Judge Dismisses NAACP Lawsuit Against Gun Maker
A federal judge dismissed the NAACP's case against handgun makers Monday, ruling that the group showed gun retailers were careless but failed to prove that its members were uniquely harmed.The NAACP proved its members "did suffer relatively more harm from the nuisance created by the defendants through illegal availability of guns in New York," U.S. District Judge Jack Weinstein wrote in a 175-page decision.
"It failed, however, to show that its harm was different in kind from that suffered by other persons in New York," Weinstein added.
CNN has the story here. I'd originally blogged about this case when it started back in April.
