I faced a "scattergun lawsuit" once during my Fire/EMS career. A woman got rear-ended at a traffic light. Her lawyer sued EVERYBODY for causing/aggravating her "grievous injuries & suffering": the driver who hit her, her car manufacturer, his car manufacturer, his mechanic, her mechanic, the City, the County, the State highway department (road conditions/traffic light timing), my EMS agency, our Medical Director, my crew, me, the Fire Department, the extrication equipment manufacturer, the backboard manufacturer, the cervical collar manufacturer, the IV supplies manufacturer, the oxygen supplies msnufacturer, the supplier of our oxygen (yeah, I'm serious), the stretcher manufacturer, the ambulance chassis builder, the ambulance builder, the dealer we bought our ambulance from, the hospital, the Emergency Room, the ER doc, the nurses, the xray department, xray tech, hospital gurney manufacturer, xray machine manufacturer, hospital bed manufacturer, the hospit... Well, you get the idea. The judge threw out everything against 99% of the chosen victims of the money grab but then took it a step farther. Since the insurance for the driver that hit her was paying literally EVERYTHING to help this woman, the judge threw out even the portion of the suit against the driver - mainly because of an error in the way the lawsuit was worded, but also, I think, out of spite for the utter bollocks of it all. So yeah, Brandon, these grifter lawyers are everywhere... 🤦♂️
They aren't "everywhere" at all. The vast majority don't want to waste their time on a case they know they won't win.
Nah bro the attorney literally sued the entire planet.
@@bbbbbbb51 They are everywhere man look at billboards along the road. I worked in the evil pit of insurance. The amount of people who'd try and sue the other driver when their insurance covered all the bills + some pain and suffering is asinine. Then their clients would call us claiming after legal fees they were not set right. Hire a damn lawyer only if you know you are being screwed. Losing a life, or piece of your body and suing is a lot more understandable as that damage can be criminal negligence and bodily harm. Usually in accidents no jail time, but deep legal fees, etc. People often times don't get slammer time unless they are DUI.
@@bbbbbbb51 they're everywhere doesn't mean they're all of them or even the majority you clown looool all it takes is one in every area to make your day worse because of their shit at the wall strats
im proud of you for typing every party involved
If you can successfully sue any company for advertising, then you have successfully demolished the First Amendment.
Maybe you've been sleepwalking through the Neo-Marxists' post-Constitutional putsch era, but the 1st Amendment has been squarely in the sights of progressive liberals for years now.
This already has happened. I don’t know if it was a Remington or something or if they themselves appealed, but there is already a case of this happening.
Actually this is a thing, and it depends on the advertisement, and what it entails. Typically appealing to audiences that can't legally use the items they show, and/or via promoting crime among other things.
However, none of these memes promote crime, the ones that even "promote violence" are about hypothetical situations of legal survival, and while their products may appeal to minors via a select few T rated games, nothing is incentivising minors to illegally obtain and use guns, and M rated games aren't promoted towards minors.
Basically no legal basses here for this insufferably unhinged, idiotic lawsuit
I drank a Pepsi cola, and was thirsty several days after, therefore I’m suing them for false advertising. My thirst was quenched only temporarily.
The 2nd amendment helps enforce all the other amendments. We should teach these people trying to take away our rights that.
What really sucks is that if you pay attention to the case, you can tell the suit wasn't her idea. It was absolutely an attorney trying to take advantage of her traumatized state by convincing her to file a bullshit suit she has no chance of winning. But she's the one who's gonna lose money over this.
How do you know it wasnt her idea. No shortage of stupid greedy people these days
No she won't, these types of suits are paid for by other people.
Yeah, no. This is Karen type crap.
Lawyers can't sue on your behalf. She had to say yes to this, which means she's 100% responsible, just as much as the lawyer.
Brandon, all of these "named" companies need to get together and sue the attorney for filing a maliciously false lawsuit. When companies start fighting back it will begin to deter these types of obviously slimy lawyers. These type of erroneous lawsuits should result in severe punishment for the attorneys who waste the courts time.
I think it would be better for individual lawsuits. The lawyer would be buried under the court with litigation.
@@w.knudsen5570 Unfortunately the American legal system would allow the defendant to file a motion to consolidate them into one case as they are all directly connected to a single event. Basically a class-action against him.
When tobacco companies, pharmaceutical companies, knife companies and home depot get sued for "their products being used to harm others", I might acknowledge a lawsuit against a firearm manufacturer.

Lawyers need to face harsher punishments for convincing vulnerable people into frivolous lawsuits
A lawyers job is to get rhe best result for their client. If there is a chance to get more out of a situation, they are legally required to tell their client.
Y'all do not seem to understand how th profession is supposed to work...
@@rompevuevitos222 scamming people into lolsuits that have little chance to win, then turning around on their clients with legal fees is not the "best result"
@@VenomSnakee legal fees are always on the table, be it with this or any other maneuver, it is not a scam, it is how lawyers work.
The chances of winning part is true, they should have been more clear about the risk reward potential, but it is far from illegal to no suggest the safest option. Otherwise every lawyer would say "lets plead guilty and make a deal to be safe that you do not get max sentence"
A blanket lawsuit is for emotionally driven cases that usually never hold up. Basically casting a wide net, hoping for settlements
Yup! Exactly my thoughts. They include as many as they can and if just one settles, that's money they didn't get otherwise. They know when they file these suits that most of it will get tossed, but there's always the chance one or more will go Remmington on it and the client and attorney will make out like a bandit. Mostly the attorney.
As a man who has read all the Twilight books to get with a girl.....

Lawyers should be held accountable for frivolous lawsuits. Politicians should be held accountable.
Don't forget the asshats who hired the lawyer in the first place, like the "victim" of the attempted shooting.
Aren't false Allegations punishable by fine?
@@umporeon0132No there are no fines however, it sets up litigation for a defamation lawsuit if it is completely proven intentional and causes financial harm or damage.
Example for no consequence:
Adam lies about Bet. Bet wishes to sue for defamation but can’t due to lack of financial damage and the inability to prove that Adam knew he said lies.
Example for litigation:
Adam lies about Bet. Because of Adam’s lie Mr. Cina stops doing business with Bet and says that Adams lie is why. Adam posts an apology on Facebook for lying.
With this information Bet can prove defamation. Due to proven financial damage and proven false allegations.
@@umporeon0132 Aka, a mild inconvenience to the rich and powerful.

Every one of them should file their own countersuit. Not a class action, or a group lawsuit, make that law firm have to defend a bunch of individual suits, MUCH more painful to them, and not much more expensive to the companies affected.
They should sue the attorney who made this and not the victim of the shooting.
@@tetraxis3011I don't think they can as the lawyer isn't the litigant
@@tetraxis3011 Ideally yes but I don't think countersuits let you do it that way. I don't know what grounds they would have to sue the lawyers/firm. In fact I'm pretty sure the law is set up specifically to protect the lawyers and firms from this which is how we got to this point of sleazy lawyers willing to sue anyone for any reason: they have no personal risk in the outcome of the case. The only thing they have to lose is their pay/billable hours/time and their win/loss record, neither of which are particularly large risks
..and keeping lawyers fed is what's important in this economy...
@sdivine13 you can sue the lawyer if you sue for the reasons that you allege the lawyer KNOWS the suit is spurious and contemptuous of both the law and the court.
I'm British, and I've always had a great fascination with firearms. I love the engineering side of firearms and the history of them. I always say it's not the tool the person is using, but the person using the tool. It's stupid that people are getting sued for memes, lol.
Same, although I have the annoying fact that I'm afraid of loud noises.
Seeing memes being explained in legal documents is pure gold. The future is going to be great. (By “great” I mean completely batsh*t crazy)
The fact that this lawsuit seriously contains the exact phrase "violent weaponry" says a lot!
Yep, like "assauIt rifIes" that have yet to assauIt anyone 🙄🤦♀️
Indeed.
‘Violent weaponry” is as much a misnomer as ‘honest lawyer”.
‘Violence” and ‘assault” are not objects, they are Verbs, Actions, Human Behaviors, in other words, they are Verbs.
Guns, magazines, ammunition etc are inanimate objects. They are incapable of making decisions, they are incapable of committing crimes.
@@metalmamasue3680 "Assault rifle" is a legitimate term, it just gets consistently misused both by tacticool morons and media organizations that don't care what the actual definition is
But..but...these walking and bullet-spitting pieces of metal and plastic (also known as "guns") are a threat to the society as a whole!
Woe is ours!

I wonder what the market demand is like for peaceful weapons...
Brandon just fooled everyone by doing an entire gun meme review from a court document so he wouldn't have to search and find memes on his own
I mean, if someone already put in the leg work what's the harm.

You have too much faith in the injustice system. Whether it works or not has no bearing on the law or the merits, merely who appointed the judge presiding over the case. Was there a D by the name? Odds are it goes forward and gets dragged out, intentionally, to create costs and negative publicity. A settlement would just be a bonus. @@___meph___4547

@@___meph___4547They'll keep throwing stuff at this until something sticks, then piece by piece, they'll create precedent to do more damage.
The worst part of this isn’t that this lawsuit exists, but that when the case fails, the plaintiffs will be on the hook for the legal fees from all those companies. Because Tort is a thing.
These ambulance chasing Lawyers should be held financially accountable for manipulating the emotionally vulnerable victims of crimes into frivolous lawsuits.
You forget where they’re suing. Do you trust the judges or the people living in Washington DC?
@@justanothergmailaccount1353About as far as I can throw the entire courtroom..
Honestly I think if someone files a lawsuit that's later thrown out or found to be frivolous, they should either serve prison time and do labor, or lose their right to file a lawsuit in the future, vote, run for office, work in any public service/government position, etc. Maybe people will be less apt to waste the time of our justice system and the money of other people to defend themselves against bullshit if they know they'll lose EVERYTHING as a result.

All of these companies should separately file a defamation lawsuit and sue them in to oblivion.
This poor bastard is boutta get Alex Jones’d into bankruptcy hell.
Litigation privilege. Court-filed documents cannot be the basis for a defamation tort.
They can
They could probably make counterclaims that most of their evidence is irrelevant to the case or has blatant logical fallacies like blaming the manufacturer for using a product that isn't in the scope of the case. Those counterclaims would probably get instantly accepted since it doesn't even take a lawyer to realize that.
@@jcornscorndog941 You're a lawyer?
This lawyer must have forgotten what the First Amendment is. They hand out licenses like candy these days.
Unlike you, that attorney went to law school. The First Amendment does not regulate the actions of private citizens and private businesses. This is not a 1A case. Educate yourself before you speak on this topic again, lest you embarrass yourself with your ignorance again.

In this lawsuit, Defamation against a Private Party is rather irrelevant. It's better to quickly toss it out of the court or to sue for legal fees.
Especially when this lawsuit is frivolous without hard evidence to back the False Advertising beyond personal grandeur.

So are drawings on a card.
The problem we are running into is that private citizens can sue for just about everything. The constitution only protects you from the government

As a small, small child, just before getting into video games, there was a lawyer by the name of Jack Thompson, suing Best Buy, Wal-Mart, and every game developer he could think of over "violent content" in video games.
He lost case after case, and while he made it pretty much standard company policy across electronics retailers to ID for M-rated games, there still is not a legal binding to it. He was eventually disbarred for frivolous lawsuits. From Florida.
We need to push, not just for winning these absurdist cases, but for the same punishments on any lawyers who take them.
Wow. Disbarred in Florida is an achievement all on its own.
Oh Jack Thompson, you lovable rascal. And by "lovable rascal" I mean complete rat bastard.
How nostalgic. Haven't heard his name in many years.
Dude, Jack Thompson. That's a name I haven't heard in a while. Even as a kid, I was born in 1990, am 33 now, I knew Jack was a monumental moron. At the time, I was like, "aren't the parents supposed to know what their kids are doing, and actually "parent" them?"
I remember this clown from when I was a child. As a child I was stunned, because I couldn't think of 2 things more dissimilar. I remember Penn & Teller giving a rifle to a gamer child and the child started crying after firing the rifle. Two different fucking universes entirely.

A blacktivist in the UK was domed with a handgun, y'all arent free from it either.
Also would be funny to see how the numbers stack up if you add stabbings ontop of USA shooting numbers... And I don't mean that in the passive aggressive way, actually funny.
We have the same problem of massaged statistics. Knife crime involves any crime where a "sharp implement" was recovered, not even used in the crime.
Knife deaths, it's around 150 to 300 in any year.
Very few of those in schools though.

Also, I hope that her lawyer informed her of what a “slap back lawsuit” and the possible costs this can incur for her. These are some big names with a lot of money, and their legal teams will likely charge somewhere in the area of $1,500 per hour at a minimum.
Just gonna get thrown out of court.
Sounds like this whole law suit can be summed up in five words: "Go home, Karen, you're drunk."
Honest to God I hope this goes nowhere and then there’s legal precedent against these kinds of frivolous lawsuits. All we need is 1 judge looking at the Plaintiff’s Counsel and just saying “no, this is dumb, you are dumb, get out of my courtroom.”
It doesn't just extend to gun companies but all other companies too. "This guy murdered my family with a knife! I'm suing them! But they also had Kelloggs cereal for breakfast, I'm also suing Kelloggs for helping the murderer to kill my family!"
The goal of this lawsuit is not to get money for the victim. The goal is to make the defendants spend obscene amounts of money defending it, and bankrupting them.
Saul Goodman scumbag-level shit.
The real punishment is in the process.
They aren't going to be capable of bankrupting most of these companies. DD, Federal/Vista, Fiocchi America/Munizioni, Surefire, and Magpul? Definitely not. The lawyers filing the suit don't have the funds to challenge multi-billion dollar, federally contracted corporations like these (yes, some aren't multi-billion, but they will work together in a suit). The smaller companies like Centurion are potentially at risk, but I think they will be able to hold themselves afloat with the help of the others. The lawyers/individual suing are putting themselves at considerable risk of loss from potential attorney's fees being awarded to the defendants.
and re victimize the plaintiff.
Ok... that actually makes sense, and it is scary.
“You either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain” perfectly sums up the bringer of this lawsuit.
Tack pack honestly was funny going to check them out just because of their humor.
As someone who has worked for the same law firm for the past 31 years (admin capacity), I can attest that some attorneys do, in fact, lack a soul as well as a spine.

Great video & like you, I hope none of these companies cave to the BS lawsuit. It's just as bad as the recent one where they're going after the parents of a shooter! WTF?!?
Another GREAT one!!!
If I lived in Texas I would definitely vote for you. Thanks for the content bro
The right of the people to meme, shall not be infringed
it's protected free speech, right?
Just a side note, mini shells and multi-capacity tube shotguns are ideal for home defense and offer solutions to the two complaints lodged against shotguns for home defense. From my experience at least.
Thanks bro
This isn't even the 2nd amendment lawsuit. It's the 1st - and that's even scarier.
it's not 1A, 1A only applies to when the government is the one making accusations. this is private citizen on private citizen and 1A doesn't mean shit in this case.
@@themanformerlyknownascomme777 well the government by the hand of a judge will decide if you can post memes or not. If this goes anywhere of course.
@@konradterlikowski8788 did you not understand anything I just said?
civil court = private citizen having greivence with another private citizen, the Goverment doesn't actively go around looking for cases to drag into civil court (it would waste the courts more meager budgets for one thing)
@@themanformerlyknownascomme777 By that logic, if I sued a priest/congregation/some religious people, just because I believe that what they preach from the bible made someone else commit a crime that I was a victim of, and then a judge ( in a civil court ) would say that I am right and just for the fact that someone preaches their religion, they need to pay me.....this isn't a 1st amendment issue? Really? On one hand you can preach, but for your protected speach you will have to pay?
Should a judge side with the lady that put the lawsuit just because he/she is anti gun, that isn't a 1st amendment issue?
Don't you think, that if those companies would be found liable in a civil case, that woulnd't open the doors for the government to try something more?
The fact, that this is not government vs people lawsuit, doesn't mean it can;t have 1st amendment ramifications with pushing more laws on speach. It's a little bit short sighted.
@@konradterlikowski8788 the thing is, you can sue them! you just have to prove to the court or a Jury that what they said was a strong contributing factor. and just because something *can* potentially have ramifications, there is a motion that can be raised before the trial starts to have the whole thing dismissed outright (that motion is usually reserved for when the more powerful party is the one on the offensive, but it can apply here) if civil court was such a deadly threat to the constitution as you think it is, then all the amendments would have been struck down long ago.
This is taking ambulance chasing lawyers to a whole new level.
They have GTA'd the Ambulance to drive to victims EVEN FASTER
I hope this gets thrown out.
My brain ceased up like a dry motor. Especially for the balcony and Instagram posts. Counter suit as a class action against the attorney, the attorneys office and their victims of marketing and sue them into bankruptcy
Only a Karen would file such a ridiculous lawsuit. Keeping the Karen memes alive.
I believe it’s the attorney who convinced her to sue manufacturers
@@tetraxis3011 a Karen had to accept. Would you do something retarded if I tried convincing you?
@@tetraxis3011The client has as much responsibility as their attorney
@@scarecrown7s Legally yes, but many modern attorneys do this, they exploit clients to create such lawsuits.
I can guarantee you the victim wasn't laying in her hospital bed thinking, "I want to sue the manufacturers of the guns and gun parts in that asshole's safe at home." This kind of logic can only come from the mind of a lawyer and/or politician and I'm sure they pitched it to her as, "Look, this won't cost you anything, but if we win, you could get a few million."
Nothing screams holding the actors accountable like suing minimum wage social media marketing interns! You get em Katie!
This kind of frivolous lawsuit should be criminal.
lawsuit review turned into gun meme review... about spit out some good banquet. dang my dude, got to love it lolol
This is so ridiculous! I hate how the gun grabbers have so many people thinking everyone is going to die from a gun. End this crap now!
The attorney who filed this did not think this through the companies they are suing combined have enough money and attorneys to countersue them into oblivion.
Better that they get censured by their state’s board. If there’s a lawsuit, they’re getting paid and this shotgun monkey is all about the cheddar to utter disregard of what’s reasonable.
Most likely the attorneys are funded by some leftwing activist group with Bloomberg money.
You mentioned the UA-cam unsubscribe thing and i actually had that happen to me, like wtf! I re-subscribed...
Attorneys should need to have frivolous lawsuit insurance and be on the hook for filing frivolous lawsuits.
You’d be surprised how many Europeans dream of owning unregistered machine guns.
Exactly. Europeans are based and want what the Yanks have, especially when our governments are fucked.
🙋♂️
Or just owning any sort of gun without needing to be a hunter, sport shooter or collector. Here in Germany, self-defence is not a valid reason to own a gun unless a court has recognised that you are especially endangered.
So do Americans lmao
@@lonelystrategosYou'd think Germany would be well aware of the danger in letting bureaucrats dictate the rights of its citizens. It's almost like there was a tyrannical government not too long ago that disarmed the undesirables and then systemically exterminated them. Surely THAT could never happen......again. Right?
As someone from the UK, it's nice to hear someone from the US explain the UK knife crime to US gun crime ratio. I've had this argument with so many people from both sides of the pond, it's real good to hear someone knows the truth of it. Keep fighting the cause Brandon, I wish I had the rights you guys have. Sending much love and light from over the pond, I sincerely hope you make it x
LOL are you serious ?? He completely left out handguns which is where 90% of the shootings come from in the United States.
Not really, because its an apples to oranges comparison, 100% of UK fatal stabbings verus just 3% of US fatal shootings or "gun murders and non-negligent manslaughter". The rifle only part is due to these are the statistics relevant to the story and historically the anti gun lobby in the US has always gotten a raging hardon about assault rifles when they arent any where near as much of an issue as they make out. half (if not more) the time they dont have a clue what they are talking about, the whole barrel shroud debacle live tv interview from a few years back is 1 hilarious example of this
Yea annually 300-350 people a year die from all rifles in the US. We have 330+ million people in the US. You'd think if it was a problem the number would be much higher.
Thats's one thing so many europeans like to throw at us but the second we acknowledge their equivalent of crime stats they gaslight it saying its not as serious as firearms. I have no clue why the thinking is like that.
@@bluetumblr LOL yeah I am. Think about how many people there are in the UK vs the US, then multiply the UK's statistics to match the US's population. Its not until you do that part that you see clearly. But hey, everyone's entitled to their own opinions lol 😉
I never noticed the jumpy zoom in our cuts before. I almost got sick
Man that tac pack should have all of the companies getting sued in it 🤣
It’s not the gun itself that makes a gun dangerous, it’s person using it and their intentions with it
False, my 12 gauge once fell off my sofa and bruised my toe.
@@JamesChurchill3 If only there was somewhere else to store a 12 gauge.
How about a sig?
@@zuzusuperfly8363 But it was watching TV.
It's like expecting road accidents to reduce by going after VW, GM and Toyota.
My uncle swallowed a spoon. He is now suing all manufacturers of silwerware, including silver mines. Way to go Uncle Joe!
The lawyers did a line of blow.
I think that you're right about that "unpaid intern".
The plaintiff probably came to the law firm, who examined her claims, and immediately thought, "No f*ing way"! But revenue is revenue, so they gave it to their Dufus, who wrote up what got filed, they billed her the $2,500.00 + for their "labor", and started an office pool as to how long it would take for a judge to toss the entire case out on its ear. Which I'm pretty sure is gonna happen pretty quickly...
The lawsuit needs to be thrown out and fine those that even wasted the courts time with it.
This is like suing the company that tiled your bathroom for getting a cavity
This whole suit not only should be tossed, but the client and lawyer that filed it should both be liable for all the defendants legal fees
Yeah they keep doing suits like this because nobody holds the actual lawyers accountable, they know these are BS suits but take a shot at the dark anyway in case they hit bullseye.
If lawyers were held accountable and blacklisted by everyone even then nobody's gonna do it anymore.
When they lose the case, that loss will lead to possibly less clients, right?
In other words, the risk would be such that the off-chance of a bullseye isn't worth it.
Just the lawyer. I doubt the plantif actually wanted to file and was manipulated into doing it.
@@xDRAMx Well if that's the case the client needs to grow a backbone
No, the lawyer cannot be sued for the client's decisions. The lawyer did not recommend anything illegal and they did what they did in the best interest of their client, as they are supposed to.
Any less than that is even possible grounds for a lawsuit against the lawyer for incompetence.
@@rompevuevitos222 Actually, at the very least they accepted an obvious BS lawsuit, although in all likelihood they actually encouraged the suit.
Lawyers don't need to accept clients or specific suits, so when they willingly get involved in garbage lawsuits, they should be as liable, if not more so, than their clients, as they know better
Daniel Defense: Wishes everyone a safe Halloween
Lawyer: "And I took that personally"
