>That is not true of the law. If a gun store sells someone a gun, and the store owners knew or should have known you intend to kill someone with it...they gun store is most certainly liable.
This is why literally the next line I say after the KYC/background check. Obviously if a guy sells a gun to someone without doing the proper checks they will be liable. Same if a dealer sells a car to someone without a license.
>Same with gun stores not being held liable for gun owners.
There may be background checks in place to ensure they aren't selling a car to someone that can't drive (Driver's license) or to make sure someone can own a gun (Background check), but once you pass the initial screening you are on your own for liability.

It has nothing to do with "proper checks", the background checks were all completed properly and the buyer passed them, but there was additional facts having nothing to do with background checks that created liability.
