From San Bernardino, California, to Newtown, Connecticut, the AR-15 is the weapon of choice for mass shootings.
And a Connecticut judge heard arguments today over whether the Remington Outdoor Co. — the parent company of the manufacturer of the AR-15 military assault weapon used in the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in 2012 — will be held accountable for the 26 lives lost.
The hearing was expected to determine whether a wrongful death lawsuit, brought by 10 victims’ families against the gun company, will go to trial. No immediate ruling was made today and a status conference was set for April 19.
The gun company was expected to ask the judge to dismiss the suit, in which the “plaintiffs seek nothing more and nothing less than accountability.”
But to Nicole Hockley, the mother of 6-year-old Sandy Hook victim Dylan Hockley, gun companies “must be held accountable for marketing and selling the AR-15, a killing machine designed only for military use, to violence-prone young men.”
The Sandy Hook gunman, Adam Lanza, was 20 when he shot and killed his mother before going to the Sandy Hook Elementary School where he massacred 20 first-graders and six educators, before killing himself.
“No lawsuit will ever bring Dylan back to our family,” Hockley said. “No lawsuit will ever bring back any of the 26 innocent lives that were stolen or bring peace to the families that will never recover from this.
“We’re bringing this lawsuit to save other families from having to live with the nightmare that we do every single day.”
The gun company has declined to comment to ABC News, citing the pending litigation, but did cite a 2005 federal law in which gun manufacturers and dealers are inoculated from liability after mass shootings.
“And a Connecticut judge heard arguments today over whether the Remington Outdoor Co. — the parent company of the manufacturer of the AR-15 military assault weapon used in the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in 2012 — will be held accountable for the 26 lives lost.”
Slam dunk for Remington.
All their lawyers need to do is show up in court with a copy of the FBI statistics for 2014 showing ZERO murders in Newtown, CT.
Would love to hear their explanation for THAT one.

LYING B#TCH!!!
You deserve nothing less than a lead lobotomy yourself for perpetuating the hoax.
Another article typo…. it should read…
“Gun Companies Sue Sandy Hook Mom to Save Other Families”
Where do they get these gollum shills?
Man…. talking about mind control.
“No lawsuit will ever bring Dylan back to our family,” Hockley said. “No lawsuit will ever bring back any of the 26 innocent lives that were stolen or bring peace to the families that will never recover from this.”
No lawsuit could ever being back someone who was never killed.
Hockley….? Which Fake Sandy Hook parent is that one again? I’m really having trouble keeping all the Fake Sandy Hook parents straight.
Is she the Fake one who is an actress or is she the Fake one who is an actress and is friends with Hitlery?
Or is she the Fake one who was formerly an actress?
Sandy’s really got us hooked,
New reality show material?
Yeah… Starring ..,Alyssa Milano and Vanilla Ice.
With cameos from Andrew Dice Clay.
We could throw a few old drunken child stars in that are still alive.
David Lee Roth can play the Grandma…that looks like
Carol Channing.
Where’s Shirley Temple? Dom Delouise would be outraged! “You naughty, naughty boy, I must spank you now.” Then, Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin wallow into the joint and order a couple “Shirley Temples”. All the while, Rowan and Martin’s been hiding in the closet, until Tiny Tim showed ’em. Goldie Hawn, should have won actress of a lifetime for pretending to be such a ditz.
Let’s move on to more worthy awards. Trump, hands down, wins the “Turd Sandwich” award, and Hitlery wins the Douchebag award.
So, this election boils down to a fight between a “Turd Sandwich and a Douchebag.” (South Park)
Fkng killing me..:)
Has anyone noticed that Yahoo has stopped having hardly any stories of it’s own and started redirecting you to outside sites that require logging into facebook to comment? Also, they did away with the comment notifications and the ability to see your comments or replies to your comments. This happened right about the time that Yahoo came out with a story saying how Israel was putting their best cybersecurity people on squashing the anti-Israeli movement on the internet because too many people were catching on to how evil they truly are. It’s easy to see who owns Yahoo by looking at how every other story there is either whining about the poor joooos or trying to incite hate between blacks and whites. Has anyone here noticed this? I only went there to comment to try to wake up the sheep. Others were too and it seemed that Yahoo couldn’t take the heat of people going there and sharing the truth with their braindead readers.
I think this lawsuit may just be the turning point to uncovering the truth about Sandy Hook. I am looking forward to these fake families being the ones that finally do themselves in.
One thing I do know is the gun companies are not just going to roll over and play dead when it comes to being sued when the truth will put an end to this.
Oh boy! Good job! (sarcasm)
Hey, while you’re at it, why don’t you sue the government for sending your kid to die or suing Monsanto for poisoning your food or suing the health companies for poisoning your kids with vaccines or suing car companies for all of the accidents people have been in or suing Hollywood for making violent and graphic movies and shows.
Unfrigginbelievable!!!!!!
