Because we realized your side are liars making disingenuous arguments to win at any cost in the war against humanity. You never wanted "safe, legal, and rare" - those were just buzzwords on the road to on-demand child sacrifice. Even now, the new Oklahoma ban on abortion includes exceptions for rape. Your article doesn't mention that one. Nothing you claim to argue should ever be believed. Frankly they gave you too much. You don't appreciate any compromise, so why should any be given? If leftists want a Social Justice War, that's what they'll get.
The same pattern is shaping up in the gun rights debate. Everyone knows the only way to end gun violence would be to magically eliminate all guns. That won't happen, but leftists think they can reach their utopia by making incremental changes in the name of "common sense gun control" bills that do nothing except make people feel good. Everything leftists do is a scheme to push society towards their vision. Many of us on the side of more gun rights / less restrictions would have been perfectly willing to entertain a few more restrictions in the past, believing your sweet lies that we can unite on common sense solutions. Now that we know you're nothing but tools of a tyrannical regime that will say anything to keep power, there can be no compromise and I'm for individuals owning atomic bombs.
I just said in my other comment, you can't compromise with someone who is not operating in good faith. If they're not being honest about their goals, you can't have an honest compromise either. They want it all.
The only way to entirely eliminate guns would be to re-write the rules of chemistry so stored energy cannot be rapidly released to accelerate a projectile, which would also eliminate automobiles, electricity, and probably all life in the universe, as life itself depends on stored and released energies, and after that it's simply a question of scale.
Homemade weapons are only relevant as a hobby as long as someone, somewhere is manufacturing. Analogy: You could make your own opiates, but no one is. Much easier to buy from the inevitable black market. That's what they do in every country that has official gun prohibition and yet still sees gun violence.
To me, indulging their fantasies just results in things like 3D printers being banned with no reason. For most people, it's easier to understand that even though drugs and slavery are illegal, they still happen.

Well said, and spot on.

This is the only thing I disagree with since all you need is some pipe to make a slam fire shotgun. We have seen countless examples of people making the most rudimentary firearms from shit that you can get at your hardware store.

Seriously, they can't keep weapons out of the hands of people in a prison and, in prison, they look in your ass.
That shotgun is a neat concept. Also, Brandon Herrera is awesome.
Speaking of homemade guns, have you seen the Smith and Methson?
