Having union crews on a set where someone got killed has nothing really to do when comparing someone being killed on a non union set. Comparisons like that are food for folly.
I seen people run stop signs and not hit anyone and seen others stop and still get hit. Should we get rid of stop signs?
Union sets have much stricter standards and despite that, accidents do happen. This recent one was a killing in the making with two separate incidents from the same armorer days earlier in the shoot, which had the union camera operators walk off the set for safety concerns.
Unions are not sacred cows. My goodness. Do you view the common person striving for better working conditions as that?
All the best,
