Guns > Weekly Gun Nuttery
The Carnival of Cordite is up, with coverage of the Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, which among other things protects gunmakers from liability when their wares are used by criminals. In the last few decades anti-gun forces have used civil suits to undermine U.S. gunmakers, trying to make them responsible for criminal acts committed with their legal products. That made about as much sense as suing Ford for making getaway cars, or suing the Louisville Slugger company when someone gets hit with a baseball bat. Good on Congress for ending that foolishness.
Uncle notes that the act specifically recognizes the right to keep and bear arms as an individual right, not as the right of a group or national guard.
You can get the weekly check on the bias at Jeff Soyer's, whose blog just turned three today. Congrats, Jeff.
