If the gun industry applied the same innovation and technology that has been applied to the car industry I would suspect we could have guns that could only be operated by the legal owner, as an example. And if that means you can't buy a gun for $50, so be it. |

Should car manufacturers be liable for defects in their products? Would you disagree that cars have improved in terms of safety due to the fact they are liable for such issues? Or do you think cars would be 'so much better' if only they didn't have to deal with pesky lawsuits ?

I heard Sanders say he was Jewish; I thought earlier he had said he was an Atheist? I hoped he would have downplayed the role of religion in the presidency more in his answer.

Hillary going after the Evangelical vote was hilarious, and I though would have stuck in the crawl of some of the zealots on here.

He has to the best of my knowledge never claimed to be atheist, spiritual, but not religious is what I remember him saying a month or two back. But the Jewish bit is an ethnic term rather than a religious one.
... a retired school administrator, asked Sanders how relevant God was in his life “When we talk about God,†Sanders said, “what we are talking about is what all religions hold to be true, and that is to do unto others what you would like them to do unto you. I’m here tonight because I believe that.†.. saying his faith is an “essential part of who I am as a human being." |

Today, I can get into my car in a completely drunken state, drive irresponsibly, and smash into other cars. This is clearly my fault, but still, several decades of safety improvements have led to a situation where the amount of damage I could do is likely way less than if cars were exactly as they were 50 years ago. Anyway - I don't want to turn this into yet another gun thread so I'll let it drop. |

How do these manufacturers get away with it? |
