Well, with that conviction, she becomes a prohibited person. That ends her career of an armorer for life.  I wonder if she knows of that effect in all firearms matters.

I've often wondered how many "liberals," "leftists," whatever, are actually prohibited persons and don't even realize it.

If she got the max, I am really curious what that means for the man that pulled the trigger.  He ought to get at least that much.


On Terry's post above, I agree her career as an armourer is over, but it probably was before the conviction too.  I am curious how closely Hollywood follows the prohibited person laws. I have been ever since Marky Mark decided to be an action star.  There's lots of DUI felons in Hollywood too. And they get handed guns all the time.

Oh, there's a joke that goes, "I feel so much safer now that Martha Stewart can't have a gun any more."

On DUIs, a lot depends on when and where the violation occurred. 

Over the growing noise about drunk driving, the penalties have gone up from, say, "$100 and ten days" upward and upward until they had to determine technical "legal limits" as to how drunk you really are.

Not that I'm "for" drunk driving, but I wanted to point out that the misdemeanor-to-felony continuum on it depended a lot on place and date.

Yep.  "The buck stops here."  (Unless you have the bucks to stop it before it gets up to you.)

I don't know if it's real either, but it's quite possible. The nutjob that confronted Baldwin does crazy *expletive deleted*it like that all the time for clicks.

Just how obnoxious does somebody need to be to make Alec Baldwin a sympathetic character? If I were in his shoes, I would have punched her like she was a man.
