The Brady campaign sued Lucky Gunner, attempting to "put them out of business".. [View all]

The judge made this statement in his ruling:

"It is apparent that this case was filed to pursue the political purposes of the Brady Center and, given the failure to present any cognizable legal claim, bringing these defendants [Lucky Gunner] into the Colorado court... appears to be more of an opportunity to propagandize the public and stigmatize the defendants than to obtain a court order."

So they naturally lost, and not only did they lose, they lost big, and they are appealing the case to a higher court too loose some more.. Now the Lucky Gunner, is going to donate 100% percent of the "Brady" money back into gun rights advocacy groups, and they have a poll on their website allowing visitors to vote to whom should they donate the Brady Campaign's money too..

It amazes me how one side, can so turn it around, and use the other side's own money against them.

You would make quite a lawyer. Try taking that argument into court. NaturalHigh Jul 2015 #49

In a court not presided over by a RW gun nut Judge with RW gun nut laws, of course it is the most irrefutable argument Fred Sanders Jul 2015 #53
