I didn't go disabled from the work. I went disable from being pinned between a runaway pickup truck and a brick wall. I died 3 times in the ambulance and woke up in St. Thomas hospital 27 days later from a drug induced coma. All I remember was some screaming to look out and then I woke up in the hospital. I was at work when I got hit. I was told by doctors what they had to do to keep me alive which was remove my spleen that was ruptured, remove 3 broken ribs from my left lung and pin them back were they belonged and then put me in the coma to start the healing process or die. I was in ICU for 47 days all together before being moved to a room and then they began working on the broken bones. They said they wanted to make sure I was going to survive before fixing the bones. They had to rebreak several that had already began healing. The orthopedic doctor said that 66% of the bones in my body were broke or fractured. The fractures would heal on their own but the broken ones would need to be repaired which was my left leg broke in 3 places and and left arm broke in 2. The surgeons that worked on me told me that my entire abdomen had experienced a very traumatic impact and would never be as strong as it was before getting hit. I got hit on April 17, 1978 and got to leave the hospital in December after my last of 4 surgeries to fix things showing up while I was in the hospital. The Orthopedic doctor told me that by age 50 I would begin the develop Arthritis and he missed in by 10 years as it began to show at age 60. I was able to return to work in March of 79 and during the next 20 years I had to undergo 4 abdominal hernia repairs with the last one ending my working career. The doctor that did the last one told me if I got another one it would put me in bed for life. I went fishing.....LOL. I had to give that up about 3 years ago because most of my body has some type of Arthritic issue with my hands and legs being the worst.

I was an ASE Certified Auto Technician for 35 years before going 100% disabled. That was just a fancy name for a professional Auto mechanic / Grease monkey. Took up the hobby of making fishing baits for people and sold that to Chuckshoes and don't know how he is doing with it. I hope fine!!! Now I just piddle around staying out of trouble.....LOL

Baldwin shoots two on movie set, accidental misfire???
bersaguy replied to TennesseeCamper's topic in General Chat
This is not the first movie to be made on this site in NM. I have read that 6 other previous movies have been made here and there was never an issue as the people producing and directing the movies were all Hollywood professionals using local 44 personnel in the making of the picture. -

Well as much as I dislike Alec Baldwin because of how he treats people in general I am sorry that this incident too place at all and a young mother and wife died and director was injured but I still don't think this should just get a pass without someone or more than one person be found guilty of something and have to pay for what happened......JMHO -

He may be idolized by the non-Trumper's but if you ask plain people in New York city about him personally they don't like him. He treats many folks like crap in that city and has made a lot of enemies there. He has been in the news often about his treatment of people just walking down the street. if they don't move over when he is walking in their direction and he explodes with his super attitude! -

I think his gun safety record is in the minus column after last Thursday and he is one of the do say as I say not as I do crowd which I think he will get booted out of that group also. The DA is considering filing criminal charges but did not say at who? Might be a couple people before it's over.........JMHO -

According to the police report the bullet passed through the woman and into the man. I guess that is the fault of the armorer mostly because she is responsible for making sure she keeps her eye on the firearms at all times and she should not have let anyone to take a gun from her possession to go out and play with it and go target shooting. She told them when they said they wanted her to work the movie, she said up front she didn't know if she was ready to do that job and they hired her anyway. They said she was no where to be found when the fatal shot was fired. I would also think that the armorer had cleared the gun when she placed it on the cart before they went plinking but don't know that for sure....JMHO -

If they educated themselves with guns there would be less anti-gun people and many that claim to be anti-gun people own guns now but don't want other people to have them. Pray-tell I would be afraid to guess how many guns are inside that bubble you speak of.......JMHO -

This whole thing comes from being to cheap to hire professional people. They had people working on the movie set that didn't have a clue about just how dangerous being stupid can be. That is probably why the first crew quit and walked off the site and they panicked and rush to bring in another local crew in and it was shortly after that Alec fire the fatal shot. The female Armorer even admitted she didn't know if she had enough experience to do the job and they hired her anyway.......... -

I think he will end up being charge with something. He is not just going to walk! Right now he has a lot of people watching Hollywood and all of Tinsel Town to see where they stand on the issue. I pretty much think I know where Local 44 stands on it. If he walks away without anything being charged against him it will put a black cloud over Hollywood every time they try to make a movie involving firearms people will remember this!!!......JMHO -

I can't wait to hear how this is played out when it is all said and done and the case is closed. Hollywood is one of the most anti-gun lobbyists in the country yet some of their biggest block buster movies, guns are a big attraction. If there was going to be an accidental firearms you would think it would have happened is any of the John Wick movies. According to research John Wick shot and killed 108 people in the first movie yet no one was hurt for real. But then John Wick was portrayed by Keanu Reeves which is a firearms advocate and supports the 2nd Amendment and I would bet he practices gun safety even when he is on the movie set.........JMHO -

bersaguy replied to TennesseeCamper's topic in General Chat
To me it appears there were a bunch of people unhappy with how the entire program was being run and any number of people could be guilty of putting live rounds in the gun. Regardless of who put them in it, if Baldwin failed to do what is correct and clear the gun himself before firing it he would have realized the gun was hot and stopped filming right then. Especially with knowing they had two misfires and learned they had live ammo on the site previously. He failed rule #1 in gun safety and that is "You always clear a firearm when handed to you regardless of who handed it to you." JMHO -
Back years ago when I was hunting they use to have draw hunts on Ft Campbell and you could take 1 Doe and 1 buck per hunt in certain areas to help control the population. I don't know if they still have those hunts or not anymore. I do believe that soldiers on the base, veterans and handicap veterans can hunt certain areas but not sure

I had 17 guns taken from my home while we were dealing with my son after his accident and we were not going home because he was in a coma and a lot of people knew we were staying at the hospital. That was back in 86-87. None of them have turned up and I have given up getting any back. If I die they will call my youngest Son because his name is also on police report for Contact information. One of the guns was his anyway.

I have been using the same doctor for going on 23 years and she has kept me alive and healthy so I trust her and when this crap showed up I went to her for advice on the Vaccine and the shots and I asked her if she was planning on getting the shot and she didn't hesitate when she said NO!!! so if she is not getting it neither am I and I said call me if you change your mind and I have not heard back from her on it.
