It's been a recent issue in US Democratic debates regarding mass shootings. Can anyone explain to me one good reason why gun manufacturers (death salesmen) shouldn't be sued when their weapon is used in a mass shooting?

For the same reason why baseball bat manufacturers shouldn't be sued when their bats are used to kill people? Or butcher knife manufacturers? Or literally anything?

"Someone used a rope your company made to hang themselves! Bastards! Death merchants! How could you let this happen? If you don't make your ropes suicide proof, we'll sue you!"

Because you need to be at fault in the eyes of the law to be sued, obviously, and selling legal products in America isn't a crime.

Hmm I wonder who else is selling death legally ...

Let's start with the easy ones
Cigarettes
Alcohol
Fast Food
Energy Drinks

Damn, it looks like lawyers are going to be pretty happy with all the new cases that this would open up

I personally feel like, if someone is some how convinced that gun manufactures should be sued for doing legal business, then there is no way to convince them otherwise. The radical left is just that, radically left. No need to explain anything, you simply will not change your mind and arguments are moot.

imho.

I'm a hobby blacksmith. Should I be sued for making knives because they could potentially injure/kill people (I hope they don't)? Answer: no.
