The Palm Beach Post is trying to raise the alarm over 3D-printed guns but instead pushed the “lethality” of rubber band guns.

Notice anything weird about that “lethal” 3D gun? It appears to be a rubber band gun, that’s because it is. In fact, the caption for the picture even points out: “Alex Lorenzo, a 3D-designer who operates Da Vinci’s 3D Lounge in Lake Park, fires his 3D-printed rubber band gun.”

That’s an idea that gives U.S. Rep. Ted Deutch, D-Boca Raton, chills. Deutch has introduced legislation that would ban 3D guns, also known as “ghost guns” because they are untraceable, unregistered and, most worrisome, undetectable.

With one printer, a terrorist or criminal organization could amass weapons from the comfort of their home, Lorenzo said.

“Over the weekend, you could have an arsenal, absolutely,” said Lorenzo.

An Arsenal of Rubber Band Guns?
