Baldwin's gun paradox typically occurs when a specific and equal amount of responsibility is distributed to a number of individuals surpassing the sum of 1, usually as a form of repetitive fail-safe (ie verify that a gun is not loaded with real bullets before it is fired at someone or confirming that no one is standing in the industrial oven with a timed locked door before it is turned on), sometimes resulting in each successive person erroneously believing that the person prior to them made the proper verification which they are now themselves certifying without any actual verification from their part as required by their role. Any guilt resulting from a catastrophic failure of the entire verification chain will either be attributed to none of the individuals involved or exclusively to the lowest person on the totem pole.

Get the Baldwin Blank mug.When a person clears a firearm, be it real or prop, and pulls the trigger later, firing off a round. This is known as The Baldwin Affect.
Many believe that the ghost of Alexander Rae Baldwin Sr. Is to blame. Some say he follows Alec everywhere attwmpting to load unloaded guns that Alec is going to handle. Reports have shown that the ghost of Alec's grandfather is very angry with him for being gay. Which is perfectly fine, you know.
While it is not necessary for a fatality to occur during The Baldwin Affect. It is encouraged.
