I'm getting a headache from all this litigation of weird stuff.
I hope WM fights and wins.
If these cases are not fought , won and precedence established , folks will be suing everthing from the folks that make their undies , clothes and shoes ( cause they were dressed at the time) to the various mfgs of the vehicle they drove, ( car maker, battery, tires , oil , gas... otherwise the vehicle could not hav run to get them there- wherever "there" might be) to streets , parking lots...you get the idea.
Sounds to me NICS goofed up. Most folks have to learn to eat crow and face the music when they goof up. NICS just has to admit - if they did.
Perhaps the anti's will learn that failures occur in regulating statues. They sure don't believe BGs ignore the law...or like Prohibition didn't work...
Mistakes are a part of Life. Litigation cannot change what happened.
