Please turn your smart gun off for 10 seconds then re-start.

If carpenters built houses the way programmers write programs, the first termite that came along would mean the end of the world as we know it.

Now, if you believe “smart guns” are the wave of the future, Obonzo should mandate their use by all FedGov LEOs and the Armed Forces. Then, sit back and watch how fast POTUS is relieved of his job.

what if there was a technological glitch when you needed to defend yourself?

Like the government turning them ALL off.

What "smart gun market'?

DO NOT WANT.

Does anyone on this forum know ANY real gun owner who actually wants this crap?

Yep - one pundit was saying how they could be locatable like phones and cars - wide open door for those who want you gone to say, "He's armed!" and blow you away...

Was happy to see FOX acting a bit conservative yesterday - Allen-the-Lib Colmes was saying how there's such a small percentage of terrorists coming in with refugees that it's no reason to shut down our borders and keep them out.

A couple of the ladies asked how he knew the percentage because the government sure ain't keeping accurate tabs, hence San Bernardino... Then a male said that if one would use Obama's logic about guns - if we can stop even one incident... - then it follows that Obama should use that same logic on refugees/terrorists - if we can stop one terrorist, then all the rest is worth it.

They then managed to all agree that Obama's last concern is to protect the People and he wants to control them instead...

Those of us who actually believe what we say can actually make a difference by acting like we believe it...

Now for a short public service announcement to all on FR:
We need to ensure we don't get another Obama-like America Hater as the next President.
The best way to ensure that is to actively support a candidate as the next President.
I prefer Cruz and my money goes to his campaign, hence the Cruz link. If you like someone else, donate to him/her (find your own link to do it) and if you use FR and don't donate, then please don't complain about the welfare leeches or those who have Obama Phones because, functionally, you are no different than any other who enjoys the fruits of others' work for your own benefit.

PS - If you are one of those who cannot afford even a small donation to FR or a candidate, God Bless and happy FReeping!.....

GO CRUZ!! Keep it up Trump!!

Donate to FR

Donate to Cruz

Donate to FR

I will not buy one, for several reasons. One, it will lead to more oppression in New Jersey for gun owners who remain in that cesspit if these come up for sale. Two, it is a certainty that such ‘smart guns’ will be monitored, tracked, and probably built to be shut down by the government at such time as the government feels necessary. Three, there is no actual need for it. Guns are mechanical devices that perform their function just fine as they are now. No need for an Ipistol
