If private parties are to be allowed to collect fines from people exercising a Constitutional right, I see no reasoned argument that can discern one right from another.

Allow people who are the survivors of persons who committed suicide with guns to sue the gun store on grounds the clerk SHOULD have been able to tell the guy was going to use the gun to kill himself.

True story: My niece is still working on piecing together the reasons her husband committed suicide, so one of the places she went was to the gun store he went in the last four hours of his life, and talked to the clerk. "Yeah, he seemed really depressed." "And you sold him the gun anyway?" Turns out this gun store (which I won't name here) has a policy that the only time a clerk can refuse sale of a gun to a customer with the funds to pay for it is if the NICS sends a "deny sale" message. Making a judgment call is a termination offense.
