Katie Kirk on behalf of Moms Demand

0:03

Action.

0:05

And I advocate for

0:09

um

0:11

in support.

0:12

>> Thank you so much.

0:13

>> Hey everybody, how's it going? I hope

0:14

you're having a lovely day. I'm going to

0:15

make this into a few separate videos

0:17

because I don't know how to get out what

0:18

I'd like to get out very quickly, but I

0:20

wanted to give people who don't want to

0:21

watch a 9-hour long live stream some

0:23

quick cutouts of what happened. TLDR,

0:26

this bill that is going to require 3D

0:28

printers to have tracking software in

0:30

them or to connect to some server

0:31

somehow using technology that does not

0:33

yet exist to be able to detect whether

0:35

or not a thing you're printing a firearm

0:36

part moved forward. They voted yes on it

0:38

again. So it moved out of judiciary last

0:40

week and this week it moved out of the

0:42

public safety committee and it was

0:44

overwhelmingly voted in favor of. I

0:45

wanted to just show you some clips of

0:47

the stuff that I found the silliest. The

0:49

first point, and that's the point that

0:50

it is keep pointing to over and over

0:51

again, is that there is a lot of

0:54

astro-turfing that I believe is going on

0:56

in the pushing of these bills around the

0:57

country and I traced it back in my last

1:00

video to Bloomberg and everytown for gun

1:01

safety who's also affiliated with this

1:03

group Moms Demand Action. When the

1:05

hearing starts, they're going to be the

1:06

me, too's and you're going to see all

1:07

these women and a couple men go up

1:09

wearing red shirts and it's going to say

1:10

Moms Demand Action.

1:13

You look into them. Please look into

1:14

them. And it's going to be a certain

1:16

type of person you're going to see

1:17

through the whole thing. But then when I

1:19

look down this hall,

1:20

it's everybody. It's diverse. It's

1:23

totally inclusive. It's everyone across

1:25

the board. Everyone this affects. It's

1:27

not just, "Oh, we're trying to

1:30

take this action and push it through."

1:33

Katie Kirk on behalf of Moms Demand

1:36

Action.

1:37

And I advocate for

1:41

um

1:43

in support.

1:44

>> [laughter]

1:44

>> Thank you so much.

1:46

>> Like if you saw the people that are for

1:47

this bill, it was the same person in the

1:48

same red shirt with the same logo over

1:50

and over and over again. It was a carbon

1:52

copy. If you look around here, I see

1:54

everyone on the planet. There's people

1:55

from all over the world, every walk of

1:57

life, every age, everything.

1:59

>> That woman didn't know what her position

2:00

was supposed to be on the bill.

2:01

>> And I advocate for

2:05

um

2:07

in support.

2:08

>> I don't think that these people even

2:09

know what the bill is about. And David

2:11

started talking to some of them and it

2:12

sounded like some of them didn't

2:13

actually know what this bill is about.

2:15

They were just told something.

2:16

>> I'm so deeply disappointed in Everytown

2:18

and in Moms Demand Action because it's

2:21

like once upon a time I followed them

2:23

when they when they formed and um I wish

2:27

that I could continue to support them,

2:29

but um sorry, I know who's paying the

2:31

bills now and this is awful and it's

2:34

deeply disappointing.

2:35

>> So, they're taking advantage I mean how

2:37

I don't know if you had conversations

2:38

with the women that were here from Moms

2:40

Demand Action, but like even sitting

2:41

there having a chat with them like some

2:43

of them didn't even really like as Louis

2:45

saw earlier like one of them wouldn't

2:46

even know if she was for or against. I

2:48

was having a conversation with them and

2:49

they're like, wait, what? And I show

2:50

them the eyeball and they're like, what?

2:51

I didn't know that. They just told me

2:52

that it just makes guns.

2:54

>> They're just here to like

2:55

>> it's a gun-making machine and they're

2:56

like, well, yeah. And I'm like, they're

2:57

gaslighting their own people.

3:00

>> And again, this this is just my opinion

3:01

here. I don't have proof of this. It

3:03

just sounds like you went to the

3:04

rent-a-mom center and you just paid two

3:06

or three hundred dollars plus lunch to

3:07

get some people to put on a red shirt

3:09

and show up to say that they're in

3:10

opposition to something because moms are

3:12

a sympathetic group. Because older moms

3:14

are a sympathetic group. I I know I I

3:16

sound like a dick saying it, but I'm

3:17

just going to say it because this is all

3:18

what we're all thinking. It seems like

3:20

you just went to the rent-a-sympathetic

3:22

group of people store and just rented a

3:24

group of sympathetic people for this.

3:26

That woman, in my opinion, has no

3:28

[ __ ] clue why she is there. I don't

3:30

think she's a bad person. I don't think

3:31

she's a mean person. I think, in my

3:33

opinion, that they're taking advantage

3:35

of people that want to do good in the

3:36

world. I know my you know, my grandma

3:38

was a very kind and caring old lady. She

3:40

liked being a part of things that were

3:42

making the world better. And when she

3:43

was 77, if you told her, "Hey, you know,

3:45

you have nothing to do today. You're

3:46

retired. You like you have no career.

3:49

Your family's moved out. Would you like

3:50

to spend some time showing up here just

3:53

to try and make the world a little

3:54

better? She'd be like, "Oh, I support

3:55

you. I support you. I love it." You

3:56

know, with the old-school San Benedetto

3:59

accent. And I could see her getting

4:00

roped into something like this. That

4:01

really kind of pissed me off.

4:03

I think they're taking advantage of

4:04

people. They have the money to do this.

4:05

That's a 50 to 80 million-dollar-a-year

4:07

budget.

4:10

That's a lot of treats for BlackBerry.

4:11

To be clear, I am not mad at or making

4:14

fun of that older woman. That is not

4:15

what I'm making What what I'm mad at is

4:17

Everytown. I am mad at Bloomberg. I am

4:20

mad at the people that use their 55 to

4:22

80 million-dollar-a-year budget. I don't

4:24

know what the mechanism is for rent a

4:26

sympathetic group of people. I don't

4:27

know how you organize that, but they

4:29

have the money to do it. And it is very

4:31

[ __ ] clear if you were present for

4:32

that hearing or you spoke to some of the

4:34

people involved that many of the people

4:36

testifying in favor of this bill don't

4:38

know what's in it.

4:40

In fact, some of the people that are

4:41

going to be voting on it barely know

4:42

what's in it. They read the bill the

4:44

night before, and they admitted that

4:45

they don't really know what's in it.

4:46

>> These are very genuine questions cuz I

4:48

also I'm I'm learning about about this

4:52

in real time as you all are explaining

4:54

this to me. Um and as I was reading the

4:56

bill last night

4:57

>> You could hear that little tinge of a

4:58

laugh at the end the same way that I

5:00

would have laughed in fourth grade if I

5:01

was supposed to do my book report and I

5:03

actually just started writing it last

5:04

night.

5:05

>> Um and as I was reading the bill last

5:06

night

5:07

>> Right before I hand it in and when the

5:09

teacher says, "Did you write this last

5:11

night when you had 6 months to write

5:12

your book report?"

5:14

That's the exact same laugh. That's the

5:15

exact same tone of voice that you heard

5:17

there. They know that they are

5:18

legislating and regulating an industry

5:21

that they do not understand, that they

5:22

literally just started learning about.

5:24

I'm very sympathetic to the fact that

5:25

they have a lot of bills to read, and

5:26

I'm very sympathetic to the fact that

5:28

one person can't be an expert on

5:29

everything, but that's why if you don't

5:31

have the time to read all of this, and

5:32

you don't have the ability to be an

5:33

expert on the topic, that you need to

5:36

err on the side of caution before you

5:37

[ __ ] up an entire industry when every

5:39

single person who is an expert in that

5:41

industry is telling you that this is not

5:42

possible.

5:43

>> It's everyone. This clearly affects the

5:44

whole planet. When you hear the list of

5:46

companies that are supporting this

5:48

around the world and all the scientists

5:50

and engineers and just people in general

5:52

that get it, I mean people outside of

5:54

engineering and 3D printing are

5:55

supporting this cuz of the pure

5:56

absurdity of the bill.

5:57

>> I'm not going to vote on this just

5:59

because it looks good.

6:00

>> I know.

6:00

>> 3 seconds later.

6:02

>> [laughter]

6:02

>> I'm going to vote on it cuz it looks

6:04

good.

6:05

>> I don't always I'm very selective in the

6:07

gun bills that I support because I don't

6:10

want to vote just because it looks good.

6:12

It's got to work and I'm I'm from a

6:14

hunting family. They hunted and they ate

6:16

everything they hunted and they lived

6:17

out in a rural area. So I want the guns

6:20

to make sense, but I also think there's

6:22

something here. I'm going to vote for it

6:24

today. I may not on the floor. I think

6:26

there's some more discussion that needs

6:29

to be had and I really appreciate

6:31

everybody coming out here today because

6:33

I learned a lot about the applications

6:35

of that technology to be able to create

6:38

things that do really good things in in

6:40

our lives and I will be voting yes

6:42

today.

6:43

>> Then you have the guy that said if you

6:44

wanted to manufacture a gun yourself,

6:46

you probably could manufacture a gun

6:47

yourself. You could just go anywhere and

6:48

get a gun yourself. So I thought, "Ah,

6:50

maybe this person gets it."

6:52

And maybe this bill is just about making

6:54

a statement. Maybe it doesn't even

6:55

really do anything. I'm like, "He really

6:56

does get it."

6:58

And then he voted for it just to make a

7:00

statement.

7:02

>> I am very picky about firearms

7:06

legislation and there's a lot

7:09

I don't support if it doesn't make

7:10

sense. And by the way,

7:13

3D printing isn't the only way to do it.

7:15

There's machine shops anywhere up and

7:17

down the state of California throughout

7:19

all 50 states in this country. They

7:20

really wanted to create a firearm

7:21

overnight, tonight, or probably dozens

7:24

of them

7:25

without serial numbers and they do. Some

7:27

do, you know, people are out there DOJ

7:30

and so forth trying to catch them. It's

7:32

not okay though. So [snorts] I

7:34

understand the arguments of hey look,

7:35

you got to get the

7:37

the criminal, the felon, not don't go

7:39

after with 3D printers.

7:41

You know,

7:42

someone might say this is a statement

7:44

bill, you're just making a statement

7:45

that you don't want guns being 3D

7:46

printed. It is.

7:48

It's I think it wants to create

7:51

a situation where that's not happening,

7:53

but I also think it's a statement almost

7:56

like if you put a if you put a

7:58

a warning on the side of every 3D

7:59

printer that said, "It is illegal to to

8:02

use this device

8:03

to to create a firearm um

8:07

you know,

8:08

as as they've been defined in California

8:10

code." So,

8:11

I don't know how you segregate BB guns.

8:15

I don't really recommend

8:18

anymore even though I grew up with them

8:20

um promulgating a whole bunch of toy

8:22

guns or chocolate guns or things like

8:24

that to give to your kids um

8:27

unless you want to put them through full

8:28

gun training and but I'm going to

8:30

support it today just because as, you

8:32

know,

8:33

I chair the outdoor caucus here. I just

8:35

don't see the need and I apologize for

8:39

those who do, but I we have a difference

8:40

of opinion on that. I just don't see

8:42

that I have a need when hunting season

8:45

starts next month in California to have

8:47

a 3D

8:48

produced firearm. I do understand that

8:51

people want to have freedom in terms

8:55

just like Wozniak did in terms of

8:57

experimenting with things you could

8:58

produce

8:59

>> The part where he says like maybe you

9:00

could disagree with me, maybe you don't.

9:02

I don't see why you need a 3D printed

9:03

gun to go hunting.

9:08

Where did somebody ask for a 3D

9:10

[screaming] printed gun to go hunting?

9:12

Where?

9:13

You [ __ ] idiot.

9:17

How the [ __ ] do these people make laws

9:19

for anybody? 254 people showed up. 254

9:24

people on the beside that was opposed to

9:26

this bill. How many of them even

9:28

mentioned using a gun for shooting?

9:30

Almost everybody that showed up that was

9:32

in favor of this bill was a liberal

9:34

Democrat Californian that hates guns.

9:38

>> Hello, my name is Scott Seaver. I'm a

9:39

mechanical engineer, lifelong California

9:41

resident, Democrat, supporter of

9:43

effective gun control, and I strongly

9:45

oppose this bill.

9:46

>> What the [ __ ]

9:50

That is the biggest piece of straw man

9:52

[ __ ]

9:53

Did that He's sleeping.

9:55

The entire testimony, I didn't post the

9:57

whole thing here. It just sounds like he

9:59

wasn't even there for half of it. What

10:01

the [ __ ] Then there's the part where

10:03

the bill author got asked a basic

10:05

[ __ ] question on what type of 3D

10:06

printers this applies to, and she

10:08

couldn't answer it. And you can see

10:09

she's like shuffling through her papers

10:10

going, "Um um um." Because she doesn't

10:12

know how to use a 3D printer. She

10:13

wouldn't know how to plug it in.

10:14

>> Just so I'm clear, uh Assembly member,

10:16

is your your bill is applying to all 3D

10:19

printers, right? So, those that print in

10:21

plastic, metal, sugar, etc.

10:25

So,

10:26

if

10:27

>> Yes.

10:27

>> Sorry. I'm trying to keep protocol here.

10:30

Um so, uh

10:31

Can I if Yeah, let me answer that in 1

10:33

second, and then um

10:35

>> And you know, the the the the cherry on

10:37

the cake of all this is the woman that

10:39

is pushing for a bill that would require

10:41

that your 3D printer connect to the

10:42

manufacturer to server to see every

10:44

single [ __ ] thing that you print is

10:46

the chair of privacy for the state. I'm

10:49

not kidding. I didn't realize this, but

10:51

the woman pushing this bill actually is

10:53

a chair of privacy for the entire state

10:55

of California, the fourth biggest

10:57

economy in the world, and she is the one

10:58

that is pushing for your personal

11:00

property to literally report to the

11:02

state every [ __ ] thing that you do

11:04

with it, whether you are printing a

11:05

trigger for a gun or you are printing a

11:07

trigger for your hose because they look

11:09

the same. What the [ __ ]

11:12

And even she realizes it. Listen to her

11:14

voice.

11:15

>> And at the same time, I think we have

11:16

real concerns about privacy and data

11:18

right now, as the chair of privacy would

11:20

so so well know.

11:23

Um thank you, Mr. Chair. Um yes, and to

11:25

your point, as the chair of privacy, who

11:27

defends the privacy of Californians, and

11:30

I believe I do,

11:31

um

11:33

>> Listen to the disappointment that she

11:34

has in herself as she should.

11:37

>> defends the privacy of Californians and

11:39

I believe I do um

11:42

>> The way she sounded there, there's a

11:43

character that I play on the channel

11:44

every now and then. You may have heard

11:45

it from time to time. It's a fictional

11:47

character that's just an amalgamation of

11:49

many different people.

11:50

>> Excuse me, sir.

11:52

I'm Louis Rossmann. Can I please have

11:54

some right to repair?

11:56

>> And they go, "No." That's the closest

11:58

I've ever heard in real life to somebody

12:00

actually reminding me of my made-up

12:02

character.

12:04

>> I know I'm supposed to be the privacy

12:05

chair and I want to violate the privacy

12:08

of every person who uses a 3D printer in

12:10

the fourth largest economy in the world.

12:13

But I think I care about privacy. Don't

12:15

you, Blackberry?

12:17

Please.

12:18

were in favor of the bill.

37:39

>> Thank you.

37:41

Is there anyone else?

37:43

>> Chair members, my name is Alvaro

37:44

Rodriguez. I'm a ledge advocate ACLU Cal

37:46

Action. While we are appreciative of the

37:48

committee amendments, we continue have

37:49

strong concerns with AB 2047.

37:52

To start, this bill poses grave risk to

37:54

many users of 3D printers and their

37:56

right to privacy. Just yesterday, the

37:58

Supreme Court reaffirmed an individual's

38:00

right to reasonable expectation of

38:02

privacy in Chatri V. United States. In a

38:04

concurring opinion, Justice Gorsuch

38:06

wrote that one's papers or effects was

38:08

understood at the time of the Fourth

38:09

Amendment adoption to embrace most of

38:12

any kind of personal property.

38:14

This unequivocally includes one's 3D

38:16

printer, and every owner of a 3D printer

38:18

holds the right to reasonable

38:20

expectation of privacy when printing in

38:22

their own home.

38:24

And if the government suspects an

38:25

individual violating the law by 3D

38:27

printing ghost guns, they can obtain a

38:29

search warrants rather than mandating a

38:32

dystopian scanning tool that constantly

38:35

monitors what people do in the privacy

38:37

of their own homes.

38:39

This newly required algorithm contains

38:40

troubling similarities to efforts by

38:42

governments and corporations to either

38:45

break end-to-end encryption or include

38:47

constant scanning technology on people's

38:49

electronic devices.

38:52

At the ACLU, we warned of the dangers

38:54

that this technology brings and how it

38:56

may be exploited to conduct far-reaching

38:58

surveillance.

38:59

Mandating an algorithm that scans for

39:02

possible printing of a ghost gun poses

39:04

similar risk. And the question is where

39:06

will this constant surveillance

39:08

monitoring or every move end?

39:11

Once this scan scanning algorithm is in

39:13

place, it could be abused by governments

39:15

or corporations to prevent socially or

39:17

politically sensitive 3D printed

39:19

designs, infringing on our civil

39:21

liberties.

39:22

This type of software creates a

39:24

permanent backdoor into the privacy of

39:25

our own homes ripe for exploitation.

39:28

And once this new infrastructure exists,

39:31

it is a simple software update away from

39:33

tracking political dissent or preventing

39:35

3D printed designs deemed inappropriate.

39:38

We remain skeptical of any software that

39:41

contains a client-side scanning system

39:43

that is purportedly only designed to

39:45

capture specific files as this software

39:48

invades the privacy of users with 3D

39:50

printers who will, by necessity, have

39:52

everything they print scanned and

39:54

approved by an opaque algorithm. For

39:56

these reasons, we respectfully urge a

39:58

strong no vote on this bill.

40:01

>> Thank you very much.

40:04

And thank you everybody for showing up

40:05

because you demonstrated a point when

40:06

you showed up.

40:10

You demonstrated that you could show up

40:11

and they're not going to listen to you.

40:12

>> Maybe 2047 by our K hand motion is to

40:14

pass as amended to appropriations.

40:16

Again?

40:16

>> Aye. I. Sayarto?

40:18

>> Uh no.

40:19

>> Sayarto, no. Caballero?

40:20

>> Since

40:20

>> Lear, I. Cortese?

40:22

>> I.

40:22

>> Cortese, I. Peraza?

40:24

Wiener?

40:25

>> I.

40:25

>> Wiener, I.

40:26

>> We'll keep that bill on call for absence

40:27

of Senator

40:27

>> Thank you, Senator.

40:28

>> For that one guy who voted no, I want

40:29

you to listen to him because he seems to

40:32

actually understand that he doesn't

40:34

understand enough to vote yes on this.

40:36

He doesn't strike me as a 3D printing

40:38

expert. He strikes me as somebody that

40:40

has some basic common sense that he

40:42

shouldn't poke with and destroy an

40:43

entire industry based over a problem

40:45

that does not exist.

40:47

>> Thank you very much. All right. So, I'm

40:49

going to get away from the technical

40:51

stuff. And I'm going to think like a

40:53

little criminal, okay?

40:55

Um I want to make ghost guns. And I have

40:57

my little 3D printer at home. I know

40:59

it's illegal. I'm going to make my

41:00

little ghost gun or whatever it is.

41:03

You say it's illegal. I already know it.

41:05

I'm already breaking the law.

41:07

Now you tell me, "Oh, we're going to

41:08

come in and make you put a thing in

41:10

there." I'm not going to. I'm going to

41:11

put it in the closet.

41:13

Or if I want to go buy one, I'm going to

41:15

go out of state. I'm going to buy one.

41:17

I'm going to put it in the back of my

41:18

truck underneath a blanket. I'm going to

41:20

bring it in.

41:21

And I'm going to continue to do what's

41:23

illegal because I don't care that it's

41:25

illegal.

41:26

That's That's not going to stop somebody

41:29

who is

41:30

is doing this. In other words, this bill

41:33

like this is ineffective

41:35

in its you know, trying to get people

41:38

that already don't really care what the

41:40

law is

41:41

uh to stop what they're doing.

41:44

Uh all it's going to do is have

41:46

potential real ramifications for people

41:49

that use this technology in advancing

41:52

the technology while while other players

41:56

come in to try to install things that

41:58

they don't know are going to work. The

41:59

The witness that I think knows a lot

42:01

about this has already given us the

42:03

lowdown on how effective this stuff is.

42:06

So, you know, just like the gun laws

42:08

that come up against the Second

42:10

Amendment, you can't keep passing things

42:12

that are against the Constitution cuz

42:14

they're just not legal. And when you do

42:15

pass things like this, okay, you know,

42:18

have you been able to stop them? No.

42:20

It's illegal. And yet, what are we

42:21

finding? We're finding that people are

42:23

making them. So, what do we do?

42:25

We go after those people.

42:27

We go after those people.

42:29

This isn't going to help us do that.

42:31

This isn't going to change anything. All

42:33

this is going to do is potentially

42:35

create

42:36

big problems for people that legally use

42:39

this type of technology.

42:41

We don't have the technology to say

42:44

that that that the printer is going to

42:46

recognize that this is a Oh, wait a

42:48

minute. This guy is doing a ghost gun.

42:51

So, somehow we're going to grind the

42:54

whole thing to a halt.

42:56

It's not there.

42:58

And and I haven't heard anybody tell me

43:00

that it is.

43:01

I've heard you tell me it's 4 years

43:04

away.

43:05

Um

43:06

that means nothing

43:08

to me. This is an ineffective

43:11

with way too many

43:13

way too much collateral damage that's

43:15

possible to

43:17

burgeoning industry out there for a lot

43:19

of people that are very creative people,

43:22

by the way, that their livelihood

43:24

depends on this technology. So, again,

43:26

you need to go after the people that are

43:27

breaking laws, not after the technology

43:29

that they use because they'll continue

43:31

to use that technology whether you make

43:33

new laws that affect everything else or

43:35

not.

43:36

>> There is hope though. There is hope.

43:37

There's one person that did not vote on

43:39

this yet. There was that woman that

43:40

said, "Hey, listen, I just read this

43:41

yesterday. I don't really know a lot

43:43

about it." Who started asking her good

43:45

questions, and then she said this. She

43:46

said, "I know somebody in my district

43:48

who's actually very concerned about

43:49

this, and even though I can I care about

43:50

gun control, I care about what my

43:52

constituents say."

43:52

>> And I I asked these questions because I

43:54

think one of the main concerns that I've

43:56

heard, you know, from my constituent is

43:59

I think out of all these things and the

44:01

questions that he had was just about the

44:03

surveillance issue. And are we

44:05

essentially creating like a a system

44:07

where we are tracking everybody that

44:09

happens to own a 3D printer, including

44:12

individuals like himself. The individual

44:13

I'm talking about lives in the city of

44:15

Monterey Park. I represent the city of

44:17

Monterey Park, if you're familiar. We

44:18

had a mass shooting that happened about

44:20

4 years ago. Um and had a number of

44:23

individuals who died as a result of that

44:26

mass shooting. This is an issue that he

44:28

cares a lot about personally, but also

44:30

has these questions about privacy as

44:32

well. I'm I'm not quite sure how you

44:35

resolve that. The issue that has been

44:36

raised to me that I'm trying to navigate

44:38

as somebody that obviously wants to keep

44:40

our community safe. And at the same

44:42

time, I think we have real concerns

44:44

about privacy and data right now, as the

44:46

chair of privacy would so so well know.

44:49

>> Here's what Anne had to say about that,

44:50

and I agree with her.

44:51

>> I'd like to point out the senator who

44:53

talked about a specific person who lives

44:56

in her district that talked to her and

45:00

sent a message about

45:03

this person

45:05

giving her both sides of the argument

45:07

and telling her in their own words why

45:10

this bill was concerning to them. And I

45:13

think that really speaks to how

45:15

important a single person calling in

45:18

could potentially be. And so, I want

45:20

everyone to take this as a lesson.

45:23

If you win, you call all of the offices

45:28

of the senators, especially the senator

45:32

whose district you live in. Speak

45:35

specifics. Say, "I live in this city.

45:39

This concerns me for this reason." Like,

45:43

bring it Make sure that you say your

45:45

background. Make yourself human. Don't

45:48

just call in and say, "I vote this."

45:50

They're not looking at a tally of how

45:53

many people call in. They're looking for

45:55

it really personal stories like this

45:58

that kind of speak to them and speak to

46:00

the other assembly members that they can

46:02

bring in and kind of from the business

46:05

perspective, these senators, this is

46:07

their full-time job. Like all of us that

46:10

work in corporate, we're we're kind of

46:13

pushed to

46:14

show that we're show that we're

46:16

listening to people, show that we're

46:18

providing impact. These people are the

46:20

same way. They're this is their job.

46:23

They're trying to prove to everyone else

46:25

in the room that they're doing their job

46:27

well, they're providing impact, they're

46:30

working for the people of California,

46:33

and you need to help them do their job.

46:36

If you make their job easy, that's what

46:38

moves the needle.

46:40

>> Yeah, absolutely. That's a great way of

46:41

putting it. Love that, Anne.

46:44

It's true. It's absolutely true. I mean,

46:46

that's the thing. That's why it's

46:47

important to call your representatives,

46:48

especially yeah, we'll we'll get you

46:50

locally. Like it makes a difference

46:52

because they care locally. You know, all

46:54

the rhetoric about people not, it's not.

46:56

You need to make it personal for them

46:57

and more importantly, you need to make

46:59

it easy for them to say that they're

47:00

doing their job. That person when they

47:02

went up there, that person that emailed

47:04

her is now going to see, "Wow, wait. You

47:06

represent like 80,000 people and you

47:09

mentioned me personally while in my

47:11

concern while you were on this panel?

47:13

Wow, you actually care about me. I'm

47:14

voting for you again. And I'm going to

47:15

tell everybody around me to vote for you

47:16

again." Now, here's the note that I

47:18

have. David brought up a point and it's

47:19

an uncomfortable point, but it needs to

47:20

be brought up anyway. Why the [ __ ] are

47:22

we the two people doing the most

47:23

organizing of everybody there?

47:25

No, seriously, why? There's one dude

47:26

from the ACLU, there's me, and there's

47:28

David. Like the We're trying to get all

47:30

these different people to show up. Don't

47:31

get me wrong, I appreciate the [ __ ] out

47:33

of every single person that showed up

47:34

yesterday and last week. Thank you very

47:36

much. But, there's a really important

47:38

conversation to be had here. Please like

47:39

hear me out. Why is it that it's like

47:41

mostly David, myself,

47:43

that are getting people to show up to

47:44

this? Why is it mostly us?

47:46

There are 3D printer companies that make

47:49

millions to tens of millions to hundreds

47:50

of millions of dollars in this industry,

47:52

and there's just been crickets from all

47:53

of them. And David brings up a good

47:55

point. All the other influencers out

47:56

there that are starting to make content

47:58

about this. I know Grant at 3D

48:00

Musketeers is putting out stuff.

48:02

3D Professor better have made something

48:04

if he hasn't. I'm going to give him a

48:06

piece of my mind. He's a friend. All

48:07

these people are starting to do stuff.

48:09

And I'll tell you right now why you

48:11

don't see the biggest 3D printing

48:12

companies here right now with you

48:14

because they are scared out of their

48:16

mind of going against a bill that has

48:19

firearm in the title. That's why I asked

48:21

them flat out is he is this just because

48:23

it's firearm in the title? Call that out

48:25

to people. Call out the the stuff in the

48:27

room. It's not a conspiracy. People have

48:29

told me they don't want to go against a

48:31

firearm bill because the optics. Because

48:32

oh my god you're against this. When I

48:34

first started this opposition, my friend

48:36

runs the Department of Children and

48:38

Family Youth Services for the City of

48:39

San Francisco and she was like what the

48:40

hell are you doing? I can't support you.

48:42

You're on your own. I said did you read

48:43

the bill? No. They are afraid of being

48:46

seen as pro ghost gun as a result of

48:48

showing up.

48:52

I don't care. I don't care if the 3D

48:54

printer companies are offended at the

48:55

message I'm putting forth in this video.

48:56

Since I started going over Bambu Lab

48:58

stuff, I've gotten three offers to get

48:59

three free 3D printers from three

49:01

separate companies. I turned down two of

49:02

them at first and then the last one I

49:04

wound up turning down when I sensed that

49:06

there was a string attached to it and I

49:07

just want nothing to do with that. But I

49:09

don't have sponsors on my channel. So

49:10

because I don't have sponsors, I can say

49:12

it for what it is. You need to stand up

49:13

for your [ __ ] industry. You need to

49:15

be doing at least 1/10 the work that

49:17

David Tobin is out there doing for you.

49:20

If you don't do that work, then some of

49:21

the largest economies in the world are

49:23

not going to be able to sell your

49:24

printers anymore. Or you're going to

49:25

have to sell your printer with blocking

49:27

technology built into it, which means

49:28

that you're going to have to rework your

49:29

entire [ __ ] 3D printer using closed

49:31

source software. Or you're going to have

49:32

to break open source software licenses

49:34

to start putting locks inside of things

49:35

and then you're probably going to get

49:36

dragged to court over something else. Or

49:38

you're going to have to stop selling

49:39

your printers to some of the world's

49:40

largest economies because you didn't

49:42

speak up now.

49:44

And that's on you.

49:45

And when I say you, I don't mean just

49:46

one company. I mean every single company

49:49

that benefits from 3D printing that is

49:51

afraid of being seen as a Luigi

49:53

Mangione. Who, by the way, didn't even

49:55

use a [ __ ] fully 3D printed gun. He

49:57

used 3D printed parts attached to a

49:58

bunch of metal parts. I already talked

49:59

about that in the last video. The point

50:00

is, you all need to start showing up. It

50:03

can't just be me and my merry band of

50:05

YouTube commenters that show up. No

50:06

offense to all of them. It needs to be

50:08

the actual companies involved in this.

50:10

The companies that make these products

50:12

need to send their representatives out,

50:14

need to send their owners, their chief

50:15

technological officers out to explain

50:17

why these bills are not good. I don't

50:19

care if you're afraid of being seen as

50:21

somebody who's trying to influence

50:23

American politics. I don't care if

50:24

you're afraid of being seen as

50:26

pro-second amendment or pro-gun or any

50:27

of that. If you are afraid of how you

50:29

are going to be perceived, then you are

50:31

letting your opposition frame the

50:32

arguments and you are letting them win.

50:34

Never accept the premise of [ __ ]

50:36

These people are trying to destroy your

50:38

[ __ ] industry and you just hope that

50:40

it's going to go away. It's not going to

50:41

go away. Most people are not talking

50:43

about this. David is right. It's only

50:45

just now, after David came out, that you

50:47

see all these other 3D printer channels

50:49

that are starting to talk about this in

50:50

a way that they weren't before. There's

50:51

a lot of influencers that are afraid of

50:53

alienating brands. There are brands that

50:55

are afraid of going into a territory

50:57

where they may be perceived as being

50:58

political. Life is political. At the end

51:00

of the day, what is politics? It's

51:01

people coming together to make rules

51:03

about how you live your life. And if you

51:04

don't take part in those discussions,

51:06

then you may be harmed when those rules

51:07

that come out don't make any sense and

51:09

[ __ ] up your life, which is why you need

51:11

to come out and you need to say

51:12

something, not just us. I don't know

51:14

jack [ __ ] about 3D printing. I really

51:15

don't. I just started researching this

51:17

[ __ ] less than a month ago and people

51:19

started emailing me saying, "I don't

51:20

know why there's not more people talking

51:22

about this." I started talking about it

51:23

cuz I didn't see anybody else talking

51:25

about it. And when David said he needed

51:26

help and he was on his own, he gave me

51:28

his number, I called him back within

51:29

half an hour while I was eating my

51:30

quesadilla and I put off the rest of my

51:32

work day for it. It was awesome. I mean,

51:33

I put this out, it was Ethan over at the

51:35

OC Maker Faire sent me Lewis's email. I

51:37

sent an email, Lewis called me right

51:39

away and said, "How can I help?"

51:40

Together we got over 200 [ __ ] people

51:42

to show up in opposition to this and it

51:44

wasn't enough. We need more help. If you

51:47

work at a company like SpaceX, if you're

51:49

the CTO of SpaceX and you're reading

51:50

this and you think, "Man, this really

51:52

sucks. This is really [ __ ] bad. We're

51:54

going to have less students. We're going

51:55

to have less people that know how to use

51:56

this hardware if this bill comes out."

51:57

Show up. If you run a 3D printing

52:00

company, [ __ ] if you run Bambu Labs for

52:02

all I give a [ __ ] I can't stand you

52:03

people, but you know what? I'll stand

52:05

there right next to you while you oppose

52:06

this. If you work at Bambu Labs, if

52:08

you're a CTO there, show up. From Prusa

52:10

Research, show up. From any one of these

52:12

other companies. It's not enough to hit

52:14

a thumbs up emoji in a group chat with

52:16

other people who are showing up. You

52:17

need to do what Marlene did. When

52:18

Marlene explained, "I'm not a fan of

52:20

guns. This is not my thing. But when I

52:22

saw what was going on, I had to come

52:24

out." And she pointed out in private,

52:25

"Yeah, you know, I was explaining to

52:26

some people that I knew. They're like,

52:27

'What are you flying to California for?'

52:29

'Oh yeah, I'm flying there to be in

52:30

opposition to something that claims to

52:32

be about gun control." And her friends

52:33

are like, "Oh, why?" And then like she

52:37

had Yeah, it's a difficult conversation.

52:39

It's an awkward conversation. And you're

52:40

going to have to explain it to them.

52:41

It's not gun control, it's manufacturing

52:43

control. If you don't do something now,

52:45

enjoy living in a future where you can't

52:47

sell your products across the United

52:48

States of America. Cuz this [ __ ] just

52:50

got introduced in Delaware. It's already

52:52

being pushed through in California. It

52:53

already got pushed and passed in New

52:54

York. How many other economies do you

52:56

not want to be able to sell 3D printers

52:57

into? I'm going to post the entire thing

52:59

along with everybody's comments. And I'm

53:01

going to try to post something together

53:02

that's that includes as much as possible

53:05

for the next video. Give me some time

53:07

for that. It just take There's a lot of

53:08

editing to be done. And I I am a a

53:10

one-man band for the most part, as you

53:12

could tell by the the crappy camera

53:13

work. So, I I I do what I can. My

53:16

apologies for not having the time for

53:17

it. I'm also going to get over to the

53:19

Stop Killing Games thing that happened

53:20

on Monday. I've wanted to go over that.

53:21

I have wanted to dig into it. I've been

53:23

traveling and doing a lot of other

53:24

stuff. That's it for today. And as

53:26

always, I hope you learned something.

53:27

Don't stop showing up. Listen to what

53:29

Anne said.

53:31

Just because it passed here does not

53:32

mean it's going to pass in the state. In

53:33

order for that to happen, the senators

53:35

all have to vote on it. And there's

53:36

still time for you to contact your

53:37

senator and let them know that I'm not

53:39

voting for you next election. And I'm

53:40

going to vote for whoever the opposite

53:41

of you in the primary. I'm going to vote

53:43

for whoever your opposition is

53:44

afterwards.

53:47

They need to believe that. They need to

53:48

believe that they are this close to

53:49

losing their seat over this one issue.

53:51

They need to believe that it's not just

53:52

safe just because it has the word gun in

53:54

it.

53:55

That's for today. As always, hope you

53:57

learned something. See you in the next

53:59

video. Bye now.

Interactive Summary

The video provides an overview of a California committee hearing concerning a bill that aims to mandate tracking software in 3D printers to detect firearm parts. The narrator, Louis Rossmann, argues that the proposed legislation is technologically infeasible, an invasion of privacy, and a threat to the hobbyist and professional 3D printing industry. Throughout the video, Rossmann highlights the testimony of numerous experts and stakeholders who spoke in opposition to the bill, while criticizing the lack of involvement from major 3D printing corporations. The video emphasizes the importance of grassroots political engagement and personal communication with representatives to influence the legislative process.
