The parents of a victim in the Aurora, Colorado shooting have filed a lawsuit accusing various websites of illegally selling bullets, armor and other equipment to alleged shooter James Holmes.

Filed today, the lawsuit alleges that the websites were negligent when they sold high capacity magazines, canisters of tear gas, body armor and other equipment to Holmes, who is accused of killing 12 people and injuring 58 in a Colorado movie theater in 2012.

“Two years ago when our daughter Jessica was murdered, and we first heard the details of the massacre, I asked my husband: ‘How can anyone order over 4,000 rounds of ammunition without raising any red flags? Why weren’t any questions asked of the person who bought all of this ammunition?” said Sandy Phillips. “As gun owners, parents, and citizens of this country, we hope that our lawsuit will spare other families the tragedy that we have gone through after the death of our beautiful daughter.”



I'm not certain but I think that the great majority of murderers don't buy several thousand rounds of ammo to prepare for a murder spree. I don't think suing the sellers of the ammo is going to save any lives at all. I think the motive here is money.



Buying 5000-10000 rounds of ammo to stock up for several months or a year of shooting is actually a completely normal activity. Why try to make it into something suspect?
