Why 'Smart Guns'?
To start, this 'smart gun' technology doesn't reconcile well with the traditional mandate of responsibility associated with the ownership of firearms in a free society. But, there are other concerns.
Joseph Steinberg sums up the controversy quite well with the profound comment, "fire extinguishers don't use batteries."
Being a subscriber of the KISS principle, and understanding that we live in an age of hacking, tracking, jamming and malfunction, I'm inclined to stand my ground with the opinion that only a 'dumb-ass' would require a 'smart' gun—and the root of the problem lies therein.
