    1. Your comment makes so much sense to me because the gun walked in and opened fire by itself. Gun violence is caused by a human pulling the trigger.

  1. If you sue them and all other arms
    manufacturers out of business, who will make arms for the military? Or is that part of your goal so the Chinese and Russian armies, who don’t have to worry about lawsuits, can march right in unfettered

  2. We do not need military assault weapons on our streets where mentally ill young men (they are all sick young men-no women- who think killing strangers will somehow help) can and do kill parade attendees, movie goers, concert attendees, grocery shoppers, school teachers and school children. Enough!! The worry about a defenseless military is to indulge in maximum ignorance. There are several businesses that make a good profit from our military, which is why President Eisenhower warned about the military-industrial complex upon his departure from office. Senior officers in the military receive training about how to make money after retirement, from consulting gigs, board seats, tv commentator jobs and more. That complex is alive and well in this country. Those who try to take advantage of those sick young men for profit are the real un-Americans.

  3. Gary, you are part of the “do nothing” crowd. Raise Q after Q until nothing gets done. We don’t need a definition for you and other nay-sayers to pick at. Let’s start by banning the guns used in killings in America by sick young men.
