DEFECTIVE GUNS: The Government is NOT ALLOWED to RECALL Defective Guns!! Crazy but true.

Cars and most other unsafe products can be recalled but not guns.  THE NRA AT WORK.

According to Dallas attorney Jeffrey Hightower, who has tried several lawsuits against Remington related to the 700, guns hold a special place in American law.  That special place is critical to gun-rights advocates, who claim that giving the government power to recall guns would amount to an infringement on the Second Amendment.  

I don't know of any other major industry that is essentially allowed to set its own safety regulations.  We would never stand for, say, the automobile industry being allowed to police itself.  Why should guns be any different?
