NY AG James: ‘We Need to Follow’ CA Gov’s Lead to Allow Citizens to Sue Gun Sellers, Makers
breitbart ^ | 14 Dec 2021 | PAM KEY

Posted on 12/16/2021 8:09:09 AM PST by MarvinStinson

New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) said Tuesday on ABC’s “The View” that she was looking into following Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D-CA) recent proposal to allow private citizens to sue manufacturers and distributors of assault weapons.

Co-host Sarah Haines said, “Last the Supreme Court refused to block a Texas law that allows everyday citizens to sue abortion providers. Then California Governor Newsom wants to take that law and flip it and allow citizens in his state to sue assault weapon and ghost gun providers. Would you do something like this? is it an effective legal strategy?”

AD James said, “The answer is yes. When I heard about that, I said to my team we need to follow his lead. The reason why that is is because gun manufacturers and gun distributors in this country are immunized. No liability whatsoever. They’re the only industry that is protected in this country, and given the carnage and given the fact that this is the ninth anniversary of Sandy Hook, I am sick and tired of prayers and individuals whose hearts go out to all of those who have lost lives. We can do something about it. What we need to do is hold these gun manufacturers and these gun distributors liable.”

She added, “We are reviewing it and talking to California, and so this is a first. Yes, The Office of Attorney General Letitia James is looking at that model, and I congratulate Governor Newsom.”

What part of FEDERAL immunity does this twit not understand? You accept it for the jab producers now, accept it for gun manufacturers - or don’t. You won’t win.

I believe we should disbar any government lawyer who supports a law that is eventually ruled unconstitutional. If they aren’t a lawyer, they should be immediately dismissed and forever ruled ineligible for any government position, elected or salaried, at ANY level.

You need to GFYS and then, after that GFYS again. How about people who suffered adverse affects sue Pfizer and Moderna. That sounds like a consumer products liability case. Hidden defect that caused harm to its users? Check. Connection with interstate commerce? Check. There you are.

“sue manufacturers and distributors of assault weapons.”

Full auto weapons are only available to the military and police. Semi-auto weapons have been in general use for over a hundred years. They are not “assault weapons” just because you decide to redefine them as such.

Maybe we should allow Citizens to sue the producers of "whatever" is made in the state of New York.

We can start with entities such as NBC for being destructive producers of propaganda and misinformation.

Leftists should know that their best defense is to mind their own business and to let us mind ours.
