  Today the Connecticut supreme court ruled that the Sandy Hook survivors could proceed in a lawsuit against Remington as the manufacturer of the firearm used by the nut responsible. This is a very dangerous decision because, it now opens gun manufacturers to a tsunami of lawsuits designed to put them out of business. This  is  an  end run around  the  2A. 
  Every oppressive,  authoritarian government in history confiscates its citizens guns. This assault on one section of the country against another is going to have serious consequences because gun lovers like myself ain't gonna just sit by and let it happen. It is the greatest rift in the country since the war to prevent Southern Independence.
