Alex Baldwin has some ‘splainin to do. Rules on Set No clowning around! Anyone pointing firearms at anyone (other than rehearsing) will be wrapped. Do not point at anyone directly within 10 feet. Putting a gun with blanks to your head will blow a piece of your skull into your brain if the trigger is pulled.

The building was never at risk. The FBI and the troublemaker provided money, logistics and fake bombs. In another useless sting, Ikaika Kange, a U.S. Army soldier who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, was charged with assisting Da’esh, the Islamic State.
