YouTube and Reddit are sued for allegedly enabling the racist mass shooting in Buffalo that left 10 dead::The complementary lawsuits claim that the massacre in 2022 was made possible by tech giants, a local gun shop, and the gunman’s parents.

    This is grieving family’s who are vindictive.

    I’d blame it on the lawyers.

    They dont care who pays, but somebody has to pay in their eyes. Sadly on the merits this case will die in court pretty fast and nobody is gonna see a dollar

    The family’s lawyer is getting paid either way.

      Yeah some families are vindictive but ALL lawyers are ready to press a case like this as long as they think they can win.

        If they think they can win it’s another matter, what I think is happening here is the lawyer is pushing for the case regardless, because they get paid regardless.
