The whole thing is a bit bizarre.
On the face of it it's a terrible accident and the negligence seems to be (or is being blamed ) on the part of the armory crew and the AD who handed Baldwin the gun and pronounced it 'cold'
Conspiracy theories are starting to take off...Was the gun fiddled with on purpose to make Baldwin look bad given his anti-gun stance?
The thing I don't get is why the gun was pointed at someone who was not part of the 'acting group'...and the trigger pulled.
Good luck to the authorities trying to make sense of all that.
@ LP re Deadwood...It's been a while so I'm not sure whether you caught up with the film. If you liked the series you'll probably enjoy the film. It kind of ties up a few things. When the series was cancelled it left everything a bit up in the air.
