But car companies don't get sued if someone gets drunk, gets behind the wheel, and kills someone. How is that the fault of the car manufacturer?
As to who they are sold to, that's up to gun dealers and background checks.
I agree.
So let's hold gun dealers responsible and have thorough background checks.
And when a gun store has "Official Colt Dealer" posters in their windows, Colt should be responsible for them performing the background checks and not selling guns to people who look shady.
You want to make that judgment based on how someone LOOKS, Joe?
You sure you want to go there?
I think you guys know exactly what I mean... the gun sellers know who the bad guys are, they just don't give a fuck.
It should be pointed out that when the police backtracked legally sold guns used by criminals, they found most of them came from a handful of shops that werent' doing the background checks.
So simple enough solution. If you sell a gun, and it is used in a crime, you own that crime as much as the guy who did it.
