Bloomberg group being sued for their lies

Post by VMI77 »

A Rutland County gun dealer said he has retained a Connecticut lawyer to pursue possible claims against a national gun safety group that conducted a recent sting operation for illegal gun purchases in Vermont.

…Richards said he believes Everytown misappropriated his firm’s logo for its report and defamed him as the company’s owner. The pictures of guns with watermarks showing the Mount Holly business could not be found on the website report late this week.

The Everytown report was false by characterizing both Crossfire and Richards “as vehicles for the unlicensed sale of firearms to felons, fugitives from justice, domestic violence abusers, and other unspecified criminals,” a news release said.

Richards said he and Crossfire comply with all federal and state laws pertaining to firearms.

Multiple attempts by the Burlington Free Press to reach an Everytown spokesman on Friday were unsuccessful.

Excellent. There can't be enough negative events affecting that lousy bum Bloomberg. I hope he gets a wild jury that awards him record amounts.
It's fine if you disagree. I can't force you to be correct.

His attorney should get a change of venue and get the case moved to Texas. That record amount could be realized then. :mrgreen:
