Petra wants gunmakers liable Date sent: Sat, 18 Aug 2001 06:24:25 -0700 To: alamar@cctimes.com From: "M. Hoff" <mhoff@slctnet.com> Subject: Perata wants gunmakers liable in lawsuits You wrote: "Navegar boasted in advertisements that the gun had resistance to fingerprints and a high volume of firepower -- two attributes that plaintiffs said indicated the company was marketing the weapon for criminal activity." I'd like to see a copy of that ad. As far as "high volume of firepower" goes wouldn't that work to the advantage of a person defending himself against a mob, such as in a riot or after a natural disaster such as a hurricane? Wouldn't that be legitimate self-defense activity? The government buys firearms on the basis of their putting out a "high volume of firepower", does that make the government a criminal organization?
