Yo if that photo is real...that's f*cking sad man. That poor dude.

This may be a stupid question but why would they use a loaded gun on a movie set to begin with anyway?

They're not supposed to.

There are usually two kinds of rounds used on a movie set, blanks and dummy rounds.

Blanks are rounds that have no projectile (the bullet) but still have gunpowder to produce the bang but nothing propelled forward.

Dummies are rounds that have the projectile but have had either the primer struck, or no gunpowder, usually both. These are rounds made to "look" real say in a chamber of a revolver during a close up of the gun.

Mistakes are made when somebody mixes up these methods. That's what happened with Brandon Lee. They accidentally left a bullet in the chamber and inserted blanks and when they fired the blank, the bullet that was lodged in the barrel shot out and killed Lee.

They don't know for sure what happened with Baldwin yet, but it's mostly something careless like described above.

Or, they brought real live rounds on set. That isn't impossible either.

It is and I almost feel bad trying to convince my friend via text that he went on a shooting spree shouting "SANDY HOOK!" with his dick out his pants.

Nah bruh Alec did the **** on purpose he's a stone cold killer...

I had my friend going till I rickroll'd him too.

They usually do just that by firing at an intern, but the film crew walked off the set in protest before this happened.

Your friend sounds dumb lol

What I'm saying is meant more for the final person using the gun because there is apparently a lot of incompetency going around in the chain of handling before that so it can never be trusted again. There should simply be a rule, strictly 100% followed, that if you are pointing and about to shoot a gun at a person, you shoot it somewhere else first. The end.
