And every other surviving child should get the same amount... say about 200 kids in the school...
$100 million x 200... plus $200 million x 26... that's about $25.2 billion total.
The Connecticut state budget for education is about $11 billion. So we need to shut down every school in the state for over 2 years because somehow the taxpayers must be punished for the acts of Adam Lanza.
Oops! It was the largest elementary school in the state. 600+ students. So make that total $65.2 billion in jury awards. Let’s shut down their schools for the entire state of 6 years then.
Why don’t they sue the Lanza family?
The thing is, that they will go after the firearms manufactures.
Even if Bushmaster, Glock et al are found only one percent responsible, if the suit is for 100 million dollars.....
Thinking like a leftist lawyer, I would go after the companies that made the weapons and the dealers that sold them, even if one out of a hundred lawsuits won, and even if only for a few percent liability, one could put a lot of people out of business.
