An absurd attempt by the anti-gun Brady Campaign to hold online ammunition and shooting sport accessory companies responsible for the actions of a madman has been dismissed.
The lawsuit filed by the parents of a woman killed in the Colorado theater shootings, accusing four online retailers of improperly selling ammunition, tear gas, a high-capacity magazine and body armor used in the attack, has been dismissed.
According to court documents obtained by CBS4 Friday afternoon, Judge Richard P.

It stated the companies had no safeguards to keep dangerous people from buying their goods.
