Based on that logic, surely it's a joint liability between the manufacturer of the weapon and the manufacturer of the ammunition. One is pretty much useless without the other.

Unless of course you're either a) going to club your target with the butt of an assault rifle or b) going to stand and throw small calibre rounds at targets?

Should the retailer be held accountable for the sale?

Should Ford be held accountable because someone drove one of their vehicles into a crowd in Wisconsin killing people?


Personally, I'm absolutely against the sale of weapons of this nature. However, since the sale of the device is legal. then it comes down to misuse by the individual.
