Well? It’s only Connecticut at this time but does this potentially open the Pandora’s box??

Box has been open for awhile. Most shootings result in lawsuits, most are tossed via PLCAA. I think one was successful as the shop was gross negligent as law allowed.
This will go back to Federal Court where it will be tossed, since there is zip negligence. For example this quote:
"Nicole Hockley said Remington and other gunmakers need to stop gearing their advertising toward troubled young men."
Well keep in mind Adam Lanza did not buy the weapon, he stole it from his mother whom he murdered. So how exactly are they going to show Remington marketed the gun to a killer when it was actually bought by his law-abiding mother?

One more log on the fire I suppose. Very true, Lanza didn’t buy the weapon, it was stolen.

I still think that idiot mother of his could have/should have kept weapons from this little piece of crap. She knew he was a nutjob.

Renegade has it right. Indeed God rest her soul but his mother was the problem. If she had admitted how troubled he was (to herself) then this tragedy would never have happened.

Let's use the First Amendment to protect the Second so we can avoid using the Second to protect the First.

I'm confused. I had thought this BS had been attempted many times and put to rest by SCOTUS a while ago no?

To the Left it's only "settled law" when it's settled THEIR way. Anything else is open to re-litigation at any time...Originally Posted by WillBrink
You really have to ask why Conservatives have guns? Because Liberals block freeways, burn cities, throw Molotov cocktails, loot, turn over cop cars, and think this behavior is Socially Acceptable.

If SCOTUS considers it settled law, where does that leave them? Unless they have an angle they can convince SCOTUS to take it up (doubtful is my guess) this seems more political statement of some kind. It is CT, and they really don't give a damn about the Const.

That's only Settled Law until they can get another Leftist justice or two whether by hook (Nom/Confirm in their next administration) or by crook (encouraging Roberts and Kavanaugh's inner Earl Warren and David Souter). These people are totally convinced of the inevitability of their cause and are willing to slog through as much of a Long March as it takes--and I don't think we all really know how close they came to Finishing the Job on a century-plus of work in 2016.
I know these people, I grew up among them, was educated among their children and was being groomed from an early age to JOIN them.

I think that’s pretty much the defining nature of liberalism/progressiveism.
