Headline: Sandy Hook Parents win settlement in lawsuits against Remington Arms. One reader commented:
“This means that every automobile manufacturer in the U. S. is liable for all the injuries and deaths they “cause.””
My response:
Cars are not designed to kill people. In fact, they are designed in many ways to save lives in case they are misused – seat belts, airbags, crumple zones, etc. And yet — and yet, we willingly require a license and insurance to drive one.
Many who purchase firearms state their reason is self-protection. Not from cougars, or grizzlies, but from…other people.
Guns are designed to kill people. And yet — and yet, a minority of those in this great country fear requiring a license or insurance to possess them.
