Yeah, I heard about that. Shame he was (probably) killed.
Still, he died standing for what believed in. He died a free man.

Not sure he was killed. He had like 12 forms of stage 30 cancer or whatever, and basically had no-fucks-given. Sucks he's gone, but the FGC9 and others that he did are legends that'll be around for a long, long, long time.

How do you know he had cancer?

He'd done a long interview last year with a foreigner, and mentioned he was terminal.

Technically everyone is terminal. We just don't all have cancer.

I will be interested to see what this brings to the printing community. He was certainly one of the most prominent guys out there. Stark was of the make every component mindset because its regulated so heavily to get guns, parts or ammo in Europe. Other designers (all basing designs on the AP9) go different routes using off the shelf barrels and FCG's, or worse yet strange abortions made from slide/upper of a production gun.
There are maybe 10 primary designers in the printing world, broken into 3 groups with only some overlap with each having their disciples. Its a really weird secretive bunch, its way too much effort to follow their boards especially more than one.

There is only one way to avoid dying from cancer.
It is universal and works 100% of the time.
Everyone who doesn't do it *will* die from cancer.
That way is to die from something else first.

True. All I know is that if I was told I'd die quickly most likely from it, I'd wait it out and when life took me it would take me.
If they said it would be slow and painful, I'd move to a state or country with a right to die law and be able to pick my own place and time without worry about it causing my family trouble. I'd fight as long as I could, but I won't let it take my dignity or all I've worked for either.
Or fuck it, maybe I'll just chill and eat nothing but bacon cheeseburgers that last year or some shit and see whether the cancer or heart disease wins first.

He really got it. The freedom to speak your mind and the means to keep that freedom are a human right. What people do with any freedom is displayed everyday, both the good and the bad. He's no more responsible for one or the other, each individual is responsible for their actions. The 3d printed knife designer is not responsible for someone's knife attack. Tyranny is also on display everyday and the fate of those with no way to defend their freedom.
