Getting rid of guns isn’t the solution, we have 3D printers allowing anyone to make a gun at home. Banning guns won’t stop crimimals from using them. Criminals don’t follow laws.
Plus mass shootings aren’t even relevant statistically as a cause of death, but heart disease and car accidents are but I don’t see anyone up in arms over banning McDonald’s or Ford. I will never support any kind of infringement on my gun rights, no red/yellow flag laws, no national background checks, no mag capacities. Democrats just need to stop treating every mass shooting as an excuse to limit our 2nd amendment rights even more.
Seriously…. STFU.
Sincerely, a guy whose been 3d printing almost half his life.
First, people are perfectly able to manufacture their own firearms without additive manufacturing of any stripe. Linking ghost guns to 3d printing is a red herring brought to you by technophobic morons and shit-tier journalism from a slow news day. You can buy the needed stuff at any big box hardware store, tools inlcuded, for less than a printer costs.
Secondly, while it is entirely possible to produce firearms with printers… the people who are able to do so, are completely capable of doing it the other way.
Third, 3d printing has a fully international community. Given that criminals exist in every nation; you’d see ghost guns…. Everywhere.
Finally, the vast majority of ghost guns were in fact legally manufactured, and either purchased through stupid-as-fuck private sale exemptions; using straw buyers; or were originally stolen.
So yes, improving gun control laws would in fact make a difference.
