FedEx Refuses to Ship a Digital Mill That Can Make Untraceable Guns

The new generation of “maker” tools like 3-D printers and milling machines promises to let anyone make virtually anything—from prosthetic limbs to firearms—in the privacy and convenience of his or her own home. But first, those tools have to get to customers’ homes. That’s going to be difficult for at least one new machine with the potential to make homemade firearms, because FedEx is refusing to deliver it.

Once again someone proves that there is no limit to stupid.

This shouldn't be a shock to anyone. FedEx is the US government's largest private logistics partner and moves more non-military related government packages than the government themselves. That includes private mail and private packages that are sent via mail CO the United Stated Postal Service.

Christ... their name is "Federal" Express. As far as I can tell, they are the US government.

Fed Ex also cheats its drivers forcing them to work as private contractors and pay all expenses out of pocket leaving them with very little money after all is said and done.
