This would be like McDonalds getting sued for billing its meals as delicious. Why, people might order more if they believed that, and get fat and have a heart attack and die.
It already went to trial and lost in almost all local, federal district courts, except in this case. Here it passed appellate review. The next stop is the U.S. Supreme court. It appears they will have to take the case as all other Circuit Courts have ruled the other way.
If I may bother you again, what do you say John?
The courts have abandoned reason, common sense, and the law itself.
I pray that sanity might claim our courts in my lifetime.
The Supreme Court should not duck this case. However, in the area of the 2nd Amendment, the Court has become a master of ducking the issue. I give it 50-50 that the Court will duck this case also. And if it takes this case, I shudder to anticipate what the Court will then do with the case.
That may not be what you wanted to hear. But that's my opinion from reading all of the Court's prior cases, most of which tap dance around the 2nd Amendment.

1. They only think they would be boycotted for supporting the NRA. I suspect the real answer is that their sales would increase.
Since they think this way we have to drag them into it against their will. The judge has shown us the way in the written opinion. Says it is perfectly logical for them to be sued with the same kind of reasoning. A little legal seed money to get some really big corporations on the wrong side of a few lawsuits and they would suddenly find they had common cause with the NRA and with Glock.
Not directly. They steal the guns, or other stuff to get money to buy the guns stolen by others. What welfare does is give them the "freedom" not take care of their responsibilities, like providing for, and raising their kids. Those kids are mostly the ones doing the stealing and the killing.
Not wit. These days, for quite some decades in fact, the jury is only to try the facts, they are not to judge the law as brought down from on high by the judges.
...and 'spoon manufacturers' are at fault for Rosie O'Donnell being fat...?
Thank you for your reply and the link.
