    Something tells me you’re not a lawyer.

        Does remindmebot exist on Lemmy? I’d be very interested in a friendly wager.

          I don’t know but I’m 3 for 3 on these.

          Bet that Supreme Court would uphold ATF interpretation on bump stock ban. That appeals courts would find a violation of 1A where Trump and other political figures blocked constituents on social media. And I bet that Remington was going to be found liable in the Sandy Hook lawsuit on a theory not wholly dissimilar from the one we’re talking about here. I’m pretty good at novel theories of liability.
