I hope they do get to see us in court! I would love to see any increased regulation of an out of control and damaging industry. We license and register cars and drivers, and I don't understand why we don't license and register equally dangerous weapons and those who use them. We have safety regulations for children's toys, but not guns, which unfortunately kill so many more children. Here's hoping Mexico's actions have an impact, if not in the USA, then in Mexico, at the very least in protecting more children from gun violence.

Like you Mike, I don't hold out much hope that Mexico will prevail, but it would be good if they did, and one can hope. There's something seriously out of whack when an industry that is the target of so many complaints and lawsuits due to the way they don't give a damn about human cost over the pursuit of profit seeks (and finds) a solution in prohibiting such complaints and lawsuits, instead of the radical idea of changing their approach and their mindset.

Thanks for the article. Well done.

My eye lashes are singed by your fire, Mike. I concur and I am shocked by the lucid stats. I immigrated to this beautiful country for the many opportunities and I hope I have given back though my vocation. There is this shadow aspect, "The Bully": we have military stations in so many countries is another example like yours. sigh....
