Yesterday, in chat room, I had some pacifists wanting to shoot me 
because I disagreed with them on gun control. :-D

[FairfieldLife] Gun control? Yeah, right...

Here's an article for those who actually believe that it's possible to
control access to guns. As Marek so rightly pointed out, it's
controlling the murderous impulses that some put them to that is the
issue. Canada has the same percentage of guns per population that the US
does, but a third of its firearm-related deaths.

A gun enthusiast has managed to 'print' a weapon at home and
successfully fire it for the first time.

The man wrote in a blog post that he printed the lower receiver for a
.22 pistol.

Printing 3D objects is usually achieved through an automated machine 
which builds up objects in layers, often using plastic or another 
malleable material.

The gun part was made using ABS plastic and a Stratasys 3D printer, the
man claimed
 .

Only the lower receiver was printed, but The Next Web pointed out
  that this is the part of a weapon which the
American Gun Control Act counts as a firearm.


The man, named "HaveBlue" on the website, where he is listed as  coming
from Wisconsin, built the gun and assembled it, before firing  more than
200 rounds.

He then posted the design of the gun part on a publicly available
website for 3D objects.

He also tried to build a rifle with the part, but said that "feed and
extraction issues" meant he wasn't able to make it work.

"No, it did not blow up into a bazillion tiny plastic shards and maim me
for life," the man told the AR15 forum.

"I am sorry to have disappointed those of you who foretold doom and
gloom."

The man's project was welcomed by the gun enthusiasts on the forum,  who
said it would leave no "meaningful way to restrict and infringe on  the
private civilian ownership of modern firearms".

Another user wondered if the man's project would leave him in trouble
with the law.

"Maybe it's just me, but posting pictures of an operational lower 
reciever that doesn't have a serial numberThat just sounds like your
asking for the feds to pound on your door," he said.

"Either way, it's still pretty cool."

In a separate development, a man has demonstrated a 3D printer which can
fit into a briefcase.

Ben Heck, a famed tech hacker known for his work modifying games
consoles, unveiled the project.

The printer is just 5 inches thick and can fit in the overhead
compartment of an aeroplane.

[FairfieldLife] Gun control and politicians

[Xenophaneros Anartaxius]

Politicians seem to be avoiding actually talking about guns and rather spin 
around the subject talking of tragedy and unity, tip-toeing around the second 
amendment to the US Constitution. How to interpret this amendment for modern 
days seems to have everyone stymied.

For a look at the original item in the Bill of Rights here is an image of the 
fourth article in the original document passed by the US Congress before it was 
sent to the states for ratification. Ten of the twelve articles in the document 
were ratified, and two were rejected, and 'Article the Fourth' in this document 
became the second amendment.
