But potentially extraordinarily costly! The way the media makes a household name of the losers who become mass murderers helps recruit those who feel their only way to fame and glory is to shoot up a kindergarten and get a high body count! The firearms industry and the NRA function as enablers.

this isn't about guns, you might try another thread.

"If I was not an alcoholic, the shooting would never have happened," Jeremy Brown said in his affidavit. Brown, 34, is serving a 20- to 30-year sentence for a 2001 shooting that seriously injured a man.

The primary idea is that here you have some criminals that want shed responsibility for the crimes they committed. And they want to cash in on that, too. So they're not just criminals, they're leeches, too. Isn't it odd, though, that the two that sue the booze makers don't think to sue the gun makers which enabled their crimes no less?
