Want ONE simple law to help curb mass-shootings?

[Lonestar_logic]

And if you sell your car to some clown who later drives drunk and kills someone, the victim's family should be able to sue YOU for millions in damages, right???

Pretty dumb response (as always)......Name another manufacturer...beside gun ones......who CANNOT be sued by consumers?

Just about every hammer, knife, 2x4 manufacturer. Need more names?

if the injury or death resulted from side effects that were unavoidable even though the vaccine was properly prepared and was accompanied by proper directions and warnings."

RE-READ that last part, above.

You can't sue if the vaccine hurts or kills you. Period.

But you can be compensated by a government fund. The purpose is to allow companies to make vaccines without the risk of going bankrupt. In order to be covered, they are under far more government oversight than other types of treatments.

Regarding the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, an editorial, in The Washington Post said the legislation “barely pretends to be anything other than a special-interest gimme designed to shield the gun industry from lawsuits.”

Actually, we should always follow what lobbyists push (aka, BRIBE) congress to do (and in some instance, NOT to do) when searching for legislation to curb an abuse of the common welfare and good.

Regarding mass murders, we know that gun manufacturers (and their bought puppet, the NRA) fought and won the right to NOT be sued for the misuse of their deadly products.

If we wanted to make a substantial dent with mass shootings (almost impossible to eliminate without reversing the Constitution's 2nd amendment) pass a law that gun manufacturers AND gun vendors can be sued when their product is sold WITHOUT a thorough background and psychological clean bill of health.

We are a nation that believes in equal protection under the law, so I expect that the same liability will be applied to the manufacture and sale of every single product in this country. Got a problem with that?

More stupid than usual response (not an easy task for you...but, congrats)

When was the last time you heard of mass-murders....like the babies in Newtown...committed with a hammer?

The op asked for another manufacturer that could not be sued and I gave him one.

So you want to give these manufacturers and vendors access to your life history, including all medical records? What if they decide that women who have had an abortion is not responsible enough to own a gun?

Connecticut (a huge gun-manufacturing state) is attempting to sue Bushmaster Firearms International, LLC, after the Newtown MASSACRE.

However, the state faces a steep uphill climb because of a decade-old federal law called the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (signed by GWB in 2005)that gives the gun industry broad immunity.

Because SANE people don't hold the manufacturer responsible, unless the product is defective.

 

[nat4900]

What you can't sue for is someone using it, and the weapon working as intended.

No, in CT, the gun manufacturer is being sued for allowing the sale of a weapon that was SOLELY intended to be used by soldiers in a war setting....not to kill babies.

You can't sue a manufacturer over their product unless some defect in the product causes harm. In the case of illegal shootings, the product is working fine...tis the user who is using it illegally. Try again, this time use your brain, not your dipstick, Jimmy.

Yeah, really "brilliant"...now we are concerned about gun manufacturers NOT selling enough guns?

Which weapon was that?

and if it is SOLELY intended for use by soldiers, what was a civilian doing with it?

and how many THOUSANDS of civilians own one?

All firearms are intended to shoot a projectile down range. There is no "intention" by the manufacturer of who or what will be on the receiving end of that projectile. The stupid is strong in you...and the CT legislature.

Unfortunately, the technology is still pretty lame on fingerprint security for gun users. If technology could work out the bugs and make it at least 97% fail safe, it could be one alternative.

Your question, "Name another manufacturer...beside gun ones......who CANNOT be sued by consumers?" , didn't mention anything about "mass-murders".

If you had any sense, you'd feel stupid right about now.

Actually, you're too much of a moron to partake in any debate. Want to continue the carnage???

Wonder why gun manufacturers BRIBED congress to protect them from ANY liability????

Post 16 only proves that the state of Conneticrap is as fucking stupid as you are.
