I understand the intent, but feel that there are so many other loopholes that put much worse weapons on the street than a printer. Besides, my prints can barely sustain normal use, much less a bullet being fired from them. I would think that this is more of a risk to the person holding the gun than who it's pointing at.

I'm just waiting for him to get his first Texas property tax bill and realize he shat his pants, upped stakes, and ran away from one form of capitalist hellhole to another. Austin's about to hit a brick frickin' wall with all the tech and crypto bros realizing that maybe the brutal heat and humidity, high property taxes, high sales tax, shittier than you'd think nightlife, and lack of legal weed aren't worth avoiding personal income tax for.

Probably he will not escape capitalist hellhole. EU is too far away.
