Newtown victims are going to sue bushmaster....

[Trate D]

(Victims families)
This is about as bad as a lawsuit gets.... This isn't even a case that should make it to court. Sad thing is I am sure it will be in the headlines for months to come.

I didn't think the AR15 even made it in the school. I thought it was still in the trunk of the car.

I am not sure if that was ever proven or disproven. Seems to me another attempt to get media coverage on ar-15's and gun control.

You are correct.

I guess this means we can choose a brand of silverware makers and sue them for making people fat.

I'm on board with this.

That's the next logical step to me. I've been building my case for years, up to about 205.

Yup! The cars you crashed in, door ya stubbed your toe on, jeeps you rolled in the list could be endless. But since it's about guns it will be a big deal.

Just so I understand what to do, if I get hit by a drunk driver am I supposed to sue the car or the alcohol manufacturer?

Don't leave out the gas station he filled up in and the bar he got drunk at.

Of course, but those I know how to identify.

I find this wrong on so many levels. It's sad that other cases similar to this actually found traction and had payouts.

Yes, it is horrible and tragic, but as was stated in all your comments, ultimately it is not the fault if the manufacturer or retailer. The blame can be placed entirely on the killer, Adam Lanza, and his mother, Nancy. I find it infuriating that the nation is shifting toward zero personal accountability. The mother made poor choices that lead to her son making even more reprehensible ones.

The gun in the trunk was not an AR-15... look at the way he clears the chamber, not a Bushmaster imo

Very lame lawsuit, very lame. Ridiculous in fact.

Funny you say this, we were having a discussion about this silliness at work, and a co-worker brought up the same analogy

I completely forgot about that. The media jumped to "ar-15" so fast that it stuck.
