Mexico鈥檚 landmark gun case reached the U.S. Supreme Court

Mexico鈥檚 landmark gun case reached the U.S. Supreme Court.聽Some 70% of weapons used in crimes inside Mexico are traced to the United States. Mexico argued that U.S. firearms manufacturers know their products are trafficked聽across the border聽, and profit from it. The high court ruled that an industry shield law protects gunmakers from the suit, but rejected arguments that the industry could never be blamed for damage caused by its guns in Mexico, opening the possibility that it could be held accountable in future cases. 鈥 Staff
