It's amazing how money can "comfort" those that lost their childern. The world is full of greedy people that always want to point the finger at someone else, so that they can fatten their bank accounts.
The ones that will get rich? The lawyers.

If there's anybody in this that has any fault, it's Nancy Lanza for allowing her nutcase son to be able to access her firearms.
Had she properly stored them, simply killing her wouldn't have allowed him access to them.
Yet I don't hear much on anybody suing her estate for damages.
Which shows me that these lawsuits are mostly just frivolous "deep pockets" lawsuits with no merit.

I think she is partially to blame, yes, but the guns could have been in a locked safe and Adam could have found the key after killing her.
I'm sure she had some idea her son would kill her, steal her guns and go shoot a bunch of other people. Then she just ignored it and let it all happen.If there's anybody in this that has any fault, it's Nancy Lanza for allowing her nutcase son to be able to access her firearms.

You've got a real ax to grind. Grudge from your LSAT score keep you out of law school?
Round 1 goes to Remington... Basically "The case moved one step closer to a possible dismissal yesterdays as lawyers for Remington won the argument to move the case to a more palatable federal court" since "The 2nd Circuit has previously refused to hold gun manufacturers liable or permit lawsuits against gun manufacturers for injuries caused by third parties"

Okay. Can anyone simplify for me
Basically, they say that LARGE CAPACITY magazines, and
"assault weapons", are NOT protected under the second "A" .....
I still don't understand what a large capacity magazine is .....
I use STANDARD ISSUE magazines .....

Yes, US v Miller 307 U.S. 174 (1939) held that the second amendment explicitly protected weapon suitable for military use by the individual. It is mis-cited in this garbage opinion on page 21. The essential holding in Miller was that because the defendant never entered any evidence that short-barreled shotgun's were suitable for military use, they would not find them to fall within the second amendment. It made no such rule in about machine guns or anything of the like.I thought the Supreme Court ruled years ago that military weapons were specifically protected by the 2nd amendment. They even made it a determining factor in a case, saying because the weapon in the case was not military related, that it was NOT protected.
Or is this a case in them wanting cake, and also to eat it?
