If they can demonstrate the possibility that someone should/could be held responsible, they can sue.
It sounds stupid, but they indeed COULD sue the grandfather, if they can demonstrate the above. What they would be doing is suing the estate of the grandfather for damages.
They could indeed sue the police for allowing him to have the gun, as well as suing the gun manufacturer, and mebbe if they read this board and my well reasoned and rational logic ;) ::) they could sue the bullet manufacturer for causing death.
If you can demonstrate potential to a judge, you can sue....you'd be SURPRISED at how silly this can all get!
I think HITLER coulda got off if he was tried in our courts in this day and age :o
Shape D.:
If it was the officers issued gun they could sue the police department for one of their officers not properly keeping his gun safe while off duty.

The reports I've read say he had several guns. It's kind of hard to shoot 9 people with a revolver anyway... 6 chambers... 9 bullets.

--- Code: ---RED LAKE, Minnesota (CNN) -- A student authorities say killed seven people at his Minnesota high school first shot his grandfather and the man's girlfriend before taking his police-issued weapon, bulletproof vest and squad car to Red Lake Senior High School.

Perhaps they could sue the creators of The Constitution for giving us the right to bear arms ::)
