15. Emotion Based Lawsuits? Sandy Hook families push to reinstate lawsuit against gun manufacturer

You suggest that people are making up the deaths of their children. The reason why there are lawsuits are not because people are having a mood swing. The lawsuits are being filed because peoples' loved ones have died.

Nearly five years after 26 people were gunned down in a Connecticut elementary school, one Sandy Hook father says the victims' families have "not lost one ounce of confidence" in their case and they hope to reinstate their lawsuit against the parent company of the AR-15 used in the attack.

Sandy Hook families argued to Connecticut's highest court today to reinstate their lawsuit against Remington Outdoor Co. -- the parent company of the manufacturer of the AR-15 military assault weapon used in the December 2012 elementary school massacre in Newtown.

Adam Lanza, 20, shot and killed his mother before going to the Sandy Hook Elementary School, where he used an AR-15 to gun down 20 first-graders and six educators, before killing himself.

The families of nine victims who were killed and one teacher who survived are part of the lawsuit which argues that Remington, the parent company of the manufacturer, Bushmaster, knowingly marketed a military weapon to civilians.
