Writer can't hide his disdain for "lethal weapons," but does a good job of explaining the political and scientific aspects and where they collide. tl;dr version: DIY gun plans are, after a legal settlement with the Feds, generally legal to distribute online, and it's fairly easy to make your own, which just means technology is moving faster than regulation (and guns are bad).

Yeah how did that garbage the writer wrote get past an editor. But then again what else is new.
I also had to laugh when its so clear he was appalled at the blurring of the lines in the constitution. So let's see. in 1973 the Supreme court decided to make up a law and decide Abortion must be legal. Even when there is absolutely nothing in the US about that so called right. The party this writer belongs too has been blurring the edges forever to get what they want!
One more example of the Pot call the Kettle.... See it all the time these days!


Had to find the most unappealing picture as well. Somehow the press still doesn't get why for the most part most of us disdain and ridicule the press.
I can see in the near future be a so called journalist having the same kind of jokes that we used to make of lawyers.

The DOJ settles lawsuit over gun cad files. Defcad.com Cody Wilson. I noted a lot of anti gun bias in the article, but maybe that's my pro gun bias. I really liked the part about him building a library to get access to build specs for all military guns.

Forgive if this is old news. I didn't see a date of the settlement and haven't heard about this settlement before.

uh no, not your perception....the author is solidly hoplophobic

"before a political party with no will to rein in America’s gun death epidemic held control of Congress, the White House, and likely soon the Supreme Court"

Scientists are using journalists for experiments now. They’ve found out there are some things rats won’t do.

The feds just realized the cats out of the bag now. We all just need 3D printers and a small Cnc machine and we can have our own little gun factory. Kind of reminds me of the days before Israel became a nation when Jews in their kibbutz settlements were cranking out stens in people’s basements. All under the noses of the newly minted United Nations. I trust we all see the similarities here?

It's all fun and games until someone in the U.S. gets caught with a SMG he built in his basement with plans he found online. Then we'll see liberal heads exploding and calling for "moar lawz." Not that they stopped the criminals in the first place.
