Families of the Uvalde victims have filed a lawsuit against Daniel Defense, and Activision over what they claim was their role in promoting the gun used in the shooting.
Focusing on AR-15 is ridiculous. They’ll use what ever the best thing is they have access to.
No, because an AR-15 was used in this specific case, and these specific companies were involved in making and aggressively marketing this specific gun to the specific person who used it to kill these people.
This isn’t a “Marilyn Manson/video games/anything-but-guns is the real reason” type argument.
These specific companies’ obviously dangerous practice of marketing guns to teenaged boys contributed to the events at Uvalde, or so the suit alleges.
It’s an argument worth hearing the details of before judging.

Definitely, the gun makers should be held responsible. Their incessant lobbying is part of the problem.
Stupid take. No merit.
