The majority of the high court agreed with most of the lower court’s ruling and dismissed most of the lawsuit’s allegations, but allowed a wrongful marketing claim to proceed. Connecticut’s child advocate said Lanza’s severe and deteriorating mental health problems, his preoccupation with violence and access to his mother’s legal weapons “proved a recipe for mass murder.”

I wish instead that a policitian with a set of balls and a sense of ethics (and perhaps political suicide) could stand up to change their laws instead.
The aim is to get these weapons away. How to accomplish this? Not many politicians that will endorse this because it’s career suicide. The threat of lawsuits might convince the gunmakers to stop making assault-style weapons. Win-win. No politician has to risk his/her job.
