Buffalo Shooting Survivors Sue Social Media & Gun Companies::Survivors and a family member of a victim of the mass shooting at Tops supermarket in Buffalo, New York are suing social media platforms, gun companies, and the shooter’s parents.
Gun makers don’t have legal immunity if they design an inherently unsafe product. If someone makes and sells a firearm that can go off when on safe that person could be sued. The PLCAA is about not being held accountable for the crimes of third parties.
And how would law suits drive prices down? You suggested if they were sued more that’d lead to more R&D. But those both are just two expenses that contribute to overhead.
Safe firearms handling should be compulsory thing in highschool even if it’s just a single 45 min class period. It’d benefit people a lot more than pre-calc.
