Seacrest said he was killed by a projectile from the blank. That is not correct. It's a valid distinction when talking about a blank killing another person. The incident he is referencing only killed him because he put the gun up directly to his head and the force of the explosion pushed a portion of his own skull into his brain.

If Baldwin had put the gun on her head and pulled the trigger then it would be relevant.

The "wad" of the blank could certainly be called a projectile if it is not consumed by the blast. This would be different than a bullet's usual projectile but a projectile nonetheless.

Are you referring to the specific case that Seacrest mentioned? If so, that is not what happened. He was killed by the blast and not a projectile. It was his own skull that caused the brain injury that killed him.

Just providing wad information.

"He wasn't killed by the blank, he was killed by the damage the blank did to his head."

The victims are the American People and the Republic itself.

Well, the point at least in regards to Alec Baldwin, is that in the context of his job as an actor he has to point guns in the direction of people. If a gun that is checked by everyone is still way too dangerous to point at another person then can we really blame him when he is doing his job in pointing it in the general direction of people ends up killing someone? This isn't someone coming to his house and he is waving a gun around and it goes off and kills someone. Every actor that uses guns has to violate the very rule that was so important that a gun everyone knew in court had no bullets in it went nuts about.

Again, you are a very experienced gun owner. If you checked the gun and verified it was completely empty of things that could kill me, and then I checked the gun and verified it was completely empty of things that could kill me, it would still be too dangerous for you, a very experienced gun owner, to point it in my general direction. I'm not saying it's a bad rule. It makes sense. But in terms of an actor that not only at some point needs to point a gun at another actor, but also has a bunch of people standing around as they film a movie, can we really put the blame on the actor that was under the impression not only was the gun not loaded but bullets aren't even anywhere on the set.

Many that is true, but an incomplete statement.

Blanks are real bullets. And are allowed on every set.

And blanks have killed at least one actor who had some of the same misunderstandings about gun safety that you have.

Blanks are real bullets.

It's more fun to be a victim

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

Guns don’t kill people, blanks kill people.

Yeah you kinda lost steam on this one. Blanks are not bullets dude.

I am not a legal expert, how many times do I have to say it?

Are you stoned or pissed off, or both, when you create these postings?

Hate to tell ya this "Amigo", but that is sort of the essence of how life works.

After 16 kids, I think Nas is now shooting blanks.

Two tiered justice strikes again.

We lose a lot of rights when we look the other way when it doesn't affect our lives or it isn't a cause we agree with.
