This idiotic attempt is just an assembly bill (for now) it will be a while before it gets through (if ever). Any member of assembly or senate can submit any bill (literally) doesn't mean it will be treated seriously, although this is NY so I have seen stranger things happen... That lady (Jen Rajkumar) is on the power trip so she will put her name on anything that gets publicity, and that nonsense of attempted legislation naturally will, so there is that. https://www.nyassembly.gov/mem/Jenifer-Rajkumar

She is eye candy tho... lol

So the people without criminal history can print and sell them to those who have? Got it.

A salient line from the bill:

It also says if anyone wants to buy a 3d printer, the vendor can't just sell it to them, they just must first request permission from the criminal justice division, who must investigate whether the buyer has a felony charge against them, and reply to the vendor with a yes or no based on that
