Who cares what Madcow *blasts*? How many viewers does she have? 12?

She probably gets more attention with this thread than she does from actual viewers of her *show*.

“the gun makers who sold the bullets”

Makes sense.

There is such a statute and their lawyer should have known about it and told them before suit was filed. If he didn't know about it they may have a malpractice claim.

The statute is superfluous, however, because another Colorado statute provides that if any suit for personal injury is dismissed on a pretrial motion for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted the defendant may be awarded reasonable attorneys fees. These people should just pay up and not waste any more of their money on lawyers pursuing frivolous claims.

Why should they be allowed to sue the manufacturer in the first place? Absent some very special unusual odd facts?? It sounds very much like a pure nuisance suit just trying to shake ( extort)!some money from a “deeper pocket” than maybe the proper defendant may have.

Maddow is one of those people whom I full expect that one day, we’ll refresh FR, only to find that she painted a closet with her own brains, drove off a bridge, or was found dangling from a rope in the garage.

If you watch Maddow for even 5 minutes
you’ll easily see this is her modus
operandi, and it is the same for the
entire Left:

Take a story and twist it slightly to
make out of whole cloth new victims
of conservatism.

In this case, the shooter’s victims
families wanted a payout from the gun
industry, but MadCow paints THEM as
the victims, not the aggressors in
a frivolous law suit.

A judge doing something right!

After they reimburse the gun company, they should sue their lawyer, who should have warned them!

First thing I’d want to know is if any of the usual suspects in the agitation department (Brady, Bloomberg, etc) had a hand in encouraging, supporting, or in any other way pushing the parents who filed the suit.

If so, then if I was the ammo manufacturer, I’d let it be known that I’d forgive most if not all of the settlement if given an appropriate apology, with a generous helping of blame placed on the shoulders of those in the anti-gun lobby who might have encouraged them.

About time something sensible happened. Hope this idea will gravitate to other business unless negligence is proved.

Mr. Maddow can pay the legal fees.

If Maddow is so concerned, will she pay the quarter million incurred for a lawsuit that even a rookie lawyer would know couldn’t be won in court?

Can only assume the parents were on a cowardly insurance company paying them to go away.

This should be the law of the land in all cases. I’d think their stupid lawyer might have advised them of this.

If he or she did not, well, bring the atty in on the suit in a malpractice claim.

Proof positive. Guns don't kill people. People kill people.

Sorry for their loss, but my heavens, how could the gun manufacturer be held accountable?
