The more I read articles like this, the more I realize that the war on drugs parallels the new war on guns. The outcomes will also be similar: when you restrict or outlaw something that people really want, they will just go to the black market.

3D printers are getting cheaper and cheaper and you can actually make a real gun from it. While these guns aren't that desirable or accurate, it's only a matter of time before they are. So what then? Are we going to ban 3D printers or make a person get a license??
