        MORE: Pres. Trump tweeted this morning that he is "looking into 3-D Plastic Guns being sold to the public," adding that he "already spoke to NRA." The president said it "doesn't seem to make much sense!" He did not offer further details. http://abcn.ws/2LOZxRo

        I've seen to many ppl say things like it's just plastic. You do know it's not the same material as your plastic forks right? Dr's have already printed bones. This resin is strong enough to sustain the force & heat that comes from firing a weapon.

        A majority of the plastics used by 3d printers are ABS (legos) and PLA (soft combs). The plastics you are talking about are expensive. A weapon made out of plastic would have a short life. Though deadly, not as deadly as an AR15 or .45 cal. The Senators claims are overblown!

        I feel like there's a way to inform the public about what's going on without telling them "there's nothing that can be done! No one is safe! Everywhere is dangerous!" I don't think fear is a good angle. Honesty yes but not fear.

        WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!?!?! How is this different from any other gun? What, the perp is going to pass TSA, run into the bathroom and print this thing out? You're worried you can't track firearms. Why are you tracking firearms? How can tracking a firearm prevent a crime?

        Because a real gun has been quality controlled by gunsmiths and engineers. What's to stop someone from uploading purposefully backfiring designs? Amateurs are going to hurt themselves.

        Either way amateurs are building guns. That's not illegal. It's not illegal to make anything using a 3D printer. I'd be more worried about a knife getting printed. That's what can easily slip thru security.

        Fuck security, that’s not what he’s even talking about. But I forgot, more guns = safer populace. That’s why we have the most guns (and the most gun deaths)

        Must be music to the ears of terrorist groups, gun nuts, second amendment zealots, school murderers, and, of course, the NRA.

        You think people will stop at 3D printing guns? Next they'll print straws and then we're all good as dead.
