but let me just say, congress failed after sandy hook.also glad that there is finally been some sense of justice over cindy hawk, congress failed. there is federal immunity from these lawsuits. this lawsuit actually succeeded because there was a state statute having to do with consumer protection. it was the marketing of this gun, that allowed the legal basis for the settlement. and there are other states that have similar laws, but there is a whole lot of states, lawrence, that don't. in fact, there was just a case in the battle the court there said no to a lawsuit by one of the many victims of the box shooting in las vegas, because nevada has a law that protects the gun manufacturers, gives them immunity. so i want us to celebrate this sense of justice today, particularly for those families and their incredible loss, but we have to double our efforts because most americans want there to be more gun safety laws in place. we are the world's leader of massacre of our own citizens by weapons of war. >> shannon watts, many of us thought that

or was this specific to the facts governing sandy hook in that massacre? certainly opens the door. as i said, it creates a blueprint, a road, to hold other gun companies accountable for their sales and marketing, and some of the ways that they market their products. opening the floodgates may be overstating the case. these cases are still going to be challenging, this is not something that flips a switch, to where anybody injured in a situation with the firearm can bring it to light. and certain circumstances, every american hopes we never see anything as horrific a sandy hook. unfortunately, we d.c. these mass shootings, and we continue to see marketing approaches by the industry, that are as irresponsible. really, over the past couple years, it's even more responsible with the bushmaster product, in this case. i think we are going to see more of this litigation, but, as you said, the federal immunity laws led to most of these cases being thrown. out this is an important step forward. this is something that shows that there is a path forward, that these c

the sandy hook families here pursued a theory of negligent entrustment.utomatic rifle used by adam lanza, the primary guns that he used among others, and because it's a military-grade weapon it's very similar to what soldiers use though it does not fire in an automatic mode, but they said it was negligent to entrust it to civilians. initially a state court judge in connecticut had said that the families couldn't proceed, that the federal law barred this lawsuit from happening. the connecticut supreme court reversed in 2019 so that's now seven years after the shooting, and just now this case has been settled rather than going to trial. >> so what is the significance of what a settlement represents? we're still waiting to see the details in remington has to admit any kind of a fault. if they are arguing it shouldn't have been for civilians, shouldn't have been for them and we're seeing an historic $73 million settlement. what should that tell us? >> you know, remington is already in bankruptcy, so for them this settlement agreement, it will be interesting t

obviously something positive they're saying is going to prevent the next sandy hook. do you think the settlement in any way makes such sure, tragedies less likely in future? well, i certainly think those that make and sell these type of weapons will think twice of the impact of what they do. however, the problem is already there in the u. s. i think that there are so many guns in society that it's difficult to say this having a huge impact a day. this is the 1st settlement to all of its kind, quite a historic and event here. and do you see this opening up the floodgates and encouraging a barrows of legal actions against going to make is victims of out of my say things . well, i think you have to examine 1st what kind of gun was used. it's sandy hook compared with what kind of gun is used in the typical american shooting that isn't, you know, a robbery that kind of thing. and the answer is that the a are 15, the military style weapon, what they indirectly call an assault weapon is used in probably less than 10 percent. maybe even more like one percent of those events.
