Have you heard of the latest trend in the handgun market? It's the gun shaped to look just like a smartphone. I can hear the pitch: "Folks, you won't have to wait much longer for this deadly cutie."
Such a gun opens up a whole new world of self-defense possibilities. How about glam guns? Can I personalize my smartphone gun with a pink, glittery cover that showcases my fashion sense? Can I add a ring-tone? I don't know about you, but I really want my gun to match my shoes.
The maker of the smartphone gun defends his design, saying it's more inconspicuous and less likely to end up in the wrong hands. Fiction can be fun, but the reality is any gun can end up in the wrong hands eventually. |

Yes, guns do end up in the wrong hands, since they keep releasing violent cons instead of making them serve the full sentance. Reinstate 3 strikes you are out for violent offenders. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
