10. I wanted to add also from 15 U.S. Code § 7901:
Thu Oct 20, 2016, 03:53 PM
Oct 2016

"Businesses in the United States that are engaged in interstate and foreign commerce through the lawful design, manufacture, marketing, distribution, importation, or sale to the public of firearms or ammunition products that have been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce are not, and should not, be liable for the harm caused by those who criminally or unlawfully misuse firearm products or ammunition products that function as designed and intended."

A business which conforms to laws in there state and to federal laws regarding their operation should not be subject to civil suits seeking damages from these businesses for the crimes of others.
