Leave it to CNN to give Alyssa Milano another platform to try and scare people about guns. This time she’s taking on 3D printed weapons because this somehow equals “DOWNLOADABLE DEATH” in her mind.
Hey man, we just cover the tweets, we don’t write ’em.
My latest Op ED for CNN:
A 3D PRINTED GUN IS DOWNLOADABLE DEATH https://t.co/byl0u7gned#NoRA
— Alyssa Milano (@Alyssa_Milano) July 30, 2018
From CNN:
Does anybody think the technology is worse or more expensive than it was five years ago? It’s not. You can now buy a 3D printer for less than $100. You could buy a printer fully capable of producing this gun for less than $1,000. The gun itself costs just $25 in materials to make — in 2013.
Imagine the damage one of these guns, even if it was only capable of firing one shot, could do aboard a plane. Or in a government office. Or in your child’s classroom.
In other words, WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE.
Holy crap, people. *Sidenote, we had to make a few grammatical corrections to the op-ed when we included even a small portion of this article. Be better, CNN.*

This works, right?
We especially love the end piece, ‘Have a nice day’.
Downloadable Death. Wasn’t that the title of that lesbian vampire movie you were in? https://t.co/iPG3fJ6yrk

Meeeeep.
Dumbasses who hyperventilate over assault cannons that can fire 3,000 clipazines per millisecond are now worried that 3D printable guns will start a “civil war”. Milano’s tweet, and the replies, are comedy gold. https://t.co/aE3QiZxRDs

Something like that.
Lets keep it all in perspective, though. The cost of a printer capable of building one of these is beyond the reach of most consumers.https://t.co/Qev0JpGI56

Not to mention the sort of person who would use one of these guns to do harm would likely find a gun illegally ANYWAY. Law-abiding, legal gun owners do NOT, as a rule, use their guns to hurt other people (unless the law isn’t enforced or fails and some monster legally gets a gun).

Wait, you mean they’re not paper?!
The 3D printed guns just shoot out liberal tears. They are the new version of the super soaker.

You mention the gun that could shoot 9 rounds that was built from the $1000 printer, yet you have a picture of a metal gun that was printed by a $5000+ machine, while in the same story you claim that the hype isn’t hyperbole.
Is this how you think you’ll change things?

Btw, this is the one that shoots 9 rounds. Notice the hardware keeping it together isn’t plastic… pic.twitter.com/TLyqj0t0Yn

More hysteria drummed up by people who don’t seem to understand the technology.
Shocker.
