What Glynn County, Georgia taught us last year...

 Alec Baldwin should be arrested already, and allowed to bond himself out.  A jury should decide, based on the gathered facts already leaking out of the investigation, if Mr. Baldwin was justified in killing another human being.

The police and prosecutors should NOT be deciding whether this was an accident based on the facts gathered. A jury MUST be convened if we've learned anything about the importance of each department playing their appropriate roles in administering justice.

Let a jury hear the details of the type of firearm Mr. Baldwin used to kill the woman he was working with.  Let a jury hear of the threatened strike actions that allegedly occured on the day of the killing.  Let a jury hear the details -- from the eyewitnesses and Mr. Baldwin himself if he chooses to testify under oath -- and decide if Mr. Baldwin is a credible actor on the witness stand.

We know from Hollywood's history that coverups were once the key to career making in the film industry.  (You know about Kirk Douglas, and the girlfriend with the abortion appointment who went missing with note to his name in her purse, right? *shudder*)

If Alec Baldwin isn't arrested and charged with manslaughter, and allowed like any other person charged with a crime to defend himself with the facts and witnesses he's assembled, then justice in the courts don't mean poof in America, even today.  It only reinforces that special players will get special treatment, again and again and again...

And -- if you want to put down an imminent work strike calling for better working conditions, and your're willing to sacrifice another to intimidate the remainder -- you've got nothing to lose but a woman's life.  #Time'sUp.He'sNotAVictim

ADDED:  "Don't take the law into your own hands... You take 'em to court!"  Now more than ever, we need the system to hold.

"All men* people are created equal in the eyes of the law..."

* I know what the generic "men" refers to, but just to spell it out for everyone, so we are all on the same page...   Their genders have nothing to do with it.  One took another's life.  The fact that he killed her, unless there are some underlying, observed, admittable mysogynistic character traits, would be irrelevant.  Baldwin has anger issues though, and now he has taken a life.  He should be arrested and charged, like any one else who fired a gun that killed someone.
