 @Jm-vn7zm Wrong. Safety is EVERYONE'S job, especially that of the person in the mirror.

@bbycherub2420 Sabotage? Torpedo? Poor quality workmanship?

@mrmorris2152 What's the matter with you? Didn't you listen to the story Rose told us? If you want to know what really happened read the transcript from the bridge audio recorder on the El Faro.

@Jack-dr2ry Once you get past a certain age even a "life sentence" isn't a threat...

@charliecane3621 Because you don't have a safe attitude. What Baldwin did is akin to a lockout-tagout violation. He failed to verify that the device was de-energized before performing work on it. Would you work on replacing a wall outlet without at least verifying that the power was actually out, or would you just take someone else's word for it?

@charliecane3621 To me, murder is deliberate...you meant to kill someone. Manslaughter is less, negligent homicide even less. I'm an electrician, not a lawyer, but he needs to do at least a year in prison for negligent homicide. Although he had no intention, his (in) actions resulted in a fatality.

@charliecane3621 The person who handed Baldwin the gun and said "cold gun" is the person who turned off the (hopefully correct) circuit breaker. Baldwin is the guy who, without bothering to verify that the power is actually de-energized, removed the outlet, got shocked, and blamed the other guy.

Because it's a good story?

Why am I reminded of Star Trek 6 and the cloaked Bird of Prey that could fire when cloaked? Obviously, a cloaked gunman stood right in front of Baldwin and fired the shot.

@neilkurzman4907 I don't know if it's true, but I read that Baldwin refused a firearms safety course. When you get ready to work on anything electrical, performing the verification testing is essential to your survival. People do things like turning the wrong breaker off. I've also found mislabeled breaker panels and, the deadliest of them all, a secondary power source that wasn't accounted for. In EVERY case, verification of the de-energized state by the man doing the job revealed the problem and saved his life. You can make all of the excuses you want. Baldwin was the man doing the job and was responsible for his, and by proxy, everyone else's safety. In my world, people don't get shot; they lose limbs and occasionally, lives. It was my job to make sure that everyone went home at the end of the day, and I exercised that responsibility faithfully, for 43 years.

@neilkurzman4907 My point wasn't what happened to the other actor; it was the fact that a "blank" killed Lee. At the end of the day, one man went to the undertaker, the other went home. Not acceptable. You put yourself in the shoes of the man who had to tell the deceased's family that their loved one isn't coming home tonight. I never wanted that job and did everything I could do to avoid it.

@neilkurzman4907 There is actually a third leg...lock out, tag out, try out. The machine operator attempts to operate the machine normally. But even that has a flaw. In 1999 I was a contractor working at the AK Steel roll coater near Owensboro, Kentucky. The plant was the latest, greatest version of Siemens automation. They had an incident where a mechanic was replacing a scrap belt shear blade. He performed the three-way LOTO procedure and got on the belt with his tools and the new blade. When he moved the blade frame (the air supply was part of the LOTO) the conveyor belt started working. The mechanic leaped off the belt and everything else went into the dumpster. Plant engineering had to perform an audit of all of the blueprints and find the secondary power source. Luckily, no one was hurt. They had to perform testing on every motor in the plant to verify that there were no more traps waiting. I do agree with you here.
