Mass shooting victims can sue gun manufacturer!

At the end of the day I think the first person to blame is the mother. She "legally" owned the firearm but allowed it to fall into the hands of her son (who didn't legally own it). I know American laws are different and they don't have to lock guns up the way we do but common sense would say its a good idea when you have kids in the house!
The problem there is the lawyers will tell the families that there is no point in trying to sue her because she doesn't have any money! So they went for the next rich person/company they could find...
As others have said what about car makers? There were a number of vans and lorries used to run over pedestrians in attacks in Europe over the last couple of years. Vans and lorries are much more deadly than a car in the same way that a semi auto "assault" rifle is more deadly than a single shot wooden rifle!

Surely when it gets to court they must realise this and throw it out???

Can't wait till they sue those operating Gun Free Zones!

As for games etc being the cause - that's just tripe.

We played games using toy guns when we wer kids - school / "mass" shootings ZILCH! Society has gone down the pan and you will find prescribed medication invoved with many of those so called "mass shooters"...

Speaking of gun free zones, I am shocked that there has just been a shooting in a Walmart. The reason this is so shocking is they banned open carry in Walmarts. There has even been a video of a chap who popped in for some shopping being confronted by police and forced to sign a piece of paper saying he was banned from all Walmarts as he was open carrying. There cannot have been any guns in the store as they were banned. How could it happen? It is almost like the nutt jobs and criminals ignore laws or something...
