Sniper Victims' Families Sue Gun Manufacturer and Gun Shop

MY OPINION: The gun shop deserves everything it gets. We complain about enforcing existing laws; well, this guy by law shouldn't have been able to purchase that rifle. They broke the law by selling it to him, so stick it to 'em. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Prior government audits of the gun store revealed hundreds of missing guns.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>So why was he still in business?

As for suing the gun manufacturer? Puh-leeeez.

The lawsuit should be aimed towards the Gunshop owner and the ATF.

While they are at it they should go after their first grade teachers, priest's
buy scout leader, mother.

What a crock.
guns don't kill people.
people kill people.
