Title: Nebraska should get in on this

Not sure if this is the proper forum section but here goes:

It's amazing that this has been allowed to happen and needs major push back. Nebraska should join the other states that are opposing this nonsense. It's too bad that some people abuse firearms that result in these lawsuits that have nothing to do with the manufacturer. It still saddens me that so many were killed - especially children. But place blame on the responsible person(s) that pulled the trigger - not the rest of us, the majority that are law abiding citizens, and especially not the firearms manufacturers.

There was a thread for this topic a while back, not sure if we can add these posts to it?

Remington lawsuit allowed to proceed in CT


From the article:
Erich Pratt, senior vice president of GOA said, “GOA and our two million members and supporters urge the Supreme Court to take up this case. Just as we don’t punish car manufacturers for the deeds of a drunk driver, we shouldn’t punish a firearm manufacturer for the deeds of a madman. Furthermore, firearms are overwhelmingly used for good — as tools to save lives.”

GOA was joined in this brief by its legal arm, Gun Owners Foundation (GOF), The Heller Foundation, and a number of other pro-gun organizations.
