    I would have too. A friendly stop and he jumps out shooting? Better for society when people like him are dead.

    If there are so many guns, why didn't someone shoot this low life?

    Because, given the absolute control the left have over the justice system in NY, a non-black person would be guaranteed a life sentence if they shot a black man.

    Anyone standing up to him on the train would be liable to be charged for assault also, even if they collected a beating (or worse) from the guy. There would be plenty of phone footage that would commence only after someone tried to correct the gross behaviour.

    Finally, there is the issue of attempting to control someone who is on ice or similar.

    I think the tshirts were crass, but Baldwin spent 4 years delivering puerile insults to President Trump, including insulting his family. The left can dish out bad behaviour, but not take it.

    What interests me is the paradox of Hollywood. It is the most woke industry in the world, yet it churns out movies full of extreme violence, usually where shooting is the resolution of the situation, if not 90% of the plot. Think of any Tarantino film.

    Exactly!
    Probably inappropriate, but years of listening to Baldwin spew trash about his family would have had him angry. Mind you, you should never do anything when you're angry.

    Well that's normally true, of course, but this was meant to be a prop gun with a blank. Baldwin was pointing the gun at the camera. It was part of the making of a film. Watch a western! People are always pointing find at each other. Or a cop show.... Or underbelly... Etc etc etc

    I have to admit I don’t get why these days they need a gun on set that is even capable of firing a real round.

    Are you telling me that a fake gun that makes a loud noise with a bit of smoke and flame wouldn’t do the trick?

    If you are, you obviously never saw my “M-16” that I was running around the neighbourhood with in 1981…

    Wow, how infected by your politics do you have to be to think that’s the reason no one intervened? The reason no one stepped in is because there wasn’t a man on that train. Everyone shrank in the face of bluster. Nothing more complicated than that. Happens all the time. Stepped in a number of times myself when everyone else just stands there and watches. One can only hope that their cowardice keeps them awake at night.
