Which is funny, because that's definitely a more recent thing

There was an older episode where they decided to charge the owner of a gun company with manslaughter because he knew their top seller could easily be modified to be fully automatic and some Chud shot up a Woman's March for Peace with one

The jury ended up convicting him, but then the judge was like "No, WTF, I'm the judge and I say this bird ain't gonna fly", which is a far more realistic outcome than anything they're doing today
