Read the OP. I like Mr. Baldwin. He is a funny and entertaining guy.
He also fucked up royally and negligently killed someone.
And YOU want to forgive him because you like his politics....
If it was Clint Eastwood you would be calling for murder charges and his head on a pike.
I think Clint's politics is messed up, but I like him as an actor and directory. If he did "Geriatric Dirty Harry" and accidentally shot someone in the same situation, I wouldn't have any different ideas than on Baldwin.
Your claim of his responsibility makes no sense. If I own a gun for personal protection, I am responsible for everything that happens with it. If a movie production company pays me to point a gun at someone, and has industry-standard protection protocols in-place, and has declared that everything is safe, then there isn't the same responsibility. It is not a similar situation at all.
If all actors have to be gun experts, and are legally responsible for a firearm in their hands, then they better bring their own firearms, blanks, and everything from home, because they can't trust anything that someone else gives them. But if I were on that set, I wouldn't trust anyone else's expertise with their own guns, and I'd be scared of being shot by some stupid extra with a gun.
The "every actor is responsible for the state of their own gun" is bullshit, and can never work in the real world.
