On one hand, the lawsuit seems nonsensical. OTOH, if a jury decided to side with individuals suing a major companies like Activision regardless of the specifics of the case, I certainly wouldn't blame them.

I admire your optimism, but that kind of case wouldn't go the way you hope. Specifics are important. These people are using a tragedy to advance an unrelated agenda.

This isn't "the enemy of my enemy". It wouldn't at all be a reflection on capitalism... it would instead be used entirely in opposition to free speech, gun control and general common sense.
