The US taxpayer should not be subsidizing technology that law enforcement agencies will reject. New Jersey has to inflict its loony obsession on the rest of the country.

Even if you could snap your fingers and invent perfect technlogy - how long would it take to penetrate the marketplace 100% - 80 years? I would look to anti-gunners to insist that all non-smart guns be turned in as soon as the allegedly smart ones hit the market.

Wouldn't it be better for the person holding the gun to be smart? I never trust any technology to make decisions for me. I trust it only to follow my orders. And with "smart guns," that trust is lost.

That's why I'll never own a "smart gun."

New Jersey has to inflict its loony obsession on the rest of the country.

It's part of their incremental objective moving toward a total gun ban. I wonder if the cops would use such a system after they get blasted by quicker bad guys because of delays in the recognition system?

Police, of course, will be exempted from this "life saving" technology. Go figure.

"Every day, a million children live and play in homes where there are loaded guns that they have access to," said Menendez, who inserted the grant into the federal spending bill

I'd like to know the source of that 'data'.

Exactly how many law enforcement agencies are going to adopt smart gun technology? I gauruntee you, zero. Why? Because cops know that the technology is dangerous and can render a gun useless in an emergency, self defense situation. Sweaty palms and a jittery hand will give prints rejected by nearly every fingerprint biometric device out there.
