U.S. Congress gives gun industry protection against lawsuits

Richard North Patterson's novel Balance of Power describes the power and machinations of the gun industry as represented by the NRA. In his novel the forces of good, represented by President Kerry Kilcannon, prevail ultimately over the lies, deceit and chicanery of the gun industry.

Today the U.S. Congress in real life passed a bill that will protect the gun industry from lawsuits brought by victims of crime involving firearms.It represents a triumph of the gun lobby over reason.Another reason not to live in the USA!
