Smart Gun Bill to be Considered on Tuesday, April 15 in the California Assembly! |
Thursday, April 10, 2008 |
Please Contact the Assembly Public Safety Committee Today! On Tuesday, April 15, the Assembly Public Safety Committee will consider Assembly Bill 2235, a bill to forbid the sale of handguns other than "owner-authorized (or smart) handguns" -- that is, handguns with a permanent, programmable biometric feature that renders the firearm useless unless activated by the authorized user. No proven, viable handgun of this type has ever been developed. State Assembly Member Greg Aghazarian, (R-26), Vice Chair State Assembly Member Joel Anderson (R-77) State Assembly Member Hector De La Torre (D-50) State Assembly Member Fiona Ma (D-12) |
Sure, I’ll accept these as soon as every officer in the state carries them. What? The police unions won’t accept it? Then why should I?
The Bloods, Crips and MS-13 wont accept it either.
Looks like the Marxist thugs are making their move. They can’t establish a communist utopia with a bunch of armed citizens running around. I don’t see CA citizens kicking up much of a fuss. They’ve already accepted the primary fascist tenet of government control of private property for the common good, as determined by the state. Bearing arms is simply another basic property right. If Californians accept government controlling land, homes and businesses, why not accept control of more of your property?
The criminal fascist syndicate occupying Washington will be watching the CA experiment. If it goes well, banning arms across the country will follow.
People better start getting ready, and I don’t mean buying extra boxes of ammo. I’m talking about establishing political control in your local villages, townships and counties. If you don’t have some kind of political base to operate from, you’re in deep trouble.
See Founding Fathers (1750-1775) for details and examples.
It will not effect criminals.
Another BC law.
Just what I want-- a weapon that pops up "Abort, Retry, or Fail?" when I need it most...
I thought the concept of smart guns had faded away. I guess I was sadly mistaken. Why is it that the dumbest ideas seem to be the ones that politicians like the best?
Or ever will.
Stop! Freeze! I will shoot you! click......click.....what the hell.....
That wouldnt have hapened if only you had gotten the Apple Mac version instead of the Microsoft Windows.
Biggest liberal bullsh!t idea that I’ve seen.
This is currently an impossible feat to accomplish.
I’ve designed biometric systems for a decade now and the state of the art isn’t there yet. Anything that would work reliably isn’t portable enough, and anything that is portable isn’t accurate enough.
This is a product driven law. The develope can sell his product so the next step is to FORCE the sale of his product.
It is like the pay off of MADD to advocate the ignition interlock devices as madatory in all cars.
Excellent point.
They have actually confirmed that the 2d is an individual right not a collective right.
Those of us on the right continue to “mis-underestimate” those on the left. Actually, their objectives are not stupid. They for the most part are very well thought out. As an example, the Lefties are very well aware that the technology for their proposed smart guns has not been developed. Nevertheless, the Left’s strategy is to force gun companies to spend valuable money and time attempting to comply. As the Left is well aware, and contrary to public opinion, gun companies are not large and their resources and revenues are limited. So, these endless requirements being legislated may force some gun companies into bankruptcy. To state it more succinctly, the left is attempting “a death by a thousand cuts”...
With the MAC version of smart gun, you will wait for the hour glass icon to stop before being able to shoot the rapist or burglar.
Somebody needs to start hanging these guys on the courthouse square. Smart guns are not smart at all. Anything electronic is subject to failure. I can promise you that the police are not going to want these guns, Nor the military. The gun must fire every time the trigger is pulled or an inncocent life will be lost.
Ever since 1982 when the VOTERS of California turned down a handgun gun ban(that was guaranteed to pass)the legislature has tried to find any way they could to bypass the voters.
This is just another one of them. They know they can’t trust the VOTERS with gun issues, except in San Fran.

Wait till you see the “dead battery” signal. It soon won’t be the batteries that are also dead.
You can bet the law enforecment groups will get a “waiver” so as not to need it on their firearms.
