      What are you even talking about? You seriously think people in movies shouldn’t be pointing guns at each other for a scene? How many westerns have been made with no problems whatsoever? This was the fault of an incompotent armoror on set.

      “Sorry director, I can’t point a gun at someone for this scene cuz gun safety is more important.” Lol.

        Nobody said that… You made that up.

        But if you play with guns, it is your responsibility not to kill anyone

        This is gun safety 101.

        Any adult person knows this, anyone who doesn’t has no business touching a weapon.

          Gun safety 101 is you never, under any circumstances, point your gun at something you don’t intend to kill. So yes, you are absolutely saying that actors shouldn’t be pointing guns at other actors.

            Is this supposed to be a flex?

            If this rule was followed the vicitm would alive…

            Or they could like check the weapon before playing with it… Second best option if you really going to be playing with weapons

              How could that possibly be a flex? If this rule was followed movies wouldn’t have guns. If this is what you are arguing then that’s fine. But if guns are in movies, they will be pointed at other humans.

              Also, people in this same thread have told you why untrained actors should NOT be fiddling with guns. You’d rather be ignorant and ignore everyone for some strange reason.

                untrained actors should NOT be fiddling with guns.

                Untrained people should not be touching guns, period. This common sense 101

                people in this same thread have told you

                And I told them that person handling a weapon is responsible for the weapon, being an actor doesn’t remove this liability unless you are rich it seems

                  So just say you don’t think guns should be in movies. That’s a valid argument. What you are trying to say is stupid.

          You said that my man. Where on earth did you learn that gun safety 101 is “don’t kill anyone”? Lol.

          Gun safety 101 is don’t point one at something unless you intend to shoot it.

      The rules that have been put into place after the death of brandon lee which have resulted in the deaths of only 2 people since 1993.

      Those rules.

          Let’s say i hired someone to build a house for me.

          The house ostensibly looks fine and seems sturdy.

          I invite my friends over, and they come inside the house.

          I walk outside to move some trash and shut the door.

          Shutting the door causes the house to collapse, killing everyone inside.

          Am i responsible for my friends deaths? I did kill them by knocking down my house after all.

            Guns are subject to special handling rules because their intent is to kill people.

            Analogies here are red herring

            Guns are made to kill people and anyone whp handles huns is held to the highest standard of care on the personal level. This is not something you can contract away unless you are a regime whore of certain level like Alex
