California state Senator Kevin de Leon proposed a bill on Monday that would require anyone who plans to assemble a gun made from a 3D printer to undergo a background check, the Associated Press reported. The bill also extends to anyone buying parts of a gun to assemble at home.

And that makes it crystal clear where their loyalties lie and what their goals are. Traitors, the whole lot of them.

I do not believe I have ever ever seen a Star Trek episode where the person using a replicator had to show a registry ID card...

Wanna bet California state Senator Kevin de Leon is one of those dip $hits that sat on a xerox machine, duped his ass and distributed copies to everybody in homeroom.

Good luck with that. The plans and blueprints have been all over the web for more than a year now, and have already been downloaded by millions of people all over the world.

SuperMex De Leon is within inches of being formally indicted.

Everyone knows it.

This is a just a last grasp at relevancy before political oblivion, and prison.
