This is hot stuff!! A very heartening reminder that the drive to establish a responsible gun policy in our country is here to the finish.
A pair of important OP/ED’s to hold gun manufacturers responsible for the injuries they create has been published in the New York Times. The first “Make Gun Companies Pay Blood Money” by Lucinda M. Finley and John G. Culhane advocates a compensation fund to pay victims of gun violence financed by a tax on gun manufacturers or importers. The second “Let Shooting Victims Sue” by Robert M. Morgenthau calls for rolling back the special laws that protect gun manufacturers and others in the gun trade from liability for the damage their wares create.
