An Ohio jury ruled against a prestigious Wyoming gun manufacturer this week and awarded damages to an Ohio man who lost his right leg in a firearm accident in Albany County four years ago. Robert Taylor of Adamsville, Ohio, was awarded $600,000 in damages Thursday against Star Valley gun manufacturer Freedom Arms Inc. following a jury trial, said Taylor's lead counsel, Kent Spence of Jackson. The jury found unanimously that there was a defect in the design of the product, Spence said in a phone interview. He said the jury was also unanimous in determining the defect in the design was the "proximate cause" of the injury to Taylor. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
