Covid Andy's Junk Gun Laws and Lawsuits

New York's governor said he intends to address gun violence the same way he addressed the COVID-19 epidemic. Here we go...

New York Governor Andrew "Covid Andy" Cuomo said that he intends to address gun violence the same way he addressed the Covid-19 epidemic. This is hardly reassuring because his directive for nursing homes to readmit Covid-positive patients may well have killed thousands of senior citizens in 2020. While there is controversy as to the extent that the directive in question caused most of the deaths, common sense says you do NOT put people with a highly communicable and lethal disease in a setting with the people who are most vulnerable to dying from it along with their caregivers. The FBI is apparently investigating "whether the governor and his senior aides provided false data on resident deaths to the Justice Department," as well.

Jurors Should Trash-Can Junk Gun Lawsuits

It is astounding that, while Covid Andy enacted legislation to shield nursing homes from liability for Covid-19 deaths, he also signed legislation to allow junk lawsuits against gun manufacturers. The fact that these junk lawsuits are now legal in New York does not mean, however, that jurors need to respect them or those who file them. It is illegal to discuss a case with a juror after he or she has been selected, which means we need to pre-educate all potential jurors (i.e. all citizens) before they are even called. I would need less than five minutes to judge a case in which a criminal used a firearm to harm another person, and I would need witnesses to answer exactly two questions: (1) Did the manufacturer sell the firearm to a Federally-licensed, and therefore Federally-supervised, gun dealer? (2) Did the gun dealer perform the required background check

“New York Governor Andrew “Covid Andy” Cuomo said that he intends to address gun violence the same way he addressed the Covid-19 epidemic.”

Wow. Does that mean that his idiot brother will be a victim of “gun violence?” Is he going to kill a bunch of old people with “gun violence?” Cuomo’s scandals seem to be receding into the background. That didn’t take long.

Why is he still in office after the many claims of sexual harassment and the mass murder of the elderly?

On the plus side, if they're supposedly investigating prominent Democrats (meaning drinking coffee & surfing the internet), at least they're not out in public shooting people:
