Gain some common sense. Enforce the EXISTING laws. Gain some common sense.
At that point we can then discuss so-called common sense gun laws.
No one ever mentions that Giffords give CT an A- for their gun laws. No one ever mentions that to buy a gun in CT you must receive a permission slip from the Chief of Police in your town. So apparently the Mom got one even though she had a obviously deranged child living with her. Oh yeah and she taught him to shoot real well, thought it might improve his mental state. Oh and BTW he killed her to get the keys to the gun safe. Didn’t shoot up the high school because a good guy with a gun’s car was parked out front. So he went to an elementary school where no one was armed, even the principal.
Your point would be ....

10 year study playing violent video games as a child does not increase aggression.
Of course they also reported that climate change was man made.

Remington has offered some of the Sandy Hook families a total of 33 million dollars as settlement for their gun being found at the scene of the Sandy Hook School massacre.
They are in bankruptcy.
Probably not a good thing for gun owners.

Notice the "man card" mention--this is totally ridiculous. The case barely survived the Connecticut Supreme Court (4/3 ruling allowing it to proceed). It is the kind of case our Supreme Court of Texas would toss in a heart-beat.

Wouldn’t the plaintiffs have to prove the shooter actually viewed the “immoral and unscrupulous” ads and thus was influenced? Probably not in CT, I would guess.

The thing is, for kids who have working brains and can distinguish fantasy from reality, the effects are minimal. The issue is that for those few kids without functional brains, it becomes a way to channel violent urges into a frenzy which, for some of them, culminates in murder.

To be clear: Remington did not settle, their insurance companies settled.

I want to see the causation evidence that Adam Lanza saw all of this marketing which then caused him to murder his mother
and then murder the children at Sandy Hook.
It is my understanding the rifle was sold to his mother--not to him.
Appears to me the case is stacked on pure speculation unless I see something otherwise.
One can of course be cynical and say well some cases just gotta be tried (Kyle Rittenhouse) and some cases gotta be settled (The Sandy Hook lawsuits).
Will the floodgates now open?

If the Sandy Hook families deserve compensation from the firearms manufacturer then so does Amir Locke’s family from the manufacturer of the cop’s weapon during the no knock raid.

Ford, Chevrolet, Jack Daniel’s, Budweiser, etc… need to pay the victims of DWI’s.
This absolutely is not a good move for the gun industry. It makes me think of the Clinton locks in S&W only worse.

I thought it was a Bushmaster. Does Remington make Bushmaster?

Yes, it was Bushmaster, but at one time the company was owned by Remington. It's not easy to follow the ownership of Bushmaster.

Twelfth anniversary of this tragic event.
RIP.
In recent news a jury awarded the families of the Sandy Hook Elementary School mass shooting almost a billion dollars for I guess defamation from Info wars for saying it was staged or didn’t happen or the parents were crisis actors, not sure.
Info wars was auctioned in bankruptcy, to a comedy news company, however that was blocked as the highest bid was not taken or other irregularities, not sure.
Many questions remain unanswered. Biggest one, was the FBI involved in any way? Why would a gamer smash a video game player that did not store any information about the player, or were the computers and game units smashed by someone who didn’t understand?
It happened in the state with the strictest gun laws in the nation. The purchase of everyone of the guns used in the massacre had to be personally approved by the chief of police or the county sheriff.
