One of multiple live bullets found on the set of “Rust” by investigators of the 2021 fatal shooting was discovered in the bandolier of actor Jensen Ackles, according to crime scene technician Marissa Poppell.
Poppell disclosed the detail while on the stand during the second day of testimony in the involuntary manslaughter trial of actor Alec Baldwin, nearly three years after cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was fatally shot on the New Mexico set of the Western film.
Asked about the live rounds of ammunition that were discovered on set, Poppell said investigators found some on a prop cart, in a box of ammo and also in two prop gun holsters — the one worn by Alec Baldwin and another worn by co-star Ackles.
my direct, personal experience with that thing. I offered up my perspective. You responded with your perspective, based on your own anecdotal evidence.
So yours is “direct personal experience” and mine is “anecdotal evidence”?
Just like I said in my first comment, while you might be unaware of all types of blanks, that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. So rather than ask or research, you implied or even downright refuted the existence of such ammunition.
Why?
You didn’t ask “oh, how do those work vis-a-vis this thing”, you said “oh those would clog up your barrel”, because the BFA you used was different from the one we used.
Be open. Ask questions. Don’t say “that would cause X”. It sounds a bit like Flat Earthers who make weird claims about how far you’re supposed to see into the horizon.
Yeah, I was too confrontational, I admit that, and I apologise. The lack of tone of voice on text based messaging can be a bitch, but honestly, I feel like you weren’t being too open to types of weapon accessories that aren’t common in your part of the globe. (See how I snuck “globe” in there to piss off any would be Flat Earthers reading this. Also, I’ve had about bottle of Bacardi.) Being neutral online can actually lead to people perceiving your comments as hostile. Fucking annoying, innit?
