I don't know, fat people don't get fat from using chopsticks.
The problem that I have right now is that you support the 2A, yet you are trying to suppress the 1A. Deal with the hypocrisy on your end before coming at me.

Gun owners absolutely should not be supporting any product that WILL be used to chip away at our rights. Of course Maryland would be first to screw New Jersey gun owners... He has the right to sell what he wants, and I have the freedom to never ever spend a dime there. Ever.
Engage will came out of this BETTER then when they went in.
Screw the pusscake whiners.
He knew what he was getting into and I feel like this was all a ploy for some free advertising. I support his right to sell whatever he wants but I can't help but feel this was just a case of attention whoring to draw attention to himself.
I don't know how I really feel about smart guns at this point. Do I want one with current technology? Hell no! But as technology advances, maybe to a point where there is no discernible difference, it would probably be a good thing. Competition to build a better smart gun will make this happen fast. Just think, the iPhone just came out 7 years ago, and now look at the market. The finger print reader on the smart phones are pretty accurate and instant. Fast forward just 2 years, and the technology will probably be perfected. I understand the apprehension and various arguments I myself battle with. Cost? Forced law? Hacking on current models? Reliability? Etc.... But, I also think about statistics. How many people are killed with their own gun? Most people really don't know how they would react when faced with a scenario where you shoot or don't shoot. You hesitate at the wrong time, and now the bad guy takes your gun out of your hand and then takes your life. How many guns are stolen, and then used in the commission of a crime. How many inquisitive kids pick up their Dads loaded firearm and the worst case scenario unfolds. Now imagine a gun on a charging station next to your bed all the time at the ready. But it only works with pre-set finger prints. I think having one always at the ready would be cool. I see one like that being made within the next 2-3 years. If not sooner. Hell! The charging station can double as an alarm clock. Of course, now if this model is made, I'll get a cut, right?
I am with you. The possibility of our lousy politicians mandating these guns really worries me. I don't want to be told what to buy either. But, as I said, as technology advances to the point of no discernible difference, the benefits might be worth it.I am a responsible gun owner and I also am responsible with guns in my home with children.I do not need someone dictating nor mandating technology to prevent your so called accidental exakples.
There are evil people in this world that will always do evil things no matter what. No technology will prevent that.
Should I also link to you stories of children saving their parents/sibilings with dads gun?
