Cody Wilson Interview at Reason: Happiness Is a 3D Printed Gun

An anonymous reader writes "Cody Wilson details his conflict with the State Department over 3-D printable guns in this new interview with ReasonTV. In this video, he discusses how 3-D printing will render gun control laws obsolete and unenforceable; why Dark Wallet, his new crypto-currency, is much more subversive than Bitcoin; his legal defense, headed by Alan Gura (attorney in District of Columbia v. Heller and McDonald v. Chicago); and his forthcoming book about anarchy and the future."

They're already unenforcable -- against criminals, who steal them (both wholesale and retail, sometimes even from police evidence rooms) and illegally import them.

The NRA broken record.... If you repeat this enough, it still won't be true. Gun control laws are certainly enforceable and certainly enforced. Sure, there are always criminals who don't follow the laws here, but if they get caught they generally go to jail. And if the law abiding world makes it harder for criminals to get guns, then the criminal activity surrounding getting guns will end up with more criminals in jail.

People who spout this line act like they have first hand knowledge of criminals importing guns. If so, why haven't they gone to the police? Saying that gun control laws don't keep guns away from criminals is a cop out.

By the NRA fundamentalists' logic, we shouldn't have laws because criminals ignore laws anyway.
