The Dealer will never be in court explaining they followed the law and sold the car and reported the sale to the DMV and the Tax Commissioner.
Here's the difference. To own a car in Illinois, I have to be licensed, insured, and permited by both the state and city I live in to own a car. There are hundreds of cops out there ready to pull me over if I violate even a minor traffic law like speeding or not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign. I would LOVE it if we regulated guns the way we regulate cars.
But you want gun makers to suffer through this. Not because you want justice for the victims. Not because you want to hold the guilty accountable. But because you want to bankrupt the companies with frivolous lawsuits.
I want to bankrupt them because of their irresponsibility. The thing is, cars are utilitarian. Why you do have car enthusiasts, most of us just use our cars to get places. Guns, on the other hand, are really not necessary. There's no good reason to own a gun if you aren't a soldier or a cop. But the gun industry keeps marketing even more dangerous guns, becuase they realize they are going to make more money off of THIS GUY
than they will off the guy who bought one gun once, and maybe takes it out once a year to target practice.
