What if the gunfire causes an abortion? What if someone drops a frozen embryo due to the gunfire? What if a librarian accidentally orders a banned book due to the gunfire? What if the gunfire makes someone transexual?
We’re going to need some clarification here.
Hey, leave asking questions to Tucker, Putins buttbuddy
As a non american I'm getting this wild west vibe from recent guns legislation news.
It's more Mad Max given the increasing incidents of road rage
Hey America, how's it going?

This has to be the most deranged law in the history of laws. Murder being a crime is probably one of the few things you can count on everywhere if there's a working state.
Of course.
Sword owners are being forgotten again, it's an outrage!
This is absolute insanity. Goddamn Louisiana republiQans are off the fucking rails.
Hard to know all the details from this article, but it seems like they are raising the bar for civil suits as a result of an action with a firearm to the same level as a criminal action. Basically changing the standard from being a preponderance of evidence to beyond reasonable doubt. https://thedefenders.net/blogs/preponderance-of-evidence/
So essentially, if you're found not-guilty after using a firearm in a self-defense situation, then you are also shielded from a civil action for that event.
This is probably in response to "robber sues homeowner after being injured while breaking into a house" stories that float around occasionally.
Heck, I could be way off base here, but that's how I read it.
All I can do is laugh and shake my head. This is insanity.
I think that what started this was the effort to go after firearms manufacturers -- who really don't have much to do with how a firearm is used -- for wrongful deaths. That got blocked back in 2005.
I wonder how something like that can be constitutional lol. Just take that paper and wipe your ass with it already :D Trump should issue a new constitution branded toilet paper, I bet the morons would buy it!

So I figure someone looked at that law and figured "okay, extend to the person using the firearm".
Louisiana saw the attention Alabama was getting for making IVF illegal and got jealous so they made their own stupid law.
License to kill
