Exclamation Judge rules...lawsuit against gun maker can go forward
Quote:
A lawsuit can go forward against the maker of the rifle used in the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings, a judge ruled Thursday.

Superior Court Judge Barbara Bellis said that a 2005 federal law protecting gun-makers from lawsuits does not prevent lawyers for the victims' families from arguing that the semi-automatic rifle is a military weapon and should not have been sold to civilians.

Reason #1 why ANY Republican is better than a Democrap in the upcoming election. I have my issues with The Donald, but I'll hold my nose and pull the lever for him in a heartbeat to keep the Hildebeast out of the White House.

The Democraps will use the judiciary to accomplish their anti-gun agenda, and the longer they are appointing Federal judges, the worse things will get. We could lose up to 4 Supremes in the next 4 years to retirement or death by natural causes.

That's BS, I want to start seeing auto makers and alcohol producers get the same treatment when somebody uses their products and kills someone.

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

This is more fallout from the rabid liberalism that infects the government and courts. It's crap.

When has that ever stopped them?

Congress also passed the "Defense of Marriage Act".
