Gun manufacturers insist that these deaths are not their fault, preferring to pin the blame on criminals and irresponsible dealers. They have fiercely resisted even minimal restrictions on sales and have simultaneously washed their hands of responsibility for this "collateral damage."


What a stupid article - gun makers are the most heavily regulated industry in the country. No other product made has a serial number and tracked from manufacturer to end user and records keep at every point of sale including the fact that only licensed dealers can be involved at every point. The customer themselves must even pass a background check.

The trouble is this still does nothing to reduce crime as criminals continue to break the laws no matter how many things you make illegal.
