I'm less laid back regarding this than most of the people in this thread (I think it is a problem) but your comment is ridiculous. First of all what has this got to do with bombs? It's a story about a home made gun. Also: Terrorism: The use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims. Until someone uses this to cause terror it isn't terrorism. >> "I see someone creating guns and killing people to be no different than boston bombers." For a start no one has been killed with this gun. People are killed with guns every day - that does not constitue terrorism. The Boston bombers committed mass murder of innocent people and caused 'terror' in Boston - that is terrorism.

This gun is godsend for terrorists. It is a gun that you can easily create at home, and it can be carried on planes and other high risk places without detection. This is even better than bombs for terrorism. Additionally, mass murders with guns kill more people in US than terrorism. Why shouldn't we classify New Town and Aurora shooting as terrorism? Terrorism is not only about politics. Moreover, guns are probably the most political thing in US. Thanks to NRA.

  "mass murders with guns kill more people in US than terrorism." Both of those numbers are approximately 0. It's not number of people killed that matters in a terror attack.

  Better than bombs for terrorism? Tell that to the plane hijackers of 911 or to McVeigh. You're not making any sense. Why are you so scared of guns?

  A gun on a plane is widely useless post 9-11. One of the sane responses to those attacks was a requirement that bullet proof cockpit doors be installed on all aircrafts.

  "This gun is godsend for terrorists. It is a gun that you can easily create at home, and it can be carried on planes and other high risk places without detection." How is creating a low quality gun at home some kind of godsend? A high quality gun can be acquired quite simply anywhere in the USA. Even if you have some kind of problem with your criminal background you can acquire one at the right price. Or get someone else to acquire it for you. And you don't have to worry about detection with a small gun because it is easily concealable. You're free to walk out of the house and head to times square if you so choose. I'm not sure why you'd think it is better than a bomb. Those are also easily made at home and can be made to look like pretty much any non-threatening object.
