guns are.

Guns are manufactured to do two things, shoot for fun, shoot to kill.

Regardless of the circumstances when a gun is used to kill, that is the purpose of the product.

They like to use alcohol also, again, DUMB.

Alcohol is not made to kill people, it does kill people but that is not the purpose of the product.

Product liability lawsuits work relatively simply, or should.

The reason gun manufacturers and sellers etal need special laws to protect them, as I have said before, is without those laws they would rightfully be sued repeatedly, successfully for their negligence.
