Today in the morning Santa Fe was in the news on TV. They reported that Actor
Alec Baldwin has accidentally shot a camera woman, because the gun used for
acting was fully loaded. It is rare that Santa Fe is mentioned here in the
newshttps://apnews.com/article/entertainment-arts-and-entertainment
Too many loaded guns in NM.
Are you coming here Jochen? We used to meet at St John's College
coffee shop. There are many excellent places to have breakfast here. I
recommend Saveur.

I still can't separate abuse from good stewardship. What are those puppies
thinking while they're standing there like that? Is it cathartic to ... wait
for it ... wait for it ... wait for it ... GO!!! Does that feel good? Or is it

Your note does seem to suggest that you are coming. I would greatly look
forward to meeting with you, if that is the case.
It is my understanding that loaded guns are normally prohibited on movie sets
for the obvious reasons. Somebody must have been effing nuts.

Glen,
Surely it's a fake. Stopped image with a little birdsong added. Eh?

Maybe. The Jester's fond of deep fakes. But if it is, it's a good one. You can
see the front two dogs eyes moving, a little tail vibration in one dog's, etc.

And even if it's fake, it doesn't change the point I *actually* made in the

There is so much speculation about this, so I would like to add a bit of my
own. A trustworthy source tells me that "blank" bullets come in many
different forms. Some of them can be dangerous at close range. Also, it is
not uncommon for something to get clogged in the barrel of a gun, and when

The Guardian article on this incident mentioned Brandon Lee's death under
similar circumstances. And claims the autopsy turned up an actual slug.

Regardless. Nobody wins in any of these scenarios. Our gun fetish is a problem.

No, we were wondering about a vacation in the US next year, but I do not feel
safe because of this gun problem. If we rent a car, a police man stops us and I

When I first moved to Los Alamos, the armed Protective Force there had

ammunition in place to prevent live-fire acci
Thanks for the thoughtful reply. I regret to say that my mathematics sense
has declined to the point where I am unable to follow a lot of what you are
saying.

Jochen,
That we should not see you because you fear being gunned down in our streets
seems like some sort of over correction. Why don’t you at least go through
the visa process so that once in Canada you can cross the border if you have
the impulse? I am never in Santa Fe in the summer
Glen,
I couldn't see movement, but my eyes aren't great at detail, these days, so
perhaps there was.
My understanding of dogs and training is that many dogs want to know what their
job is. When you train them, it gives them a job, and they take pleasure in
accomplishing the job. The treat,
Jochen - I'm sorry that you feel as unsafe as you say about guns in the
USA. My own feeling, based on living in the States from birth until age 49
(13 years ago), is that the danger and direct impact on society from
firearms is much exaggerated by the news media. Like so many issues of our
time, ou
No. If you read the article carefully, sometimes guns with blanks and guns
without bullets can kill people, and it has happened befofe on movie sets.
It was a terrible and tragic accident. I'm sure we'll learn what went
wrong.

Jochen,
I've spent more than 1/3 of my 78 years in New Mexico including the last
22. I've never been shot at, I've never seen anyone be shot, and I've
never known anyone who was killed or wounded by gunfire. I used to shoot
rabbits when I was a teenager but I regret that very much.
The police I
Well, to contrast that a bit, I've had guns pointed at me (aggressively) 3
times. (Many more "playfully".) None of them pulled the trigger, luckily. But
that just proves that they do NOT take guns seriously. They are more toy, less
weapon ... which makes them even more dangerous. Also, 2 of my f
Jochen would be wise to take vacation in a civilized country.
Oh, yes. For sure. But not because of the guns.
