Generated by TLDR This:
CNN — Victims of a mass shooting that claimed the lives of seven people and injured dozens at a July 4 parade in Illinois have filed lawsuits against a gun manufacturer, the accused shooter and the shooter’s father, court documents show.
“The mass shooting at Highland Park’s Fourth of July Parade was the foreseeable and entirely preventable result of a chain of events initiated by Smith & Wesson,” the lawsuits state.
In addition to the seven victims who were killed, dozens of others were injured.
WLS/Pool The accused shooter’s father, Robert Crimo Jr., was also named in the lawsuits for his role in sponsoring his son’s gun permit, which allowed his son to purchase firearms before he turned 21, including the gun he allegedly used in the shooting.
CNN has reached out to all named defendants for their comment on the lawsuits.
After the shooting, he left the roof and blended in with the fleeing crowd, Lake County Major Crime Task Force spokesperson Chris Covelli said.

How are these people getting away with suing and winning against gun manufacturers? is there any other product that if misused as a murder weapon you can sue the manufacturer?

This is how our society has decided to make rules. Instead of passing a law banning something like temperance chads and stacies did with prohibition, you just get the public to vaguely feel bad about something and then turn the lawyers loose for bullshit lawsuits. There's billions of dollars to be made doing this. Just look at the recent vape pen moral panic. Or the Roundup bullshit, the black mold bullshit, the bullshit about asbestos in places where nobody was harmed, the breast implant bullshit...

Who's won on this shit? The only case I can recall is Sandy Hook and Remington. And in that case Remington was already failing and settled because they couldn't afford to fight.

Bushmaster was hit hard but it worked out because the employees took back over the assets of the company and reformed it into a local manufacturer of ARs again called Windham Weaponry. Some would say that the current quality of receivers is better than post buyout-pre ((sandy hook)) lawsuit bushmaster

It just legal hustle and bustling. Lawyers are the true winners there and insurance companies pays for it. Then the industry and insurance companies lobbies for stronger judicial protections against frivolous legal lawsuits.

Patriots have been trying to make this illegal for a long time but it’s still in the courts, it’s illegal in at least one appellate court district though. The ((grifters)) however are trying to do this in their scheming attempts to disarm the population by suing manufacturers out of existence

Get fricked grifters
S&w might be gay and boring now thanks to Hillary holes but they still make good some of the best .357 revolvers
I hope those r-slur Hoggists fail, same with the grifters going after Daniel defense. DD might be expensive shit but it’s a small company that does a lot of cool stuff like collab with tactical hero Larry Vickers and the WWSD project. They basically use a lot of their earnings to promote fun, marksmanship and cool experimental stuff for firearms enthusiasts
