I have always thought that suing a gun manufacturer because their product resulted in someone's death is ridiculous--the gun manufacturer didn't shoot the person! Why aren't people suing auto manufacturers because a relative perished in a car wreck? Well, if they hadn't been sold the car they wouldn't have died in the wreck.... Crazy.
However, gun manufacturers do not need immunity from lawsuits, because what if they sell a defective product? It could happen to any manufacturer....
That particular catch-phrase from the NRA may be trite but it is true: guns don't kill people...people do.
