Glock does NOT SELL "Switches"...
Glock didn’t even invent the switch, this lawsuit is a joke
Yes but now since the legal system is so broke that the Crumbleys got charged with their son's murder, the guilt by association fallacy has taken hold in our society. Either we put a stop to this now, or they will continue to come up with faulty guilty verdicts.
They shouldn't sell to Democrats or those who vote for them. either..
@@jungo3747 came to say this lol
The city acknowledges in the suit that they know Glock doesn’t produce the switches.. their argument is that Glock makes their pistols too easily converted using that piece?? Some dumb shit like that
Chicago should sue Chicago for being Chicago. That seems more appropriate for them.
Given a very long History of Corruption in Chicago, including many recent Politician being indicted, I make sense that this is where they should start if they want to stop crime.
Wait so does that mean every car manufacturer now gets to get sued because it's easy for a drunk driver to just take them for a ride or to speed with the car??? I can't man... I can't
My thoughts exactly
Like this is so close to the conversation me n my dad just had its hilarious im glad im not the only person who thinks this IMMEDIATELY 😂
Yep, everything
Simple question. If someone gave YOU a switch, would YOUR neighborhood be reduced to ash within a week? Why not? I don't think this issue is related to firearms whatsoever. This violence is a symptom. A cough is not an illness, but it lets you know one is present.
Only if they can’t blame a black criminal
They need to sue the atf, fbi, border patrol, and the executive branch of the United States government.
Ah yes, Glock is responsible for illegal modifications criminals make to their guns. And Honda is responsible for the 750 horsepower shitbox makin “weed whacker through a bullhorn” noises on my street at midnight going 80 in a 30
Last night I thought some punk was ripping down my street. Turned out my neighbors Prius got its catalytic converter stolen while at work.
I'm stuck on the illegal modification part. You give away too much liberty.
@isaakjunkeer785 If they would sue manufacturers of catalytic converters maybe the thefts would stop.
Just like how law abiding citizens are responsible for the actions of criminals.
Another bogus and ridiculous lawsuit. Courts should throw this out immediately.
“Cost as little as $20..” lol
Courts should demand glock Black list Illnois.
@@sheilaolfieway1885 Glock should not supply anymore Glock firearms and parts to law enforcement!!
@@sheilaolfieway1885 I don't know if Glock can legally refuse to supply the Illinois government but it should be considered.
@@genericdude6551 it's the same as closing down a store in a location that's not making money due to shoplifting, though California is even trying to stop that.... We'lll see how that works. I mean what is Illinois gonna do? sue them? if they get sued either way... might as well do something.
Eric looks like he's slowly transforming into Macho Man Randy Savage
Well as the man himself said: "The CREEEEAAAM ALWAYS RISES TO THA TOP!"
OOOHH YEAHHHH!!!
Chicago suing Glock, but not suing Jorge Leon inventor of the Glock Switch?
I’m starting to think they have anterior motives!
@@aelfwealld I doubt it, but probably ulterior motives.
@@Gideon_Judges6 Haha yes, of course. It was a typo. But, you never know! I wouldn’t put it past them to have anterior motives as well!
Yeah the European dude.
@Sol_Rosenberg Mr Rosenberg, do you need an appointment? Our office is at 30 E. 60th St.
Machine guns should be less than 10,000
Machine guns should be less than 1,000
Come to switzerland fullauto are some times cheaper then semi autos😅 we can have the glock 18 for around 1500$😄
You found a pre 1986 machine gun for 10k?!! Where?!! I’ll buy 10!
Police and govt are protected from lawsuits but peasants are not
Exactly
You can't get money by suing peasants.
As I understand it, the _switches_ are not a Glock product.. how is it their problem?
Hip Hip Hooray, Eric!! Finally, someone who speaks out on the source of the gun violence problem. 2A for all!!
Next, they will sue hardware companies for making drills that can drill a third hole in AR lowers lol
Thanks for keeping them short & sweet!
I'm not exactly surprised that a place colloquially known as Chiraq would sue Glock instead of, you know, actually dealing with the criminals in the first place. If they'd had any common sense they wouldn't have had these issues in the first place.
What would one expect after having a Mayor who looks like Beetlejuice and let’s that south side population go rampant. She should be indicted for failing to curtail criminal activity and placing some liberal judges in the court system.
They don't own or make switches 😂
They do , but they're not for sale on Amazon.
Everybody should sue Chicago for damages and injuries due to potholes in the streets
I hear you, i made a similar comment...😂...pothole capital of the world
RIP Barry 4/12/2014 I miss him
I haven't seen an IV8888 video in a min, but I'm digging the glasses brother lol
How can anyone sue a company for an alteration that can be done to their product??
They can because our justice system has gone full corrupt.
At this point … every ridiculous brainfart seems possible. It’s just sad.
same way allergy medication gets regulated because its alternative uses
Suing someone with deep pockets just to pander to your political base is much easier than fixing the underlying issues.
And there's never a law a criminal obeys
I think the argument could be made that these auto sears have saved lives
Nailed it.🔥
Wonder what barry would say about this
Government doing government things. Act accordingly, gents 😂
The craziest part to me is that Glock has already attempted to deter this with how the backplate is designed on the Gen 5
Simple question. If someone gave YOU (yes you reading) a switch, would YOUR neighborhood be reduced to ash within a week? Why not? I dont think this issue is related to firearms whatsoever. It is a symptom. A cough is not an illness, but it lets you know one is present.
Same S***, Different Day with Illinois & Chicago.
Thanks
Like suing Ford over an aftermarket exhaust. I'd also say a fully automatic Glock is less dangerous than a half-competently aimed semi auto.
Leave it to librago to sue a company for something somebody else made for their product
Just like Kia being sued because people steal their cars. The crime is a feature, not a bug. It can very easily be addressed.
they're going to sue Spoon for making people fat next
Laws only exist to keep the honest people honest.
Well said.
According to the ATF, automatic weapons in any form are illegal, UNLESS you purchase a $200 tax stamp from them. Then, everything is swell.
You’re right. How come the atf won’t go after the people manufacturing these switches but they’ll go after some guy who purchased a frt legally
Under $20. I heading to my local gun shop right now.
I guess they gonna sue ford for all these car accidents next.
I would laugh at this 10 years ago, but what Ive watched this "justice system" do to a sitting and formerly sitting President, nothing surprises me anymore.
IraqV over here COOKING. Don’t EVER let this man leave the kitchen
Chicago....always winning through sound polices and good decision-making.
They "recovered " 1100 modified glocks. LOL .My neighbor just modified his steel bat and long kitchen knife.
Let’s sue automobile manufacturers who produce automatic transmissions next, for all the destruction they cause🙏
I'm not a gun expert, but this feels very, very wrong!
Go with your gut.
Holy shit I buy a can off GB a week ago, do all the paper work on Thursday with my guy, there were beer cousies in the box, Sunday today, I look at those cousies and it just dawns on me you guys sold me the can haha. 🤙🤙
Three things
1: The switch was invented by some dude in Venezuela and Glock has never made or sold a switch.
2: The NFA does not apply to criminals because of the GCA. The NFA's registration and tax requirements would force someone to self-incriminate as a felon with a gun.
3: Glock is the #1 gun for cops, including CPD, who required all recruits to have a Glock 17 or Glock 19 in 2008.
The MN Attorney General Keith Ellison is suing Glock too for the same thing. Instead of going after those who commit crimes with guns like those thugs in his son Jeremiah's Ward (he's a City Councilman in North Minneapolis where a lot of gang violence happens) he goes after a company that isn't making auto sears. Another thing Ellison is doing is suing the car manufacturers of the most popular cars stolen in Minneapolis. Keith Ellison is a piece of work. When he was still the Minneapolis US Rep (prior to Rep Ilhan Omar) he beat up his girlfriend and was never investigated for it. He was the co-DNC Chair and was running for MN AG then. His son Jeremiah ran interference for him and made sure Minneapolis PD didn't investigate him.
My bestfriend was murdered back home, in Whiting Indiana(right over the border to Indiana, it touches Chicago), at 15. He was shot 28 times by two gangbanging teenagers, because he refused to join their gang, they came to beat him up, and he beat both of them up instead in defense. One had a Tec-9, and another had a Mac(I can't recall if 10 or 11). They didn't care about the law. Suing Glock for something it doesn't even make, and because they don't make it harder to put a sear in, is stupid
I love how everyday Eric is slowly transforming into Melvin from GTA5
The switches aren't made by glock, qnd are illegal under NFA. So how is glock liable?
Remember, in Minecraft you can buy JB weld, a nail, and see the incognito switch measurements online and put a plan together.
I’ve seen video of an “equipped” Glock - they are almost impossible to handle
next they will sue dodge over inersection and streat take overs
It’s easy to enforce the law with people who respect it.
That's like suing Komatsu over the killdozer.
I agree with your position. That being said, when you look at existing US laws, they are readily convertible to full auto. They have a leg to stand on in court, but it’s an awful money-grab.
Throw a link in the description for those dope glasses you're wearing, big dog.
Almost EVERY American w/ a legal fully auto machine gun, has NEVER used it for a crime.
TRIGGERED LMAO
This is like blaming cars for drunk driving.
I hope those are shooting glasses and not some new daily Dahmer glasses!😂
I'm gonna write Chicago on something nefarious and sue the city
So when's the Boston tea party?
I may not be first, but at least I'm not as late as the report on this news.
Boooo Chicago city hall..... but also Eric's '80s glasses are hilarious. I gotta buy a pair.
Im suing walmart for americas health problem as they offer food at low costs.
2A stance is perfect. Way I see it, if one person gets it, we all get it.
Suing Glock for a product they didn’t make is wild work
Chicago suing Glock because criminals misused their products would be like if I sued Toyota because someone tried to purposefully run me over with their Toyota Camry. It’s total nonsense.
I swear, sending kids to public schools these days makes them dumber.
What if i buy an auto sear with a adams prepaid visa card? Lol the irony it feels like
Don't get why "shall NOT be INFRINGED" is so difficult to understand?
It’s like suing Red Bull because people mix it with vodka.
Glock has never made Auto Sears for their own pistols , How can you sue them for someone else modifying their weapons??
Why sue glock and not the manufacturer of the switch?
Sounds like they are commonplace in Chicago….maybe this is the thing that breaks the NFA
Why would Chicago sue Glock like they care about the lost lives ? Also what they gonna do with the money if they were to win ?
In My Opinion ... A Glock Auto-Sear is like a Bump Stock, you can shoot fast, you just can reliable hit anything?
This is like suing a fertilizer company because it was used to make a bomb same thing
Bravo, sir. Absolutely on point.
I thought they were suing the government for infringement of the right to keep and bear arms. 😂😂😂
I find it convenient they decide to do this just a few months after Glock founder Gaston Glock passes away 🤔
Absolutely ridiculous. 100% Eric!
So are the cops going to give up their glocks ?
Unrelated, but no more “5 Gun” videos? 👀
Years ago that’s why I subscribed lol
More on the way!
So glock sells guns legally in the USA right? So the after the 1986 deal glock still imports over 1100 switches. Man I don't think so.
The auto seer probably saves lives. Gangsters running out of ammo, in a confined target area limits how much you can hit.
Glock should counter sue that the prohibition on full auto sears violates the 2nd amendment
Yayyyyyy tin foil hat time🎉🎉🎉
Lol im glad that was addressed
This kind of garbage needs to be stopped immediately.. glock does not build or sell the switch.
They might as well sue Colt for making AR 15s auto sear comparable
A blind man could have seen this one coming 100m away.
*EFFIN HUH?!*
I got poisoned in a drink sue the cup makers!
result: City of chcago and any agency working in Chicago is black listed from using glock or any subsidiaries of glock, Blame your polititians, thank you.
The reality is that automatic weapons are inherently not accurate. Most people couldn't hit the side of a barn with an automatic weapon
Tell them to sue the web site. or shut it down.Not sue another company into closing like Remington
This lawsuit is asinine and ludicrous!!! Should be dismissed immediately!!!!
