Not the point. Firearms are products made by private industry, and like any private industry the CEO's goal is to keep and expand profits to attract shareholders. Just like Wells Fargo only got a slap on the wrist, we have allowed for far too long the corporate world to bully the rest of us.
The same reason we have our pay gap too. We have allowed the top to bully society and economic free for all with no accountability.
The worst thing congress did was to make it impossible to sue the factories.
Now when I say sue, I don't mean ban, but they should be sued for their marketing, just like big tobacco was sued and forced to stop marketing the way they were.
That was my point, Brian.
