To the author's credit, she did include this sentence: "Not surprisingly, gun advocates haven't embraced the efforts of Smart Tech and others. Smart guns are a slippery slope leading to gun control, some feel. Gun enthusiasts have raised questions about the reliability of the guns -- what if there was a technological glitch when you needed to defend yourself? "
But overall, she puts her faith in Silicon Valley entrepreneurs to come up with safe guns.

It’s certainly the latest opening to defraud the taxpayers if Ubama’s EO goes anywhere. The solar panel fraud has run its course.

Considering that Microsoft can’t get Windows right (full of security holes), can’t imagine them getting into the smart gun software business.

A bad idea, easily hacked.
Firearms are a 750+ year old technology that somebody hopes to control by adding a microchip?
Not gonna happen.
In Brazil, where guns are heavily controlled, people make their own machine guns.

A “safe” gun is one that absolutely reliably goes “BANG” when the legitimate owner needs it to. False negatives are intolerable.

Hi Tech crap is just that. Hi Tech crap. It will be a cold day in he!! before I’d buy one of these so called “smart” guns.

So how exactly would a “smart guy” prevent the two-thirds of the so called “gun violence deaths” which are suicides?

Silicon Valley Smart Gun alright
I'm sorry, Dave, I can't let you fire your weapon, that would be racist, Islamophobic, homophobic and misogynistic, you being a straight White Christian male and all.

Get used to these words “type emergency password”. Because you will see those words a lot. I have used high end fingerprint readers on PC’s and they suck. I have used the android fingerprint login and it sucks. They all suck and a smart gun would suck too. You will be dead way before you can log in.

Rest assured, the government will want a "back door" built into the technology that will enable them to disable the firearm remotely.
Given their history of incompetence, that technology will be stolen and for sale to the highest bidder not long after.

Again with the 30,000 gun deaths a year bullcrap.
Two-thirds of those are suicides. How will a smart gun stop a suicide?
Who even wants these over-priced pieces of crap with questionable technology?

Ever had your cell phone go dead? Now your gun can be just as reliable.
