Discuss in pairs: What do you think of the article? Was this what you expected? We talked about and now this article shows what some people are creating using 3D printers? Do you think 3D printers should be removed from the shops?

  1. Its bad, guns are easy to buy and now people are being able to make them, gangs are especially the worst people to have them considering they actually use them to take lives and frighten people.

  2. This is exactly what I expected, the idea of having a 3D printer in the first place ridiculous.
    Yes, I think 3D printers should be removed as it will cause a lot of chaos!

  3. This is something you would expect in society. People should think about it properly first before selling it in the shops. They should sell it to certain type of people who can show proof that they need it for printing descent and acceptable things.

  12. These is kind of stupid because people would abuse it for example, gangs. They would use them to threaten or maybe kill people. However for war it would be really good becoz of the unlimited weapons you can produce

  14. THIS DEVICE SHOULD BE BANNED , this could have a huge impact on the increase in terrorism in the UK , alledged terrorists could get into the country without any weapons , then print it out and use it once inside.

  16. i think it is wrong as people knew gangs would do this and its america's fault for showing they can print guns such as rifles but it wont be as powerful as a real gun but its potentialy dangerous they could even make a knife

  18. i think that people can get a gun only kept for safty in a safe like if some one breakes into your house you can use it.On the other hand gangs would make guns, missile, bullets, rockets, pistols and etc...

  19. It should only be allowed in the army or police forces for printing off emergency weapons

  20. people should print out weapon for self defence for example if a robber come to your house and try to steal something you can just aim at him and he will get scard and he will run away but you should not print out a bullet.

  21. they should create a device in the 3d printers that does'nt allow any weapons that can create harm to others

  22. This is exactly what I expected, the idea of having a 3D printer in the first place was ridiculous. The main purpose of having 3D Printers is to make fresh materials for everyday uses. But as people are out of their minds, such as criminals, they are printing weapon which isn't appropiate.

    In my thoughts, 3D Printers should be banned in society because it may cause situations of certain casualties.
    However, if companies still want to continue their business in selling 3D Printers, I think that it's a good idea to sell only to experts and trusting people.

  23. THIS DEVICE SHOULD BE BANNED AND NEVER HEARD OF AGAIN!!!!!
    As it is a threat to the UK and is being misused by certain people which may cause a riot and then there maybe certain casualties in society. There could be a lot more murder in the society. However i also believe that many people can benefit from it but because of these stupid people it is a threat to the society. This amazing creation has to be banned because of what could happen in the future if it is misused. This is why i believe that the 3D printer should be banned.
