Alec Baldwin’s Interview on ABC

Did you catch the interview of Alec Baldwin last night with George Stephanopoulos? He talked about the horrible day in October of this year, when a prop gun went off on the set of Rust, and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and wounded director Joel Souza.

I found the interview very hard to watch. He turned my stomach inside out multiple times.

Baldwin showed an arrogance, a defiance and a callousness that bothered me.

Did you catch those? They are always red flags for you to pay attention, because exactly as seen, it can affect your safety. People who have those traits will always put themselves and their needs above you.

Baldwin actually showed more sadness for himself then he did for Halyna or the trauma he caused his crew. At times, it was simply, and disgustingly, all about him, even though he said that he did not want us to see him as a victim.

It’s very clear, however, Baldwin sees himself as a victim. He also sees himself as special and deserving of special treatment.

Do you see the signs of a toxic personality here??

I do.

According to Baldwin, nothing was his responsibility, and frankly, I don’t buy it. Not for a second.

His interview was done in desperation because he fears being held accountable and how that will cause him to suffer. It wasn’t about how his actions or in-actions caused grave harm and death. No, He doesn’t want to be held liable in anyway for what happened. The entire interview was him trying to find anything or anyone else to hang this horrible accident on.

I can’t imagine any lawyer telling him to do this interview. His arrogance actually hung him out to dry and will help those suing him. Not surprising for his personality type. They think they can convince you of their “truths”.

Do I believe Baldwin set out to intentionally harm people on the set? No.

Are there indications that someone else tried to cause havoc and harm on the set knowingly? I haven’t seen anything to support this yet, but that could always change. I’m not privy to the investigation.

Do I think there was a dangerous and reckless disregard for the safety of others? I absolutely do.

Do I think Baldwin was acting recklessly by not following safety protocols on the set? 1000%. And he should be held liable. He may not be the only person here who acted with recklessness and lack of concern for the safety of others, but he was at the helm of this production–the one ultimately responsible. And he doesn’t want to own that on any level.

Do I think Baldwin has skipped those safety steps before? I do. He clearly thinks he doesn’t have to do that stuff because he pays people, which is rubbish. Safety is safety and no one regardless of status is above that.

The fact that Baldwin said toward the end of the interview that he didn’t feel any guilt about what happened–I hope that cause a strong reaction in you, because it should. It shows his utter disregard for others and his completely lack of empathy. Any human being who has empathy would feel guilty as hell for what happened in that scenario and the fact he didn’t, speaks volumes.
