Not saying his name doesn't change anything. Ignoring history and refusing to know it has terrible results. Next we'll be calling him "he who shall not be named". It's almost as bad as those people in Austria wetting themselves because a bell in a tower still has an inscription talking about...
I bet she wets her pants starting her car every day. Just think of all the little children she might run over, or the gas station she might collide with and blow up!
From another engineer who understands what you're saying, thank you for posting this. Ignorance makes people think lots of things, and this is just one of them. Just because computers became cheap and viable doesn't meant 3d printing will be. Think about it this way, bridgeports haven't...
This, no one here will ever be making these things unless they have a 100K+ for a machine. At that price just buy some old mill/lathe equip and make something real. This is making a point only, real prints for real guns are already out there and have been for a very very long time.
Listening to the testimony in RI tonight, I took out my copy of the Federalist Papers. It never ceases to amaze me how intelligent the founders really were. In fact, they were able to predict what has happened up until today:

We don't need them, along with 80% of the military infrastructure we have. Our military is sized and geared for invading and "democracy building", not mainland defense. Let's go back to doing just mainland defense, with a big bowl of popcorn to watch what happens over there. No one can touch...
No militarization is needed, one or two officers with scoped bolt action rifles could have taken care of the situation easily at that range. They would just need some basic marksmanship experience. It wasn't even 100 yards if what I read was correct.
What is interesting is that the constitution never permitted slavery in the first place. The problem was people as a whole not recognizing some people as humans with equal rights. The constitution never prohibited women from voting either. And it certainly doesn't prohibit gay marriage...
Sorry, but fail. For police, if they can't safely engage a target they shouldn't be doing it at all. The only exception should be if they can't retreat. Also: if you're aiming down the street at someone, and there are bullet holes in 2nd story apartments off the side of the street, you're...
