A bill which would make adults liable for their firearms being accessed by children, passed the House Judiciary committee on Thursday with seven “yes” votes and six “no” votes. The prime sponsor of HB 1122, Rep. Ruth Kagi, D-Seattle, said this is the fourth time she has introduced the bill. She said this year, she wanted the bill to be much broader in scope than the previous versions, which just created penalties for children accessing firearms.

TO REMEMBER |
| As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. — Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
