Authorities Worry 3-D Printers May Undermine Europe’s Gun Laws by GEORGI KANTCHEV

Okay I don’t even know where to start with this one. First, I’ll begin with the 3-D printers. I didn’t even know they existed really. Call it ignorance or just not believing. I have seen something like on CSI: NY when they try detecting the shape of a murder weapon or something related to that but never would I have imagined that the public could have such technology so easily. Second, now that some loon posted a recipe for disaster online, people have directions on how to print guns out in the three dimensional form. This means that anyone can make a lethal gun with just a 3-D printer. This is not just France and the United States but rather all over the world technology. My third and final point ends off in as a positive one. Although, like illegal downloading of music online, making this gun printer illegal won’t stop much of this action, someone who posted on RepRap forum, which is one of the biggest 3-D-printing online communities, said that it isn’t all that effective. He compares it to “building a car out of cheese, it won’t work”. That seems to calm things down, only if someone more reliable were to agree. Good luck Europe, good luck Earth.
