(9,214 posts)manufacturers for negligence when none was apparent. Can you imagine the uproar if car manufacturers could be sued because their products were used in an illegal way? Getaway car in a robbery, hit and run or even just an accident caused by poor road conditions. My god what about the people that are in charge of the road conditions? Could they be liable? Where would it have stopped if not at this law? We would no longer have car manufacturers in this Country. If the practice of trying to sue gun manufacturers out of business hadn't been stopped where would our armed forces acquire their small weapons, Russia, China? It boggles the mind when courts would even consider allowing a person to sue a corporation for making a well functioning product. I cut myself with a perfectly good, sharp knife yesterday while cutting onions, better check the brand of knife, wasn't much of a cut but there may be a few bucks in it for me.
I'm anti gun but common sense tells us that the problem is not with a poorly made product. Manufacturers shouldn't be held liable for making a good product. Good for Bernie to practice common sense.
As you support suing gun manufacturers for making good products who else would you support suing for making non-defective products? Where would your cut off be.
