3. Some folks avoid taking on powerful corporations

and sometims the grief is too much. I'm glad the families of nine victims beat these murderers.

4. It truly is a feat

go get gun companies to pay out, considering federal law makes them immune from civil liability. As you say, congrats.

9. For years, a number of DU's gun advocates have assured me that this sort of lawsuit is impossible

This is a monumental victory. Congratulations to the families and survivors.

10. That was a breakthrough

There was legislation in place that shielded gun manufacturers, from liability if their products caused injury or death. So glad they were able to find a way to make these ruthless, greedy, shameless companies bare responsibility.

11. the law is still there...

Remington wanted to avoid the Jury Trial and discovery and embarrassment... and their settlement was a good way to make it go away... probably with lots of NDA's and agreements not to publicly trash Remington.

14. Hmmm, just saw on TRMS the winners will be publishing info about how the gun corps targeted

... young men with their ads

[WarGamer]

15. Then that would have to be included in the settlement agreement.

It's ALLLLL in the agreement.
