These two should be sued instead, as they are far more complicit than the firearms manufacturer and dealer.I’m not reading this tripe. They’re suing because “it’ll show the gun companies what they’re doing is wrong”. Oh, and they’ll be glad to settle out of court I’ll bet!!
“A confusingly written Florida statute stands in the way,” the attorneys wrote. “If the defendants claim that [the law] entitles them to immunity from such claims, and the courts agree,” the victims will be forced to pay the gun maker’s and seller’s legal fees instead of recovering damages.
Right-then call Ford when someone dies in a crash
Who is behind this stupidity?
Finding a liberal Judge who will “make” the appropriate law allowing the suit to move forward in 3-2-1.....
Federal law already prohibits such suits. SLAP suits can land the lawyers in hot water.
This means a person could sue a auto dealer and the auto manufacturer when a drunk driver kills someone...
then automakers are also ‘complicit’ when people use vehicles to murder other people- knife manufacturers are complicit when people die from knives- 5 gallon pail makers are ‘complicit’ when kids drown in buckets- toothbrush makers are ‘complicit’ when people choke to death accidentally- etc etc etc=-
That’s absurd of course.
Just like a car manufacturer is ‘complicit’ when a drunk driver kills.
These two should be sued instead, as they are far more complicit than the firearms manufacturer and dealer.In addition to the Florida statute, this suit also falls afoul of 15 U.S.C. §§ 7901-7903 (Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act).
Fine - then I can sue the parkland victims for infringing my rights to gun ownership.
It’s a publicity stunt.
The school board that oversees the Parkland schools is responsible for not protecting the children that the government assigned to them.
Where were the state inspections to make sure the schools were safe?
The media encourages this hogwash. And I agree with others, sue the car companies when the car is involved in a fatality, sure.
Ah, screw it. The law means whatever a Democrat-appointed judge says it means on any given day.
Nutcase in an F-150 runs over their Kids.
They Sue Ford because nobody needs a two Ton Assault Vehicle.
The shooters family must not be very wealthy.
Sue the gun maker! Wow what a novel concept. I’ll bet this has never been tried before. These people are fooling themselves about why what happened happened.
