With all the wonderful things 3d printers can do they chose to focus on one thing. Effectively removing rights from people who never got to exercise them.

There's a certain section of Democrats for whom as soon as you say "guns" they turn off their brains and vote for whatever they're told to.

Much like "immigrants" or any number of right wing triggers. There's fewer of them on the left but they work the same way.
