Oh, no. I was smiling the entire time I wrote it.
Hey you ignorant mother-fucker.
On a movie set...you aim the gun at what the director tells you to aim at. Most of the time, you are aiming at a director or cinematographer.
Here is a scene where the actor is aiming at the goddam cinematographer or director...which is the usual case.

Lmfao. You're a fucking dunce. Lmfao my dogs shit is smarter than you
Awww...you are upset. I suppose you also think your dog's shit tastes better than mine. Oh, well...you should know. I'll just have to take your word for it.

Frankey, aside from your avatar leaning right which in itself is comical, you need to understand the four rules of gun safety which would have saved at least one life assuming baldwin does not jump off a pier.
Memorize and analyze each and get back to us when you understand what they mean.
The 4 universal rules of gun safety are:
Treat all guns as if they are always loaded.
Never let the muzzle point at anything that you are not willing to destroy.
Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on target and you have made the decision to shoot.
Be sure of your target and what is behind it.
When an actor is acting out a scene...he aims the gun he holds at the spot directed by the director. It is a continuity feature of making a film.
If you cannot get that...chalk it up to your lack of intelligence...or rationalize it away.
My avatar does not lean right...it leans left. You are looking at it leaning, so you see it as leaning right.
I told you not to come back until you have read and comprehended the four rules of gun safety. YOU NEED TO PAY ATTENTION.
Now go back and read rule #1.
Frankey, you have a couple problems.
1. Your fucking avatar leans to te right.
2. When anyone hands a gun to another individual, it is that persons responsability to check and make sure it is unloaded.
You have to understand how movies are made.
Now go play with the other kids.
Soon, you will feel better.
Let me guess your age, somewhere in your late eighties.
No need to guess. I have identified myself as being 85 years old.
What does that have to do with the FACT that when you are an actor in a movie...the director tells you where to look (staging requires it)...and if you have a gun, the director tells you (DIRECTS YOU) where to point it.
So get off your bullshit little boy. Act like an adult, if you can manage it.
I guess when I am talking to an 85 year old with an addled brain it is best to just let him/her/alphabet their way. If anybody ever hands you a gun and tells you where to point it,make sure the person changing your depends daily is not in the room with you.
Indeed.

except when making a fucking movie, stupid fuck.
I am a very healthy 85...no need for Depends...which requires a capital "D" you moron. A person my age engaged with a child in an Internet discussion can always count on the child using the Depends bit. Oh, well...children will be children. And I am sure your friends from the sandbox laughed along with you.
In any case, I have never had a scene in a movie requiring a gun...so that problem has not presented itself. But in goddam near every movie where a handgun is used, it will be pointed toward the camera or toward a position alongside the camera, where cameramen, directors, or other movie shooting crew are standing. It is intrinsic to handgun scenes. A movie showing a handgun from the potential victim's perspective...IS POINTED AT OR NEAR THE CAMERA.
Got that, child?
Alan Dershowitz Says It’s ‘Likely’ On-Set Hutchins Killing A ‘Homicide’
The on-set killing of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins likely constitutes “homicide,” or a criminal killing, famed lawyer Alan Dershowitz explained in an opinion piece published Sunday
The on-set killing of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins likely constitutes “homicide,” or a criminal killing, famed lawyer Alan Dershowitz explained in an opinion piece published Sunday.
Actor and co-producer Alec Baldwin on Thursday shot Hutchins and director Joel Souza while on the film set for “Rust,” killing Hutchins and wounding Souza. According to a court document, Baldwin was told he was handed a “cold gun” before firing at the camera, striking the two crew members. It still remains unclear if the “live round” was real ammunition.
Dershowitz asserts at The Hill that “two things” seem clear in the incident: “guidelines seem not to have been followed in this case, and the existing guidelines seem insufficient to prevent accidents like this.”
“It is likely, therefore, that the killing of Halyna Hutchins could constitute a homicide — that is, a criminal killing,” he said. “The remaining questions are who might be criminally responsible for the killing and what degree of homicide fits the evidence?”

I admire Frank for being even older than I am: it's not something everyone achieves. I've lost four cousins this year who couldn't keep up.
As for the effects of the American obsession with guns, I think polite people just avoid the topic as too embarrassing to go on talking about, like Trumping.
According to the most recent figures for England and Wales, there are 156,033 people certificated to hold firearms and they own 617,171 weapons. There are shotgun certificates which cover 1.4 million shotguns. Statistics for Scotland show that 70,839 firearms were held by 25,983 certificate holders in 2020.Aug 24, 2021
