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."
3D printing, gun control and bitcoin in one thread.
Please excuse me for one moment. I'll be back with popcorn shortly.
SJW n. One who posts facts.
Cody is a gun nut, a pothead, and an anarchist. He is pro-crime, anti-police, anti-government. He wants everyone armed with every manner of illegal weaponry possible.
What's not to like?
Faster! Faster! Faster would be better!
They were. There were definite concerns about letting computing resources out to the hoi polloi.
Remember when encryption was considered 'military armaments?
Faster! Faster! Faster would be better!
Like the original Liberator pistol that the US dropped all over France, etc., the idea behind the new production 3d printed one is to allow you one or two shots, so you can aquire a "real" gun from someone else....
Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos
When printable guns become more feasible, it will be revealing what the NRA has to say about it. One one hand, you would think they would support this in the name of the Second Amendment and so on. I predict that the NRA will not be able to spit out the teat of gun manufacturers corporate money and will find some convoluted way to oppose private citizens making their own arms.
The problem with your theory is that there are more members of the NRA that are private citizens than those that are gun manufacturers. When you buy into the noise that the NRA are all about gun manufacturers you forget the millions of people that are gun owners many of which are members that contribute more money to the NRA than all manufacturers combined. The pundits on the left would have you brainwashed into thinking the NRA is all a front for gun manufacturers. Take a look at what happened in purple Colorado. Even liberal gun owners that previously supported the 2 democrats that were recalled over onerous anti-gun legislation voted them out on recall. So no, the NRA cannot tell millions of its own members that they should not have the right to exercise their first ammendment right in their home.
