I've got a relative that was hit by a car.

Time to sue the auto manufacturer.

Now we've got legal precedent.




EDIT: A settlement does not create precedent. Oh well....we see where things are going.

Can you hear that sound?

That's the sound of the death knell for an entire industry.

No legal precedent was set. They settled because they didn't want to go to trial. It's probably the insurance companies paying out and their lawyers probably had a say in the decision to settle. A settlement means no one "wins" because no court case happens. The suing parties were told, "here's a bucket of money, now go away and shut your mouth."

You know how Liberals decide not to take some court cases they lose up to appeal because the appellate court might rule against them and lead to setting precedent against them in a higher court? That's probably one of Remington's considerations. If they lost, it would have been a terrible precedent set, the court case probably would have been tremendously expensive, and if they lost, they probably would've had to pay more.

I'm sure non-disclosure clause as well...

You're overweight... Sue every single supplier of food you consume! Sue the softdrink manufacturer for their oversized (64oz) containers that promote consumption!

You can now happily sue the tobacco manufacturers!

Sue auto manufacturers for that busted knuckle you got while changing your oil! Hell... Sue them because even after 200k miles your engine died! Let's not even talk about suing them for allowing you to speed beyond posted limits...

Sue your parents because you can't hack it in the real world...

Sue Hollywood because they only produce shit these days...

Sue fucking China over Covid, real or not!

Sue, sue, sue ... And SUE!!! You'll hit something if you just sue in our litigious society! Like what the fuck over! What is Remington really fucking thinking here... And this is why lawyers ADVISE but they don't get to make decisions!!!

They should have used every fucking dollar they had fighting this shit... People would've bought their stuff to help fight with profits... Now they should just quietly fade away... Cya'

wait for a drunk driver to kill someone, that family just became a multi-millionaires from the bar, the alcohol, the car manufacture, the DOT ( for not putting up safety barrier) the people that made the container the alcohol came in

New cars are going to mandated to have alcohol interlock devices installed as required safety equipment under Biden. Let’s go Brandon!

On the contrary of pussy….
Ironically, the rifle in question was a “Bushy”
So why are they suing Remington? Lol!

Because their pussies hurt.

 

[Grimscale]

Nope they have "immunity"

So did the firearms industry (supposedly...according to the lying Dems).

If you get enough people together to sue, it's a sure bet the Dems will offer a bucket load of cash to try to prevent their friend's "immunity" from being ruled unConstitutional in a Court.

now, its useless, thanx Remington

It was an obscure state law that allowed this from what the news said. We have it in NYS.

 

[Saltwater60]

The problem with the case is first off the shooter didn’t select the gun his mother did. There is no one in their right mind that would have said guilty or negligent on this case. This was only allowed to go forward because how horrific the crime was. Insurance companies settled this and will pay for it for whatever reason. Also they claim video games have an effect on this too so will they sue video game makers? Why haven’t they done this?

 

[MuttCat]

As I understand it, Remington is defunct. It was the insurers that settled. Bad decision. Had it gone to court, it is reasonable to expect that the plaintiffs would have lost.
