Such as, dissolving police departments instead of the rational thing, look at how to improve them.

It was an extreme analogy, an engineer’s perspective if you will. Its purpose was to demonstrate that the degree to which we overhaul a system shouldn’t be based on how poorly one negligent entity followed its rules. I regret using it because it was beside my point and is obviously triggering.

Anytime there is negligence, you gotta find a way to do better.

If you’re saying you have to create a better system, I half agree. When accidents happen, there are two options: A. Change the system B. Hold the individual who violated the system accountable

That being said, I don’t know this system, and if it’s common to leave guns unlocked and unsupervised on a cart, I agree with you that this system needs to be changed; again, just not by having everyone and anyone on the set handling and making judgement calls on a firearm.

Its just that every profession that uses firearms has straight forward protocols that are fairly strictly adhered to.

Two eyes on a round are better than one. Set people examine, load and tag gun. Have it reviewed again before using, take tag off and use. Basically transferring safety measures from other realms.

I don't think it's impractical to have people who use firearms on a set to understand basic safety, this is a requirement in every other profession. This is what Scruffy alluded to earlier, it seems the acting profession is the only one where the shooter is excluded from any safety considerations.

I'm not sure why that's being controversial here.
