Chicago’s expanded lawsuit against Glock misguided: Gun rights group

(The Center Square) – Chicago is expanding its lawsuit against gun manufacturer Glock, but a gun rights advocate says it’s misguided and likely unconstitutional.

Last year, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker enacted a measure allowing lawsuits against the firearms industry for allegedly making the community less safe. The National Shooting Sports Foundation challenged the law. The state said no one has been harmed and the case should be dismissed. A ruling is pending on whether to enjoin the law or dismiss the case.
