umm a prop gun on a movie set? really? that's pretty much the only time you should point it at somebody

The people he pointed it at were in the movie?
He pointed at 2 people as a joke when they told him that he needs to do another take of the scene

How do you hit 2 people with one pull of the trigger?

no access to site
why was a prop gun loaded?

Prop guns fire blanks, gunpowder charges that produce a flash and a bang but not a hard projectile. But when the trigger is pulled, the paper or plastic wadding is ejected from the barrel with enough force that it can be lethal at close range, as proved to be the case in the death of an actor in 1984.

Why assume it was pulled once? At this stage, everyone is guessing. We have no idea what happened.

No I am saying they are just making things up. That is different than jumping to conclusions. I guess to some they can be one in the same.

My understanding was that he shot as part of the scene but unbeknown to him there was a(t least 1) live round that hit 2 people involved in the set. Where did you see otherwise?

“There are no words to convey my shock and sadness regarding the tragic accident that took the life of Halyna Hutchins, a wife, mother and deeply admired colleague of ours. I’m fully cooperating with the police investigation to address how this tragedy occurred and I am in touch with her husband, offering my support to him and his family. My heart is broken for her husband, their son, and all who knew and loved Halyna.”

He might have done exactly what you have said but that doesn't change your sick posts.

“[Baldwin’s] problems don’t lie in what he did as an actor. It will certainly come out that he thought he was firing a blank. The real issue is his role as a producer and the safety protocols – or lack thereof – on the set. If real negligence is proven, that could result in criminal charges.”
