1. Good. They're well known as the go-to place for strawman purchases.

2. Good for this jury.

I hope the owners are prosecuted by the ATF.

3. Every time a gun kills or harms a human being, there should be a successful

product liability claim filed against the manufacturer.

The manufacturer knew, when it made the gun, that the gun not only could kill, but if used properly, WILL KILL

In the legal realm, this would be a slam dunk if we werent a bunch of lunatics when it comes to guns.
