[Noisebridge-discuss] [SPAM] Re: California Lawmaker Wants 3-D Printers To Be Regulated

[LinkReincarnate]

Good luck on that...  Considering that they can be built in your basement
or garage with parts from the hardware store for 500 bucks...  Unless he
plans to keep a registry of every stepper motor ever sold it's a pipe
dream. Also having a registry still doesn't tell you WHAT FUCKING PRINTER
THE GUN WAS PRINTED ON.  So you still have no way to trace a gun to the
person who printed it.  Isn't this the same guy who kept trying to make
retailer workers pay a fine whenever little timmy got an m rated game?  How
does he keep getting reelected?  He's a fucking luddite.
