Our View The NAACP suit misreads gun crime causes and shifts blame
The piece criticizes a New York City NAACP lawsuit alleging gun manufacturers bear responsibility for crime. It argues relying on BATF crime data is flawed, that law enforcement should target offenders, not manufacturers, and that holding third parties liable ignores personal accountability. It notes moral peril in accusing providers while discussing defense options for the poor.
