Going to be lucky to have a 2nd after this moron is finished. Thanks again all who voted to have our rights tossed in the dumpster. Joe Biden Gun Control Proposal Could Bankrupt Firearms Industry
Former Vice President Joe Biden’s plan to do away with the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA) could bankrupt the entire firearms industry. President George W. Bush signed the PLCAA into law in 2005 as a way of protecting firearms manufacturers from frivolous lawsuits. But Biden campaigned on opening up firearm manufacturers to suits tied to the criminal misuse of the products they make. On February 7, 2020, Breitbart News reported Biden telling a New Hampshire audience it was a “mistake” to give “gun manufacturers … a loophole that does not allow them to be sued for the carnage they are creating.” He added, “The first thing I’m going to do as president is work to get rid of that, and it’s going to be hard.” On February 24, 2020, Breitbart News reported that Biden looked into the camera during a South Carolina speech, called out gun manufacturers, and said, “I’m going to take you down.” The PLCAA shields gun manufacturers from lawsuits in situations where the guns in question were legally made and legally sold. Biden wants those protections eliminated. During an October 2019 gun control forum in Las Vegas Biden claimed opening gun makers up to lawsuits would result in “change overnight.” The Daily Caller spoke with Missouri self-defense lawyer and firearms trainer Kevin Jamison about Biden’s plans, and he made clear that firearms manufacturers would enter a financial tailspin if Biden has his way. Jamison said, “The guys pushing these lawsuits, they don’t care if they win. They care if they can force these companies to hemorrhage money. They are in the business of putting gun companies out of business.” Jamison added, “If they destroy enough companies or force them to adopt their rules of procedure then there will be no place to buy guns and that’s what they’re looking for. They want to make it as expensive to own a gun as humanly possible — and as difficult. If they get even part of their wish list, they won.” It must be noted that other gun control measures Biden has proposed would put financial pressure on gun owners. In fact, his taxation plans for AR-15s, AK-47s, and “high capacity” magazines — a $200 tax on each such privately owned rifle and a $200 tax on every privately owned “high capacity” magazine — could cost gun owners $34 billion.

lol
Are you forum liberals starting to worry at all? they don't care a whit except for themselves. Yup. I know of one (shall remain nameless) who has stated that he wants free health care so he doesn't have to pay for his sons medical bills. Meanwhile, he's a "lawyer" (probably a terrible one) and has plenty of money. Yet he expects all of us to pay for his families bills. This is the mentality we are dealing with here folks. People that care about no one but themselves yet try to pawn it off as caring for everyone. Sick, sick people. They should open up the state hospitals and give them all a room. They are not capable of living in a free society.

Does that mean if your hit by a drunk without asserts or insurance you can sue the automobile manufacturer?

Apparently, using this mentality, you can sue the car manufacture regardless of insurance, You can sue any knife manufacture for a stabbing, Ralphy could sue for shooting his eye out and you could sue the forest for cutting the "Y" branch out of a tree to make the sling shot.

The list could go on and on. What are they going to do to that bad guy that steals a gun and get caught with it, make him pay a tax for stealing the gun. What a joke. JMO

you've all got it wrong...there will be no commonsense additions to the gun co. liability...just THEM.
Thanks, James, etc... Thanking Jim for the fact that Alaska voted a straight Republican ticket seems odd. His vote did nothing. As did yours in PA.
Who is John Galt?

When the time comes, I am positive James will represent us, pro bono! from his posts, I don't think I'd WANT him to represent me. his "logic" is suspect, at best. Be like having the fox watch your hen house.
