Well, that's the only people they can sue to get money out of it.

Just like smokers who got cancer... "hmmm who can I sue to get money?"

This really is ridiculous. They caught the guy. The gun didn't kill those people. Idiots.

Dumbasses! I wish the courts would throw stupid suits like this out and then charge the people that brought them for wasting the court's time.
 

who knew guns are used to shoot people?

Sigh. Idiots in this country. Why is there not a law against such pointless lawsuits? Why must the courts hear this crap? Why are they not laughed out of court?

Well suing Bushmaster is stupid, but thier is good evidence that the guns store lost that gun or allowed Williams to just walk out of the store with it. In my opinion you lose a weapon, then someone else can use it and you need to be held liable for that negligence. Look at the penaltys for misplacing a weapon in the military for example.

They should sue the mining company that pulled the ore out of the earth to make the gun too...


I feel for them, but this is just trying to take advantage of a situation.

So I break into your house and steal your gun then go kill someone with it. You're saying you are liable right?

There's nothing wrong with the second amendment.

Hey, if you believe in freedom, including the freedom to own guns, then people got a right to sue too.

It all flows from the same thing, freedom.

Nobody makes companies produce and sell guns, if they don't wanna get sued, don't make them.

Very true. The problem is that our litigious society has become conditioned to the attitude that if anything bad ever happens to you, you're automatically entitled to large sums of money.

That is the intent of the suits. If you cannot get something banned by law, just make it too expensive via lawsuits! It is the Liberal way, but decidedly not the American way!

We need TORT REFORM!

"We naturally don't feel it's legitimate," Faraday said of the lawsuit. "Nowadays, lawyers are looking to file lawsuits wherever they can."


Lawyers suck.....Well,alot of them do anyways.
