On November 12, US Federal Judge Robert Rasnick ruled that the Distributed Defense Organization, a non-profit organization based in Texas licensed by the US State Department to release downloadable drawings, violated federal law.
Citing the State Department’s previous view, he pointed out that publishing such information would enable criminals, including terrorists outside the United States, to obtain US weapons, thereby threatening US foreign policy, national security, and even world peace.
In 2018, the Trump administration decided to allow the “distributed defense organization” to publish online3D printingDrawings of guns, but they have caused widespread criticism. Washington, DC and 18 other states filed lawsuits to block this decision.This time, the measures taken by the Trump administration to loosen control of US gun exports include relaxation3D printingControl of guns. Some members of Congress expressed great concern about this.
Democratic Senator Bob Menendez warned that terrorists and criminals who want to hijack Americans on airplanes will be more likely to carry things that are not easily detected.3D printingThe guns boarded the plane.He said that the online system that is currently under the control of the U.S. “Military Products Control List”3D printingThe content of guns is regarded as a kind of “export”, and transferring it to the Department of Commerce is “de-regulated.” The US Department of Commerce will not3D printingOf supporters set permission restrictions on public information.
Public opinion believes that the negative consequences of turning military weapons into commercial products are very serious, not good for the world, and not good for the security of the United States itself.
According to reports, although such military guns are strictly controlled in many countries, they have been sold in the United States, causing tragedies in mass shootings again and again. In several mass shootings since 2017, such as the El Paso shooting, the Dayton shooting, the Florida campus shooting, the Las Vegas shooting and the Sutherland Springs church shooting, the gunmen used Most of them are semi-automatic rifles.
Democratic Senator Ben Cardin stated that Trump’s relaxation of US gun export controls is “politically turning a deaf ear to domestic gun violence.”
Democratic Representative Elizabeth Esti said, “If I can, I will stop this change.” She said that this is an issue involving national security and diplomacy, and transferring it to the Ministry of Commerce will make it an economic issue that promotes an industry, “this is to put profits above the people.” Robin Lloyd, director of the government affairs department of the American gun safety organization Giffords, also said that the Trump administration is obviously sparing no effort to discuss gun lobby groups, even if it means “putting profits above the safety of the world.” “.
Public opinion believes that the relaxation of US gun export controls will make it easier for terrorist organizations and other criminal groups to obtain American guns, thereby endangering the safety of American overseas institutions and bases and the safety of American civilian airliners. According to the Center for Global Communication and Violence Policy, the US Gun Control Organization, this will make it easier for guns made in the United States to flow into the hands of terrorists or criminal groups.
According to reports, gun support from the United States has pushed violent criminal activities in Latin America and the Caribbean. Data from the U.S. Bureau of Tobacco, Alcohol, Firearms and Explosives Control shows that a large number of guns seized in Central America and the Caribbean can be traced to the United States. Because of the geographical relationship, Mexico bears the brunt.

According to reports, the recent massacre of a family of nine people in the United States in Mexico was a tragedy of “made in the United States and died in Mexico.” All the cartridges and bullets found at the crime scene were American-made. No one knows how many guns are smuggled from the United States to Mexico each year. Researchers at San Diego University estimate that between 2010 and 2012, no fewer than 750,000 guns were smuggled from the United States to Mexico. Nearly half of the gun companies in the United States rely on exports to Mexico to some extent, and the guns seized by the authorities at the border account for only a small percentage, about 15%. Data from the US Bureau of Tobacco, Alcohol, Firearms and Explosives Control also show that between 2009 and 2018, of the more than 130,000 firearms seized from Mexican criminals, about 70% came from the United States.
It is also reported that the influx of a large number of American guns has also kept Mexico’s violent crimes high year after year. A recent research report issued by the American Association for Foreign Relations stated that since the anti-drug campaign was launched in 2006, more than 300,000 murders have occurred in Mexico. In 2018, Mexico set a new record for homicides, reaching nearly 36,000, many of which were related to drug trafficking. This trend continues into 2019, and so far there have been nearly 90 murders every day.
