6: Mikulski Amendment to Protect Lawsuit Brought by Victims of the DC-Area Snipers (108th Congress; 2004-02-26) S. 1805, the Gun Industry Legal Immunity bill. Senator Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) offered an amendment to ensure that victims could continue their lawsuit against the snipers, John Allen Muhammad and John Lee Malvo, who terrorized the nation with a string of random shootings in September and October 2002. A YES vote supported the Brady Campaign/Million Mom March position. The amendment was defeated by a vote of 40-56.

This blurb says it was "to ensure that victims could continue their lawsuit against the snipers". Didn't it have more to do with being able to sue Bullseye, the company that 'lost' the gun that they used?
