Comical that people want to call Baldwin a murderer. I think we all know why.

He’s an asshole but it has absolutely nothing to do with this case. If there’s something to be mad at him about it’s the voicemail he left his daughter years ago. He sure as shit isn’t a murderer or manslaughterer. The fact he was charged on this was purely a political stunt- this was hardly the first time something like this has happened on set and we already know what the precedent was. But he did an impression of a guy some ppl rly like so he should go to jail for murder lmao

The poor woman’s family should receive A LOT of money tho
I worked on movie sets for 35 yrs, your take is comical!
You haven't a clue what you're talking about!
Alec Baldwin should be guilty of at least manslaughter!
He has worked with guns many times in his career,
He should know better than to point a gun at people behind the camera.
There are safety meetings before guns or any other weapons are used on a set.
Multiple precautions are taken, all were ignored on that set, there should never be live rounds anywhere near a set at anytime.

Damn well it looks like reality agrees with me and not you. Tough scene!

If anybody were to get manslaughter charges it should be the person who put live rounds in the gun. People will be held financially accountable and as sad as that is over a human life that’s pretty much what the precedent has been

Nice! I lived right by “skinny house” on 58 by twin lakes. I love the area still, and one of my closest friends still lives down off Ocean Ave. i do not miss the trash/recycling protocols of Halifax. I lived on a paper street and lost track of how many times I had to call and have them come back out for trash pickup
Yeah we're in a neighborhood right off of 106. We're moving in 3 weeks.

I've heard the trash is a pain in the ass. Can you use your own bags and then just shove them all in the town bags, or does each one need to be its own?

Put an offer in for a house down in Fairhaven. I went from Dorchester to Whitman, to Halifax, to Kingston, back to Whitman...and now I'm house hunting in Fairhaven. I keep getting further and further away from my roots and it kills me. BUT, the kids live in Fairhaven. It is what it is I guess.

Approximately 6million people were at the open house we attended recently, and we had the audacity to offer less than the asking price, so I don't expect to win this race. I'm ok with it either way. We each own a 2 family right now and we kinda live out of both houses now, so we don't NEED to buy a house.

Anyway, we should find out today where we stand. Excited. Scared. Anxious. A little of everything
Good luck Chuck! Househunting sucks, especially when you're in the "waiting to find out" phase. I hope it all works out for you.

I had to have Daisy put to sleep today.

My heart is in a bazillion pieces.

Hug your puppies.

So sorry for your loss. If cookies would help, I'd send you a million. Sending virtual hugs instead.

Those are the nicer areas of Halifax for sure. Great spot to be. The Walmart is a great grocery spot, and the happy dragon Chinese joint is solid.

I used my own bags and jammed as much and as many as i could into the town bags. They are purposely expensive in an effort to reduce waste. It used to be two different sized town bags but not sure if it’s still like that. I preferred the smaller bags just because i didn’t have enough waste to be tossing a large town bag per week. Recycling was every other week, but they would never take mine so i just brought it up to the recycle center on 106.

I think the one thing the north and south shore can both agree on is that Quincy f***ing sucks.
It's on, Mike.

I'm also a North Quincy guy. Otherwise known as "God's country," I'd be happy to meet you behind the old Merit station and buy you a Heffenrefer and then give you an ass-kicking. :laugh:

Like most of my NQ friends, I've since migrated south and am now in Norwell.

Proving my point. You'd never hear something like this from a north shore guy, the most genteel region of Massachusetts.

wow I am surprised there are even a few people on the board that know where Halifax is. I grew up in Halifax and moved all the way to Kingston where I live now.

Yeah, out of all the people I've told where we're moving to, maybe 10% of them know where Halifax is.

I'm excited to be kinda secluded, but still close enough to anywhere I need to go.

You can try Mikes House of Pizza just to hear them very timidly say “house…pizza…” when they answer the phone. But just know that it’s not great and they do not deliver. Thank god cape cod cafe moved in right on 106 because that area was STARVING for a decent pizza joint.
