You and me both. When I'm in the presence of people who (I feel) are
a bit too cavalier with a firearm, I get very nervous, and my natural
instinct is to get the hell away from that person. I was taught to
treat every firearm as if it is loaded. My bolt action rifle, I keep
the bolt stored separate from the rifle. I don't put it in until I am
ready to use it.

One junk news article has another person on the set saying his finger
was on the trigger guard.
Whether single or double action, a revolver takes some force to fire.
I supposed if it was fully cocked and adjusted to have a hair trigger
it is possible to be extra easy to touch off.
I just cannot imagine someone handing me a firearm expecting me to
wave it around in the general direction of people and me not checking
it first. I would never trust someone’s word on that.

From where I'm sitting there had to be multiple screw ups. First is
the security of the weapons. Based on what I've read (and I don't
know how much of it is true), the weapons were on a table; they had
been used for "target practice" during breaks; the armorer had
declared them to be "cold" (in my mind that means there is nothing in
the chambers; not blanks, not anything).
If it was a dress rehearsal, I would expect that there were multiple
cameras running. Digital film does not cost enough to matter, and it
can be used to determine if they're getting the shots they want.

Something a lot of people are leaving out is that movie set gun
safety is likely quite different than real life gun safety. Likely,
the same rules don't apply in both scenarios.

Amazing how less dead that lady would be if this guy wasnt handling a
magic gun pointing it at people on a scene that had no call to point
at people in an industry where you dont point firearms at people with
a firearm you dont point at anything youre not prepared to destroy...
but sure, he didnt pull the trigger. Totally trust a mope who beats
people up over parking spots
