  2. Another clueless tech law from somebody that apparently doesn't know crap about tech. 3D printers at the low end are dumb, low-tech gadgets easily made from common parts, available software, and lacking even the most basic intelligence that could broadly recognize a gun or gun part.

    Furthermore, this #Texas #legislation will not go far as it probably will not make it for a vote on the House floor, let alone getting to the state Senate or Governors desk. Texas has some of the most lax #GunLaws. You don't have to pass a background check to buy a gun, it's legal to carry a concealed weapon without a permit, and there are no laws to prevent most people convicted of domestic abuse from possessing a #firearm.

    #News: There was cheering during a #Texas House committee meeting this week in Austin. Two Republicans broke with their colleagues and voted with Democrats to advance a bill to raise the minimum age to buy #AR15-style rifles from 18 to 21.
