A man with the gun is a hero. If everyone carried a gun there be a lot less robberies. The man with the gun probably saved a number of people from injury or death including his own.

Anderson mentioned some pretty valid points. I definitely think the US should pursue Canada’s approach to tobacco in regards to banning commercials and media attention.

On one hand this story is going to get a lot of attention simply because of the association with Tupac. At one point while reading this, i was experiencing skepticism because i wondered if this type of person on this list was really valid, and then I think back to almost a month ago when people that had taken refuge in our hospitable borders then proceeded to attack us. Anyone who has committed crimes against us shouldnt get away with it, and i hope they find and prosecute her.

This article portays them in a way that implies that they were normal and made a huge mistake, but the fact that they were so calm and organized shows that they really did have something wroing in their moral core. Its interesting that "Danny" says that he feels the fact that his car was low on gas was something that saved his life is a testient to his harrowing story. What a lucky guy!

Not really sure how I feel about sending children to school with body armor? The fact that this is even being consider is extremely sad. However, children need to be safe and while many states are taking drastic measures to further gun control measures especially in schools, it's nice to know that the kids will be at least safer, even if they're still sitting ducks.

I have been attacked and bitten two times while conducting police business. I had a gun with me but use Mace instead of my weapon. I never wanted to kill someone’s dog. If the situation got to the point where I believed my life was in danger and would not hesitate to shoot to kill. This is a terrible tragedy and the dogs need to be destroyed. I walk 5 miles every day in a remote area in Alaska and I always have my gun with me. I see moose all the time I have seen 2 bears in the past. I feel a lot safer with my weapon.

How will law enforcement deal with guns that can't be detected by metal detectors?

The gun lover in me thinks this is interesting and revolutionary if it does what it says they can efficiently. However, with rising gun control tension in the country i know this is just going to cause problems.

This is truly an amazing technological advancement, but can be incredibly dangerous in the wrong hands. I believe a 3-D printed handgun may be mistaken as a toy gun either by a child, a law official, or innocent bystander. It also do not truly resemble a traditional handgun, making it even more difficult to detect quickly.
Robert Boutang's comment,

These plastic guns should not be allowed because: they are no good for nothing except to hurt someone. This gun is no good for protection. This looks like a toy for kids. Police officer might think the same way not defend themselves properly if somebody is pointing the plastic toy looking gun at him or her. Someone may be sophisticated enough to make plastic cartridges. A plastic bullet can kill someone as well as a lead bullet if shot in a vital area. An assassin could shoot someone at close range. I cannot see no reason to allow this type of weapon to even be on the market.
