Reply to comment by MeatsimPD in DOJ sues pharma giant AmerisourceBergen Corp. for allegedly helping to fuel the opioid epidemic by alwaysrm4hope

Who assumes that about guns? The US is the largest market for guns in the whole world, with dozens of domestic producers. Sounds like you just made something up to provide a comparison. Maybe a couple hundreds of idiots but the general public doesn't assume guns in gun stores are smuggled from Mexico.

Most people don't realize that nearly every gun used in a crime was legally produced and sold by it's manufacture or reseller when its first sold to the general public.

America has a serious problem with companies that produce things that are too often used to commit crime or cause harm. I'd place big pharma, health insurance providers, and gun manufacturers in that category of companies designed to profit from things that too often just make people's lives worse

"Most" people think the guns with Glock and Colt stamped on them were made illegally. 🙄 Sure they do. You're spouting common knowledge as if it is some rare secret when the only people who think America is full of illegally produced weapons are 14 year old swedes during their first week on the Internet.

These people that you think are "most" Americans are probably less than 5% of the population, the same 5% you can convince that lavender oil can cure cancer or the the moon is fake or any other crazy thing that is completely ridiculous.
