Alec Baldwin isn’t helping himself whenever he speaks out on the “Rust” shooting. At a moderated event at the Boulder International Film Festival on March 5, Baldwin alleged that the multiple lawsuits against him arose out of an interest in money. “What you have is a certain group of litigants on whatever side… their attitude is, well, the people who likely seem negligent have enough money,” Baldwin said (via The Hollywood Reporter), adding rhetorically, “Why sue people if you’re not going to get money?”

Well, we dare you to find one tweet supporting Baldwin after these comments. Criticizing the actor for saying the shooting had “two victims and nobody else is a victim, so to speak,” one user tweeted, “Alec Baldwin’s newest interview about the lawsuit is incredibly disgusting and wrong. Every person who was in that room is a victim. He is criminally responsible but he is not the only one, so are the props master and person that handed the gun over to Baldwin.” Another mockingly wrote, “People are murdered every day, so what’s wrong with a few deaths on a Hollywood set?” 

At least Baldwin’s Instagram followers are still focusing on his life’s positives. Posting an aerial view from his plane as it descended upon New York City on March 6, one such fan commented, “I am glad you finally posted again. I saw you in Miami Blues last night, I wondered how you were doing….”
