Gun Control & RKBA

THE TECHNOLOGY WORKS.

You found one example of a fingerprint reader that's slow and cling to it like a life raft in a storm.

Reliable technology does exist and some 'dumb guns' can even be refitted to it. The military doesn't use it because it doesn't fit the mission. The police don't use it because it because there aren't commercially available models. There aren't commercially available models because the gun manufacturers don't want to change their manufacturing floor which is basically the same as it was in 1840. Shit, they don't even want to include a mechanical safety devices on popular products like Glock and Keltek.

Meanwhile every commercial airliner and every automobile currently made in this country is fly/drive by wire, the same type of technology used in the talisman technology for guns. As a result cars have become safe to the point that they kill fewer people each year than guns.

Thanks to the talking points sent out by the gun industry spokes people in the NRA, NSSF and GOA and repeated word for word here the technology is killed in it's infancy. The one instance of a gun store offering a smart gun was met with death threats and a boycott. DEATH THREATS because the owner offered ONE model as a choice to his customers.

So, when you get to the serious part, let me know.
