Please know that you are preaching to the choir! ![]() However, you can sign all the liability waivers you want....if some idiot (and lets face it, there is a HUGE population of them out there) were to draw and shoot HIS toe off, that's one thing.....if he draws and kills the man in the next stand, that's another. And while it may be HIS fault, you can bet that in our litigious society, it's not the idiot individual that will be sued, but the owner of the establishment where it happened, because HE is the one with the business (money). This is why Winchester and Marlin now have those stupid thumb safeties on their latest lever guns.....people can't be trusted to not point a firearm at someone. One of those stems from a lawsuit here in MI or WI where a kid killed his dad because he shot at "noise"....whirled and fired and killed his old man. Anybody, and I mead ANYBODY, who has taken a hunter's safety course knows you don't shoot at 'noise" (and supposedly this young mad took said course), yet the lawyers argued that if this 'safety' was on the gun, then the 'accident' wouldn't have happened....and the firearms manufacturer (i.e. deep pockets) had to pay for something that wasn't their fault. IMHO, liability waivers aren't worth the paper they are printed on.....I've seen too many good attorneys find ways around them. If it's banned from the get go, then it's a lot harder to sue the owner of the establishment for "neglect". Sadly, this is the world we now live in..................... ![]()
