Gun Makers Admit That Mass Shootings Are Great For Business

[GoLeft TV]

In the days following the tragic shooting in San Bernardino, California, stocks for gun manufacturer Smith & Wesson soared, which follows the continuous pattern of gun sales skyrocketing after mass shootings in America. So do gun manufacturers really even care how their guns are being used?

Ring of Fire’s Mike Papantonio and Farron Cousins discuss this.

1. Hey gungeon people better come out of hiding and tell us how

you all need those guns to hunt deer or defend yourself in case a truck load of terrorists invade your home..

2. I think it is the call for bans & confiscation accompanying shootings which increase business.

Of course, folks will do what they want with no regard as to "how their rhetoric is being used."

It is curious that one of the chief arguments of banner/confiscators is "gun proliferation" is contributing to "gun crime." Yet.......

3. A gun manufacturing company's job is to make guns.

A gun shop owners job is to sell guns legally. That is the bottom line.

5. Right you are yeoman

Just like the CEO of Turing Pharma., who was asking $750 per dose of Daraprim.
He's not obliged to be nice (i.e., smacks of socialism) and sell it for much less; he can if he wants to, but there is no law that says he must.

As much as I dislike what guns are doing to the U.S., our system (of which we continually boast) allows the NRA and Turing to do exactly what they do.

It's called free market capitalism, and it applies to all U.S. companies or it applies to none.
