NY bill would require a criminal history background check for the purchase of a 3D printer::Requires a criminal history background check for the purchase of a three-dimensional printer capable of creating firearms; prohibits sale to a person who would be disqualified on the basis of criminal history from being granted a license to possess a firearm.
These types of gun control laws seem like they are less about guns and more about control. I don’t like it.
lol wasn’t the first gun law in America enacted to keep Black Americans from buying or possessing firearms?
Yup. In California, in fact. By a Republican governor named Ronald Reagan.
With all the wonderful things 3d printers can do they chose to focus on one thing. Effectively removing rights from people who never got to exercise them.
There’s a certain section of Democrats for whom as soon as you say “guns” they turn off their brains and vote for whatever they’re told to.
Much like “immigrants” or any number of right wing triggers. There’s fewer of them on the left but they work the same way.
I just wanna say, agreed. But also if you go far enough left you get your guns back.
There’s not that many people that far left, and no one in power.
