Anything to avoid having to actually address the systemic poverty and bigotry ingrained in the system that leads to violence...
From what I understand the "problem" as it's being framed in terms of ghost guns and inner city crime or whatever the buzzword is this year is not hobbyists running off a lower or frame for themselves. None of those guys in the hood and their switches are buying Bambus or building Vorons and suddenly turning into 3D printing gurus -- Someone, or several someones more likely, are deliberately mass manufacturing these things for sale to the criminals which is already thoroughly illegal. Find the gun runners and stomp on them. I thought you guys were supposed to have this big scary police force and surveillance apparatus?
It's mostly a bunch of little hood gunsmiths, making them and selling them to customers. It's literally the gun equivalent of an attic full of weed plants.
I’m a hobbyist 3D printer and I can barely get my minis to print half decently, never mind a functional firearm
California is cracking down hard on ghost guns right now... Its super important in LA. Its gotta be the single most biggest issue they are dealing with right at the very moment.
Ah. So I suppose that means California has successfully solved the skyrocketing cost of living and inflation, drought, rampant homelessness, and uncontrollable wildfires?
What do you mean fire? It's ghost guns running the show! Lol...not lol. More like WTF?
