- A gun jamming doesn't make it point at someone's head and fire. -- nm - Ender Nov 11, 06:07 8
  - an 8-year-old trying and failing to control the recoil from an uzi, though... - znufrii Nov 11, 06:08 7
    - Sure, but that's not the gun's fault. -- nm - Ender Nov 11, 06:09 6
      - If the gun was defective, it could have been a contributing factor. - ty97 Nov 11, 06:12 4
        
        i agree. if a malfunctioning gun had recoiled and an 18 year old had died, people might see it differently. -- nm - Andie Nov 11, 06:18 3
        
        It looks like they're just suing everyone. Standard operating procedure. - Inigo Nov 11, 06:23 2
        
        Agreed that is SOP. I'm surprised they aren't suing the venue where the show was held. -- nm - ty97 Nov 11, 07:16

      - true, it was just doing what it is supposed to. nothing wrong with that. -- nm - znufrii Nov 11, 06:10
- Handing any 8 year old a loaded Uzi is putting them in extreme danger. - Inigo Nov 11, 06:07 1
