Nazicrat pushes to regulate homemade guns

A House Democrat is pushing legislation to regulate homemade guns.

Rep. Mike Honda (D-Calif.) says his bill is necessary in large part because of the proliferation of 3-D printer technology, which allows virtually anyone to build a firearm in their own home.

Honda's proposal would apply existing gun regulations, including criminal background checks, to all homemade firearms.

“The laws should be the same for the gun you buy and the gun you make,” Honda said. “Our system of background checks and registrations are in place to ensure public safety.

There’s absolutely no reason these checks and registrations should apply to guns made by a licensed manufacturer, but not apply to other, equally dangerous, weapons.”

Supporters of the legislation, including the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence and the Violence Policy Center, are quick to note that homemade firearms have already been used in deadly crimes.

A 2013 shooting spree in Santa Monica, Calif., for instance, was carried out by a man who assembled his own semi-automatic rifle. Five people were killed.

And if all the so-called "assault weapons" in California didn't get registered or disposed of, as appropriate, what makes this idiot think that his version of "law" is going to stop people? You can download plans for a home-made submachine gun on the Internet, and it uses stuff purchased at a hardware store.

Wow. That article is very, very misleading. It insinuates that that shooter who "built his own rifle" has something to do with 3D Printing technology.

Aahhhhh California fucking morons same guy who felt that civilians should not be allowed to own body armor. He's just trying to get in the spotlight the piece of shit.

Another pointless gesture......

Yeah I forgot that part.

But when they are empty you can't use them anymore.

Not that constitutional issues seem to matter much anymore. However for the federal government to make laws on homemade guns wouldn't they have to show some effect on interstate commerce for the law to pass constitutional challenge?

I know I'm probably being to naive considering the types of thing that are considered to be interstate commerce these days.
