It's crazy how the first thing you did was complain about people with premade talking points rushing to brigade a post, yet you're in here posting walls of text under everyone who is pointing out the logical inconsistencies of banning unregulated 3d printers but not other hardware related purchases.

Even stranger is, I can't figure out what you're upset about. You yourself say that only a tiny fraction of gun violence comes from 3d printed weapons, you say you're against the bill, so why are you getting hostile and making wild, baseless as hominem attacks against people who think it's a pointless bill?

I have absolutely no idea what point you're trying to make here since the things before and after your "yet" have nothing to do with each other.

Are you trying to claim I'm brigading with a single account or somehow manipulating votes?

Well that's on you.

Oh damn I was hoping you didn't know that you can instantly win any debate by just (almost) saying the names of logical fallacies.

"Ad Hominem" means that someone isn't inherently wrong just because they're dogshit. They can both still be wrong and dogshit.

Want to point out exactly where I claimed someone must be wrong because they were a bad person?

I don’t think that’s what anyone was thinking…. Until you said this. Are you brigading with a single account or somehow manipulating votes?

This is classic gish gallop. Downvote and move on.
