the issue.  Memories tend to be short.  I'm sure there are lots on on set accidents we never hear a peep about.

All valid points.  For whatever reason, people, Americans for sure, tend to put things off until something extreme forces a change.
