Current TV’s John Fugelsang talks to Tim Dickinson, Rolling Stone national affairs correspondent, and Benjamin Wallace-Wells, New York Magazine contributing editor, about how the gun industry has been enabled by government. Dickinson cites a 2005 bill that protected gun makers from civil lawsuits.
“These are weapons that are tested on the battlefield and sold and marketed for their lethality,” Dickinson says, referring to guns like the one used in the Fort Hood shooting, which was first developed by NATO. “And there’s no liability for these products that are incredibly deadly for being used for killing people.”
