The law allows firearm sellers, manufacturers and distributors to be sued by the state, cities or individuals for creating a ‘public nuisance’ that endangers the public’s safety and health.

A federal judge on Wednesday threw out a lawsuit by a group of gun manufacturers, distributors and retailers challenging the constitutionality of a New York law that allows the state and people affected by gun violence to sue the industry.by the National Shooting Sports Foundation and gun manufacturers, including Smith & Wesson Brands Inc and Sturm, Ruger & Co Inc, to enjoin enforcement of the statute.

Democratic former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo last July signed into law a measure that seeks to overcome legal hurdles that have largely shielded the industry from lawsuits related to gun violence. The gun industry group argued the law wrongly imposes liability on companies operating anywhere in the country that make, sell or market guns or ammunition that are misused by criminals in New York.

We are researching how 9/11 & virus 2020 were funded. We think lawsuits must be permitted in the two worst crimes against humanity & no guns were used.

Fantastic
