The plaintiff worked in a shipyard. Apparently the respirator company was sued as the last man standing. The logic of the judges here escapes me. Instead of going after safe cribs, the CPSA should go after really defective judges.

The weapon is perfectly safe if it is left without a round in the chamber. Leaving a loaded, cocked weapon any place is stupidity. I’d like to see if there were any modifications to the trigger mechanism to give it a “hair trigger”.
