    I agree with My2hands... guys walking around with their guns in public are fools. And if I can be honest... to me it seems as if they are supplementing character weaknesses like confidence and strength.

    One way or another... they're weak. Pure and simple.
    I never said I would do it, I only carried concealed.  But if I wanted to then nobody, cetainly no govt, should have the ability to stop me or anyone else.
    I wish somehow the emotions and thoughts of someone who lost their child or parent to a gun toting moron could be temporarily transplanted into your brain for a day - aka empathy - so that you could understand better.
    Maybe some woman who wanted a firearm but was denied by some bureaucrat and then got raped or killed has some thoughts to share on the subject.
    When there are threads and news programs filled with stories about that happening so that such instances outweigh all the gun deaths, I will certainly pay attention to them.

    Well I do... I just don't know what can be done about it, which leaves me with very little to say. I guess someone obviously needs to make 3D printing a gun completely illegal across the board, first of all. After that, what's to be done about prevention? I have wondered if there is a way to make 3D printers so that they simply can't print a gun or gun parts. Surely someone can figure out a program or something to make that possible? And to make a law around that that prevents any slippery slope issues? Of course the people making the 3D printers would have to be on top of that, and legally obligated to do it. I'm sure then hackers will find ways to get around it, but it would certainly be better than nothing.

    They have been available, but now the code to print them is going to be legal to distribute online.  Guess we better ban 3D printers...

    That would be like banning all steel, aluminum, and plastic works as a means of gun control, lol.

    Exactly...would probably be an easier task than trying to ban guns, though, lol

    I read that yesterday and found it crazy and the next step in the underground gun culture completely taking off. Gun control will become much more difficult as the rise of the machines continues. All this talk about limiting AR-15's and mag sizes loses some significance, but is still important, at least at these initial stages.

    From the article below:

    Defense Distributed isn’t going to destroy gun control, and it’s certainly not going to decimate the gun industry. All of the legacy gun industry apparatus described above will still be there in the decades to come, mainly because governments will still buy their arms from established makers like LMT. But surrounding the government and civilian arms markets will be a brand new, homebrew, underground gun market where enthusiasts swap files on the dark web and test new firearms in their back yards.

    The homebrew gun revolution won’t create a million untraceable guns so much as it’ll create a hundreds of thousands of Karl Lewises — solitary geniuses who had a good idea, prototyped it, began making it and selling it in small batches, and ended up supplying a global arms market with new technology and products.

    In this respect, the future of guns looks a lot like the present of drugs. The dark web hasn’t hurt Big Pharma, much less destroyed it. Rather, it has expanded the reach of hobbyist drugmakers and small labs, and enabled a shadow world of pharmaceutical R&D that feeds transnational black and gray markets for everything from penis enlargement pills to synthetic opioids.

    Gun control efforts in this new reality will initially focus more on ammunition. Background checks for ammo purchases will move to more states, as policy makers try to limit civilian access to weapons in a world where controlling the guns themselves is impossible.

    I never said I would do it, I only carried concealed.  But if I wanted to then nobody, cetainly no govt, should have the ability to stop me or anyone else.
    I wish somehow the emotions and thoughts of someone who lost their child or parent to a gun toting moron could be temporarily transplanted into your brain for a day - aka empathy - so that you could understand better.
    Maybe some woman who wanted a firearm but was denied by some bureaucrat and then got raped or killed has some thoughts to share on the subject.
    When there are threads and news programs filled with stories about that happening so that such instances outweigh all the gun deaths, I will certainly pay attention to them.
    The two aren't even in the same hemisphere.

    Again... a feeble reach by a side of a discussion that has no teeth to gnash with.

    Be afraid, be very, very afraid.

    Remember the guy in Florida who was shot and killed by the “responsible” gun owner in the movie theater for talking on his cell phone during the previews? A CCW permit holder I believe. Everyday annoyances, who needs them?
    Brandishing a weapon over an argument does not make him responsible...
    The gun rights crowd wants you to believe that every legal gun buyer starts out as a "responsible" gun owner. Brandish? He shot and killed the guy. A retired police officer no less. Yup, more guns is definitely the solution. And for texting, not talking.

    All hyped up to watch a movie that will glorify the Navy Seals, guns and war.  Woot!

    BTW - the Killer was allowed to be released, but had to give up his guns.  (poor guy)  He has to wear an ankle bracelet, but can go to church (thank gods), store and doctor.  Florida is still fucked.

    The man he shot.

    Absurd he took someone’s life a family man the killer still gets to go to Church I hope the guilt becomes unbearable and he decides to walk off a cliff  !

    Guessing their isn't  an nra to worry about  in canada.....


    So how is banning legal guns in city going to stop people from getting legal guns?  Are they going to frisk everyone coming back to city. Illegal guns are the problem.  The gun used in the Toronto attack was stolen in Saskatchewan in a break and enter.   This is a knee jerk reaction.  Canada has some the toughest hand gun laws anywhere...

    I had posted about this a few days ago.

    I want to be able to own an AR-15 but not like this.

    Not for this at all.

    Read up a little on why the person started putting this out there.  It makes quite a bit of sense actually. I do not agree with everyone 3D printing their own firearms, but it does show the flaws with trying to prohibit firearms or create databases of ownership.

    How so?  These guns are still illegal to own, they need to have a certain amount of metal in them to be detectable.  And the article you cited refers to the Breitbart interpretation of a settlement.  There doesn't appear to be a court ruling or precedent set here.

    Keep pushing your crazy 'bye bye gun control' dreams though.  Eventually our country will reach a breaking point and when it comes time to make serious changes about how our society treats guns; the likes of you won't be invited to the conversation.  Your version of reality is not only crazy, it's unsustainable.

    I look forward to the faux outrage when a plane full of passengers is shot up at 42,000 feet or there's a mass shooting at an event with metal detectors or an elected representative is shot and killed because some deranged person or terrorist made a 3D printed gun and bypassed security measures. Of course the solution will be more "good" guys with guns. Or strip searching everyone. Yea, that's the society I want to live in.

    I work with a woman who still lives with her parents and she's 35, lol. She doesn't even pay rent or any bills. She just spends her salary on travel and clothes.

    With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata
