Great podcast on that Uvalde mass shooting lawsuit against Activision (Call of Duty), Remington, and Instagram.
#DanielDefense
Families of children who were killed in the 2022 #Uvalde mass shooting
have ⭐️filed wrongful death lawsuits ⭐️accusing Instagram, game maker Activision and weapons manufacturer Daniel Defense of
🔥enabling the massacre.🔥
The suits were filed on the second anniversary of the school shooting,
in which 🔸19 children and two teachers were killed, 🔸
and accuse the “unholy trinity” of
#Instagram, #CallOfDuty, and #DanielDefense
of💥 “working together to convert alienated teenage boys into mass shooters”.💥
👉“There is a direct line between the conduct of these companies and the Uvalde shooting,” said Josh Koskoff, a partner at Koskoff, Koskoff & Bieder and an attorney for the families.
#NotOneMore #GunViolencce
Uvalde parents are suing gunmaker, Meta and ‘Call of Duty’ manufacturer
The lawyer who won a record-setting settlement for #SandyHook families announced
💪two new lawsuits Friday on behalf of
#Uvalde school shooting victims
targeting
⭐️the manufacturer of the AR-15 style weapon used in the attack,
⭐️as well as the publisher of “Call of Duty"
⭐️and social media giant Meta.
The lawsuits against
🔥#DanielDefense, known for their high-end rifles,
🔥#Activision, the manufacturer of first-person shooter game “Call of Duty,” and
🔥#Meta, the parent company of Facebook,
may be the first of their kind to
👍connect aggressive firearms marketing tactics on social media and gaming platforms to the actions of a mass shooter.💪🏽
The complaints contend the three companies 💥are responsible for “grooming” a generation of “socially vulnerable” young men 💥radicalized to live out violent video game fantasies in the real world with easily accessible weapons of war.
One of those men, the legal team argues, was Robb Elementary shooter Salvador Ramos.
The lawsuits allege
👉 Meta and Activision "knowingly exposed the Shooter to the weapon, conditioned him to see it as the solution to his problems, and trained him to use it.”

@uspolitics If shooting children is ok with #gop politicians perhaps they will volunteer to be targets at an empty elementary school where they’re hunted down by people who’ll pay for the privilege? In fact, add the owners of #Colt, #DanielDefense & the rest. Oh, they have to be unarmed just like their child victims are.

@heidilifeldman For a man in a low income job with absolutely little to no autonomy owning a gun like an #ar15 gives him an unlimited sense of power. It’s a con game. While he’s satisfied he can prevent his house from being robbed, #gop , #nra, #kleptocrats, bankers & #bigbusiness are robbing him blind & #foxnews makes sure he blames the poor instead.
