We should hold gun manufacturers & sellers accountable for what buyers do with weapons

[Mufaddal]

There has been a lot of discussion about this subject during the current primary cycle, and I think it's an important discussion to have. So here's a proposition: as Hillary Clinton has said, we should hold gun manufacturers and sellers accountable for what is done with their weapons.

Let's start by holding Hillary Clinton accountable, who arranged weapons deals of $29 billion worth of advanced fighter jets with Saudi Arabia (after that country donated to the Clinton Foundation while she was SOS, no less). Those weapons are now being used in airstrikes to massacre civilians in Yemen.

Likewise, we should start by holding Boeing, who made those fighter jets, accountable.

While we're at it, we should hold "America's Gun King," Walmart--the nation's largest gun dealer--accountable. And we should hold Hillary Clinton accountable for serving on their board while they sold thousands of those guns, and for taking $353,000 in gun-tainted cash from Alice Walton for her 2016 campaign.

It's time to bring the gun profiteers to account.

1. Good one! LOL!

I like your reasoning. It definitely takes Hillary's very own logic to the next level.

[msongs]

2. and bernie sanders who consistently votes for war funding and planes like the F-35 which is

conveniently going to be stationed in...wait for it...Vermont lol

3. Neither of which constitute weapons sales to known human rights abusers and war criminals

But nice try.

6. They sure like to compare

apples to mass murder don't they?

[Gwhittey]

9. Well that could be debated

It does sell to the US.

11. $¯|_(ツ)_/¯$

You said it, not me!

(Of course, I still think war crimes and crimes against humanity charges should be brought against the Bush I, Clinton, and Bush II administrations over Iraq)

5. Not even comparable.

4. While we are at it GM and Ford should be held accountable for drunk drivers right?

[Mufaddal]

7. And alcohol sellers and manufacturers, it would seem

[awake]

10. True

As well as the the local food store that sold the small plastic bags that crack dealers use when they sell crack

[Mufaddal]

12. And the baking soda manufacturers

whose product is also used in making crack. Big Baking has escaped justice for far too long.

13. I hit my thumb with a hammer

I'm suing Stanley

[PonyUp]

16. Should have used a Craftsman hammer. They have deeper pockets. nt

8. exactly thank you

[WDIM]

14. We should allow lawsuits of all weapons manufacturers

Especially the manufacturers of cluster bombs and drones.

Everytime a civilians is injured or killed by their machines of mass murder the families should be able to sue the people who made it possible including those who voted to authorize this mass murder.

15. it's a nonissue now: the NRA's fundraisers are giving her money
