Nancy Lanza didn t properly wow secure her weapons, that is a given, and she paid the price for that

The Connecticut wow Post reports lawsuits contend Nancy Lanza failed to properly secure the rifle her troubled adult son, Adam Lanza, used to kill 20 children and six educators at Sandy Hook Elementary School in December 2012.
As we have previously stated, AR -15 combat rifles designed to inflict mass causalities have no business being marketed and sold to civilians like Nancy Lanza, said Josh Koskoff of the law firm Koskoff, Koskoff and Bieder in Bridgeport, CT, who represents eight of the claimants, and whose firm has filed suit against Bushmaster and other defendants for the negligent entrustment of the AR-15 to the general population wow according to a press release from the firm.

Let wow me say this as nicely as I can; I do realize that were talking about many dead children here, and I don t intend to denigrate those children or the adults that were killed when an INSANE little piece of garbage went OFF and killed them all, so here goes.
Nancy Lanza did not murder these people, the weapons that she legally owned did not murder these people, an insane juvenile, Nancy Lanza s son, Adam Lanza murdered the victims of Sandy Hook with weapons he basically STOLE from his mother.
I do not want to start a firestorm about which weapons or the number of rounds Adam Lanza used in his heinous wow spree of violence, that is, as far as I am concerned, irrelevant to the point of the original story that inspired this post and to the TRUE intent of the civil suit itself.
One reason for this is that unlike in the military and law enforcement, there is no oversight of civilian use and storage of these weapons. Studies have repeatedly shown that, unfortunately, wow only about 50 percent of gun owners store their weapons properly. Bushmaster knows this but continues to sell AR-15s to the public anyway, Koskoff said.
Whether Bushmaster sells rifles to the public or not is not a legitimate part of this story my friends, it is simply a *back door* attack on an individual weapon.The rifles that are made and sold by Bushmaster didn t get up one morning and decide to go out and commit mass murder.
Nancy Lanza didn t properly wow secure her weapons, that is a given, and she paid the price for that grievous error, but Adam Lanza was as nutty as a fruit cake, and that may not be the fault of Nancy Lanza but she should have been aware of Adam Lanza’s instability, and as such, yes, I agree that the guns should have been effectively secured.
If these parents filing suit against Nancy Lanza s estate want to be genuine in their own actions perhaps they need to spend the money that they most likely will receive in the effort to EDUCATE others on gun safety, secure storage and such, but even more importantly; they could advocate for keeping guns out of the hands of people like Adam Lanza through proper psychological evaluation.
Below is the editorial I wrote right after this tragedy unfolded, when the anti-gun crowd was screaming for ALL guns to be banned, and it covers a bit of the *psychological* aspect of the argument, and it is a slippery slope.

Lawsuits like this tend to make me loose any sympathy I had for the families. It’s terrible what happened but millions have given their lives to ensure we have the right to keep and bear arms and that includes the AR-15. From what I understand, the mother kept the guns under lock and key but after he killed his mother, he got access to the keys. To go after Bushmaster is absurd but like you said, it’s ultra liberal Connecticut. This is a case that could possibly head to SCOTUS because of the ramifications if the manufacturers lost.
I don’t know anything about this lawyer, but he apparently has no qualms about taking a case that plays on sympathies and the foolish ideas of the Left. More than the families of dead children and adults, I blame a legal system and those practitioners who take advantage of loopholes and widespread ignorance to find opportunities wow to enrich themselves.
Sad,sad, sad. If the number of victims is so important, how are people in Connecticut still allowed to own cars, especially assault wow vehicles like the Humvee, designed originally for military use. Should they ban the civilian version? wow This is what happens when our lawmakers ignore The Constitution and the ambulance chasers are allowed to file frivolous wow lawsuits. There are between wow 30 and 40 thousand deaths a year as a result of automobile accidents. To me, there is no difference between using a gun to commit a crime or baseball bat, hammer, hatchet, golf club, ad infinitum. Let’s ban the automobile, after all, it’s for the children.
This lawsuit MAY be about the 2nd Amendment–BUT
