    If you fire a gun, you are 100% responsible for the bullet, full stop.

      Especially if the bullet doesn’t full stop into the target or a barrier behind it.

      What if you’re at a paid indoor range and your bullet goes through the back stop wall because the range cheaped out?

        If you’re moving the goalposts there, just move the lawsuit right over to the range.

        The difference is whether the shooter paid sufficient care and those are clear opposites

          Moving a goalpost? Triumph said 100% of the time the guy that shot the bullet is responsible for it. I was just pointing out how silly that could be.

        Really? That’s how you choose to debate? By inventing unrealistic scenarios that have likely never occured, or ever will occur? Wouldn’t an indoor firing range have regulations and code requirements that would keep a bullet from going through a wall and hitting someone outside?

        That’s like wondering if the rule would apply if an alien spaceship fired a space laser, and deflected the bullet to hit someone, would the shooter still be responsible?

        No, Skippy, in that case, probably not. You got me there, I guess you win the entire argument that ALL gun users are taught they they are 100% responsible for the path of their bullet.

      1oo% true. and yet… who would build a a base ball park right next to a gun range?! not saying they are at fault, but like …really? there must be something i don’t know, like was it an indoor range?
