City leaders concede that gun violence in Buffalo is getting worse despite efforts by the Buffalo Police Department to curb gun violence."As of March, 2021, the number of people shot in Buffalo over the first two months of the year jumped 140% compared to the same period [in 2020]," the city's statement reads.

Chambers said city officials have been following public nuisance laws in New York"and will be considering additional defendants and causes of action as we get into discovery." There was no immediate response to the lawsuit from the gun manufacturers and retailers named as defendants.

Buffalo, New York sues gun makers, accusing industry of fueling violenceThe upstate New York city of Buffalo on Tuesday filed a lawsuit in state court accusing major gun manufacturers of fueling violence through irresponsible marketing and sales practices. When are we going to sue the politicians who let the killers out of jail and who promote fascism in state schools? We sue Cadillac for car deaths, Budweiser for DUI deaths and Democrats for the 100,000 fentanyl deaths in the last year. And, how about NY crime rate and the catch and release policy also? Does any of this contribute to gun violence? Or is it just gun manufacturers only?
