Comment on Why shouldn’t firearm manufacturers be held accountable for the use of their weapons in crimes?
weeeeum@lemmy.world 9 months agoMany objects are meant to kill by design. Daggers are frankly entirely useless as a knife but would you sue a company for making a dagger? Even then if daggers were banned people would just use kitchen knives. The bullet that kills the most people in the US is actually the scrappy little .22 LR, a very weak cartridge. If all guns were banned a knife frankly isn’t much less lethal.

When was the last time someone killed hundreds of people with a knife??

So we will only hold him manufacturers liable when a single actor with a single weapon kills hundreds of people?

I’m just pointing out there is a massive difference between a stabbing weapon and a long range automatic/semi auto weapon
