BTW there is a lot on this on Twitter - enough to demonstrate to me at least that Baldwin and his fellow producers cut some corners, and did follow safety protocols on set, nor did they take measures to ensure their film crew was safe and well rested.
I think you meant to say that they did NOT follow safety protocols?
And while I'm not following this that closely, I did read an interview with somebody who works in the industry who said, yeah, there's no need to use real guns at all anymore, it's just safer to edit in the few remaining tells in post-production, and the fact that they were using real guns strongly suggests that they weren't doing any of the obvious safety protocols you're supposed to be using when you're using real guns. Which are dangerous even if they're firing blanks.
