…So the expectation is that a criminal organization would obviously print and build a gun, but they wouldn’t sidestep a law to illegally build a 3D printer from scratch to do it?
The guns are an excuse to kill Right-To-Repair, as well as small scale manufacturing. The big enshitification manufacturers lobbied for this.
Much the same as the ID laws are not about protecting children, but identifying Internet users
I the US, Buying a gun from some guy in an alley or a gun show, has always been a lot easier than printing one
I mean the idea “prevent people from 3D printing guns” is good. At least its heart is in the right spot. 3D printers make it much much easier to make a gun. It’s like what AI is doing to development, writing, and so on. Now people who didn’t know how to make a gun can do it quite easily with little to no skill.
However, the problem is always feasibility and privacy. Companies hide their plans from their employees by dividing up the work so that no one is the wiser. Circumventing this at the software level would be easy, just print the parts separately. If everything is tracked, that’s a huge breach in privacy.
These kinds of things only ultimately serve the surveillance apparatus.
Tracking who owns such a machine capable of printing a gun though🤔 Dunno… Not sure whether I’m against that. I could be convinced either way. We do need licenses to drive our rolling murder machines and not every 3D printer is capable of printing a functional gun.
3d printer can’t print any of the actual important parts of a gun.
This is an attack on right to repair. The guns were the Trojan horse, just like the ID laws used protecting the children for.
I’m not going to post it here, but you’re way behind dude. There are tutorials out there with every step required to print and operate 3D guns in all shapes and sizes. Sure, it requires a little extra sometimes, and some may be flimsy (one shot), but a shot might be all it takes.
And you can make one out of shit from a hardware store, but they’re not outlawing those. This is not about guns, it’s about repairability and planned obselescense.
What are you doing Mamdani!⸮
🤣Mayor’s not in charge of state laws
Right, his veto can be vetod…
Mayor’s can’t veto state laws. Mayor’s are not governors. They are not in charge of a state, they’re in charge of a city.
👌
Here we go with blaming people who have nothing to do with it.
You sure about that?
Thank you for linking an article that says nothing about 3D printing.
According to Breitbart News
LMAO. OK. All credibility lost.
I think you are lost. This thread is about regulating 3D printers because they can be used to make weapons. Mamdani has stated he wants to keep banning guns.
All he has to do is sign S9005B as soon as it gets Yayed. Do you perhaps think he’ll veto this?
You send me a right-wing, gun-nut article, then send me a video where Mamdani doesn’t say a word about “banning guns” but “gun control”, I don’t thinkAh… the right-wing trap. Good bye.
Comeback to apologize when it gets passed.
Here we go double comment.
Thanks. Deleted the other one.
