While the website you reference poses item #2 in an inocuous light, and
you
also ignorantly perpetuate the misunderstanding, item #2 does not refer
to
dealers simply 'breaking the law'. There have been numerous lawsuits of
late attempting to sue dealers and gun manufacturers for simply selling
their product which later is used in a crime or accident. This has been
done in an attempt to replicate some of the successes of the tobacco
lawsuits. However, for the logic of the lawsuits to be the same, gun
manufacturers would have to have claimed their products don't kill
people...

You mean like; "Guns don't kill people, people kill people"?

If they aren't trying to say that their products don't kill people, then
what are they saying?

If you've ever purchased a new firearm, you'd know that there are plenty of
warnings that come with it. My shotgun came with a instructional video
emphasizing safety. And yes, if I used my gun to kill someone, it would be
me doing the killing. Would be interesting to see that statistics of the
number of Italian over/unders on deathrow vs. just a cheap 'ole Remington
like mine.

prisoners.
