GUN MANUFACTURERS CANNOT BE SUED because of a law passed by GW BUSH.

Manufacturers and/or distributors do not have to give the police or authorities requested information about guns used in crimes.


The law signed that day, the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, has smothered lawsuits by cities around the country, including by New York, that sought to force manufacturers to be more careful in how they sold and distributed guns.

An article in The New York Times on Tuesdayreported that numerous gun executives stated during sworn depositions that it was not important for them to keep track of how often their guns were used in crimes.
For instance, Mr. Brown said that he never examined the “trace” requests that came from law enforcement to see which of the companies that he supplied were, in turn, selling guns that ended up being used in crimes.
