MODERATORS
Again, I point out that parents of children who killed/died aren't being held to the same level of responsibility.
Yes they should be, now leave the non sequitur discussion derailing nonsense at the door and stay on topic. Parents being irresponsible dumbasses has nothing to do with a film exec directing his crew to cut safety corners to save a quick buck.
Sounds like you agree with my point that this is a selective prosecution and that plenty of folks who did worse skated.
Fuck off, stop arguing in bad faith, it's patently clear to everyone in this thread you're arguing in bad faith.
Did you read anything I commented or are you going to strut around like a pigeon on a chessboard arguing a nonsequitur nobody was arguing and everyone already broadly agrees with?
Agreeing that parents should be prosecuted for improperly storing firearms around children, which sidenote a simple fucking google search shows that parents often are prosecuted for improperly storing firearms but they're not famous actor and producer Alec Baldwin so it doesn't make national news, is not agreeing to the idea of not prosecute Alec Baldwin for directing his crew to cut corners in safety protocols.
Apparently you didn't hear the latest news.
A different judge has dismissed the case. Permanently.
They looked at the prosecutor and saw that they'd acted in bad faith, trying to railroad Baldwin.
