There was the end of Jon-Erik Hexum. Graduated from Michigan State, right here. Became an actor and while filming something, fooling around, he put a gun loaded with blanks to his head and fired. Apparently didn't realize the powder blast and wadding could be fatal. They were.

What has been even more shocking than the accident - and we've yet to see what the hell a loaded firearm was doing on the set - is the response by US conservatives. Which ranges from saying that it doesn't show the dangers of guns, just the dangers of guns in the hands of liberals to outright mockery,

Maybe Junior could market shirts that say "Donald Trump didn't kill people. he just let them die of COVID."

It sounds a lot like the armourer was slapdash and out of her depth. The safeguards which should have been in place to over-ride her were in the hands of someone else out of his depth and slapdash.

don't see any rational reason for live ammo on the set in the first place.

What if someone attacks the set? How will they defend it?

Apparently they need live ammo around so they can shoot bottles on their breaks. :roll:
