NASHVILLE, Tenn. — In the wake of a deadly school shooting last month, Republican lawmakers in Tennessee awarded final passage Tuesday to a proposal that would further protect gun and ammunition dealers, manufacturers and sellers against lawsuits.
Democratic Sen. London Lamar, a Memphis lawmaker, said it’s “disrespectful timing” to push through protections for gun companies while people continue to march at the Capitol for gun control changes. The civil liabilities bill passed just ahead of a protest in which people formed a human chain through Nashville to the Capitol in support of gun control measures.
“This is just to try to help businesses in this state that have chosen to come here, to give them a little civil liability,” Hensley said.
Gun manufacturers are not responsible for what people do with their product. It's supply and demand. People demand them, so the companies supply them.
It makes sense! Shield automakers from liability for drivers under the influence ,shield doctors from Malpractice for killing people,BLM from killing ,destroying cities and private businesses. Because their sad
Is that like 'shielding' car companies when drunk drivers kill people? 🤔 The Democratic lawmakers are full of crap
You mean like the Democrats and all the news media have shielded Biden and his crime family from being investigated and indicted for raping and raking off tens of millions of dollars all over the world exploiting Biden’s political power? U mean blocking like that?
The political lobby movement in the US needs a complete overhaul. The NRA should not have this amount of power.
What's new about this? This is their (GOP) normal modus operandi.
