Smartphones are locked with a pass code, and some with a fingerprint sensor. But guns, left loaded and ready to fire, can be used by children who accidentally stumble upon them or thieves who steal them. Wouldn’t using “smart guns” — firearms that don’t work without electronic confirmation of ownership — make communities safer?

| 200 years of gun manufacturing refinement has made modern firearms reliable when needed for the masses. It appears gun banners are searching for a way to undo that. The only problem we have is liberal politicians refuse to do their jobs of providing security for the law abiding. They force states to import a population known to oppose Americans and predestined to violence. They neglect to enforce gun violence laws so predators roam the cities. Then blame lawful gun owners. Why think they just want us to be safer? |

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 |
