        They’re just following the template that’s unfortunately been set and no doubt there was a fucking lawyer at the funeral promising them millions in a lawsuit

        I once asked an American friend if a judge had ever rolled their eyes & thrown the case out & he said nope.

        The only person saying that was the person being sued which I feel like would be untrustworthy. I’ll rather wait until someone determines how much was put in but that’s just me.

        Question how old was the powder and shell. And was the tank cannon tested before the firing of it?

        So the man loaded his own shells using the powder provided. I reload for my hunting rifles. If I make a mistake how is the powder company at fault for my screw up?

        Maybe this is because he fired a weapon that was 75 years old...?
