Should automakers be liable for drunk drivers? Should fast food companies be liable for heart disease deaths? Don’t ask these questions to billionaire radical progressive George Soros or anyone leading his Open Societies Foundation. The way they’re lobbying against gun manufacturers, one might assume they do not believe in an individual’s personal responsibility for, well, anything.
Around $9 million has already gone to lobbying Washington DC to repeal the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA), a 2005 law that protects gun manufacturers from frivolous lawsuits when their products are used in criminal acts or otherwise fired unlawfully. These lobbying efforts are aimed at holding gun manufacturers accountable for crimes that are committed at any time, even years after the initial lawful purchase of their firearms.
This is ludicrous in every regard. Keep in mind, gun manufacturers are not protected under PLCAA for all lawsuits. If a gun malfunctions, they can still be sued, for example. But the notion that holding them accountable for criminal activities that utilize their products is asinine. If a criminal shoots someone, then hits them with their vehicle, should the automaker get sued as well? You can’t hold one industry to account without holding every industry to account.
Soros Spends Nearly $9 Million Lobbying, Now Targets Guns https://t.co/ia8HoL9CX7

As reported by Free Beacon:
The Open Society Policy Center, Soros’s D.C.-based 501(c)4 nonprofit that works on domestic and international advocacy and is affiliated with the much larger Open Society Foundations, has poured nearly $9 million into such efforts so far this year.
Soros’s group reported spending $2.6 million on lobbying throughout the first quarter, covering international, military, and appropriations issues. In addition, the center moved into gun control advocacy and reported lobbying on “issues related to a bill to repeal the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act.”
This has nothing to do with common sense and everything to do with the left’s full-court press on firearms. They want the people disarmed and they’ll hit every front possible until their goals are achieved. Gun owners, gun sellers, and gun manufacturers are all fair play to progressives.
Individuals must be held accountable for their actions. Knife manufacturers aren’t blamed when people are stabbed. Car makers aren’t blamed when people are run over. Gun manufacturers should’t be sued when people are shot. George Soros doesn’t care.
