The new law would treat buying a 3D printer like buying a gun.

Lol.

You don’t need a 3d printer to make a gun.

You can also just build a 3d printer from common electronics components.

Don’t be silly. They’ll do a background check everytime you buy a magnet.

Sorry honey, I couldn’t get you the Dora The Explorer fridge magnet; the man at the counter said I’d have to fill out 3 federal clearance forms and wait 4-6 weeks for them to get back to me.
