Can't remember another courtroom movie where the 'heroes' of the film do nothing but undermine the justice system to illegally sway things towards their own backwards ideology.
shareBecause guns (which go BANG and are designed to kill) were not being regulated in this movie, as heard in the testimony of the man who bought tons of guns with no back check.
Peanuts (which are tasty and NOT designed to kill) are food which some people happen to be allergic to...
Guns= man made, kill things.
Peanuts= food, nature made.
I'm not anti-gun, but your subject line is silly.
Untrue...actually the original poster has a valid point, but to really reflect the logic of this movie, someone would have to knowingly feed peanuts to someone with a deadly allergy, and then kill themselves...and then the victim's widow would apparently have a case against the farmer, so long as it can be established that peanut farmers are aware their products are sometimes used to hurt people.
The manufacture and initial distribution of the gun in this film were both totally within the law (that's why only the guy who sold the gun out of his trunk was arrested)...sorry, but complying with the law is all you can ask of ANYONE. It was a serious, fictional miscarriage of justice where the heroes were waaaaaaay more dispicable than the gun manufacturer or the lawful dealer.
If guns kill people, pencils misspell words.
