The gun manufacturers didn't sell AR15s and 100-round magazines because they were insane. They did it for the money.

Sadly, the gun manufacturers will get off Scott free--they can't even get sued civilly for their craven marketing of these items to civilians--thanks to the 2005 PLCAA law which they pushed through giving themselves immunity from such suits. And they compounded the injury, making sure we had no effective universal background check law by threatening gutless representatives with political extermination if they voted for it.
