Dealers do have the responsibility of conducting background checks on the persons to whom they sell firearms, but there is no reasonable expectation that they can gain complete insight into the mind and mental state of their clients. As far as I am concerned, the dealer should only be liable to be sued if they either did not properly comply with background check laws/guidelines or if there is substantial evidence to show that the client (who used the guns to cause violence) was acting in a way that can be deemed suspicious, but the dealer did not take action or deny the sale.
