21. Reread my post.

I and Bernie support gun control. The reason he voted against holding the gun maker's liable is because the laws didn't support it then. And until the gun laws change, they STILL don't. Understand this one thing, neither Bernie nor I are against gun control. Can I make that any clearer?!

Guns manufacturers sell extremely dangerous products and should be held to a higher standard.	DCBob	Oct 2015	#17
They sell them because our current law allows it.	floriduck	Oct 2015	#19
Yes, but I think the debate is about changing some laws to help stop the carnage.	DCBob	Oct 2015	#20

Do you support changing the laws to make gun manufacturers liable for their products?	DCBob	Oct 2015	#22
They are	ibegurpard	Oct 2015	#23
The laws need to be stiffened.	DCBob	Oct 2015	#24

Of course you cant "eliminate the possibility of guns being used for nefarious purposes".	DCBob	Oct 2015	#38
Then please explain why the maker of a totally legal product should be sued for use of that product	Armstead	Oct 2015	#39
My argument is that the gun manufacturers should bear much more responsibility for their products..	DCBob	Oct 2015	#41
