Imagine the taxes! The taxes! They can't outlaw them, they can tax them!
Young man, why are you in jail?
I did not pay my 3D printer taxes.
Whoa! That seems serious. What did you print?
I made a tea cup for my sisters tea dolly tea set. She needed another service. How was I to know there was a $1/gram tax on all 3D printed objects? If I had known that I would not have instagrammed my work. That is how they got me. They subpoena'd instagram for my records after they saw my pictures. Now I will be in jail for 6 months. Bastards, they took my printer. It'll take me three months lunch money to save up enough to build another.

*L* Have you see the documentary on those guns? Takes a bold man to put a cartridges in one of those and fire it. Looked positively scary to me. I like my fingers too much. Id rather have an ole fashioned zip gun like kids used too make back in the fifties. And, you could buy a lot of good guns for what a 3-D printer costs. Them things are expensive!....Mel

Couple things about 3d printers. They are already cheaper than you think and a round of early patents are set to expire in the next 12 months. There are a series of small yet well funded companies set to jump in as soon as they can. Prices will drop and in particular laser sintering machines will make solid weapons. Further, we don't have to print the entire weapon, just the part that is "the gun" for an AR-15 that is the lower receiver and that is a low stress part. The rest of the weapon can be purchased freely on the open market in 50 states because those parts are not "a gun". BTW, somebody had to make the first steel gun, and it took some faith for those pioneers to pull the trigger too. Nothing new there!

It's gona take big balls to shoot my 12ga pipe gun too. I'll give it to my marine freind when he's drunk this wknd and hide behind the 4 wheeler when he shoots it.
Better learn how to 3d print gun powder you are going to be shooting a dam thing without it.
This technology is out of the bag. I think the gov't will try and control, tax etc but fact of the matter is the idea is genius but the machine could be built by any good tech guy. That's a problem for them. And of course instead of just going away they'll just screw everything up as usual.

Or they'll nuke south carolina blame Tehran and lock down the nation under martial law, indefinitely.
Constitution? It's already gone.
