This act was put in place for one purpose....people like Mike Bloomberg spending mom and pop gun stores and small manufacturerers broke.....

There are similar rules for tobacco companies, and other industries. They are not designed to protect anyone from wrong doing, they are to protect legal product manufacturerers from frivolous law suits. Usually rules about recovery of costs and attorney fees from the plaintiff if they loose, keep people from filing frivolous suits.. ...on some products others leverage the system as blackmail...as with this issue....
