And that has zero to do with his politics or Trump impersonations. Just a thoroughly detestable dude.

What do you mean the charge is unjust... lets remove the "prop" from this situation. In any other circumstances if a person was handed a gun and told it was "cold" and that person point and pulled the trigger and killed someone. The prosecuting attorney would be stating rightfully so that you failed to confirm that and your willful negligence resulted in someones death. Guilty as charged.... but some how add the chaos of a movie production and toss in "prop" that somehow removes all personal responsibility in gun safety. Nah that should compound the double checking Also a cold gun is clear nothing but air in the chamber... something he could of confirmed in a second or two. Dumby rounds... no primers seated..what 5 to 10 seconds. Blanks in under 30 seconds to check for crimped casings and weed out live rounds.
There are no accidents with guns... only negligence. Either willful or ingonrence but negligence all the same.
