Gov. Newsom Signs Bill Allowing Victims of Gun Violence to Sue Gun Manufacturers

Californians affected by gun violence will soon be able to sue firearm manufacturers and sellers for the harm done by those weapons.

The change comes after California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed Assembly Bill 1594, co-authored by state Assemblymembers Phil Ting of San Francisco, Mike A. Gipson of Carson, and Chris Ward of San Diego.

"Gun manufacturers & distributors have been shielded from the mass destruction they cause for too long," Newsom said in a Twitter post that included a video of him holding up the signed bill. "Today, CA changes that. I just signed a bill that will allow victims of gun violence to sue the makers of these deadly weapons & hold them accountable."

The bill -- now a new law -- "allows individuals, local governments and the California Attorney General" to take legal action against gun manufacturers and gun sellers, according to a release about the bill.

At the federal level, the 2005 Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA) "largely shields firearm manufacturers and dealers from lawsuits when people use their products illegally, such as by shooting someone," NBC News reported in April 2021.

Well the Courts there just got slowed down to an even slower pace.

Really bad precedent by itself.

Da Hood about to be LIT!


I mean, the gun is performing it’s function.

Are they gonna pass a law where people can sue weapons manufacturers every time their family gets obliterated by a drone strike?

How many illegal obtained guns per year are used in homicides in DC, St Louis, New Orleans, Memphis, Jackson Ms?

Yeah Newsome, everyone of those guns were legally obtained by felons who committed murders this year.

What a clown

So let's say you're one of those evil evil gun manufacturers who don't care if people die. And you want your competitors sued out of business...
