Smart technology, dumb policy


New Jersey is working on passing a bill to mandate 'smart technology' into all handguns sold within the state. Of course, 'smart technology' hasn't been invented yet. Basically, they are trying to pull a 'california' and drive the production of handguns for everyone nation wide. (California does the same thing with automotive emissions and fuel standards.)

Of course, if guns with 'smart' technology are developed, they will be several hundred dollars more expensive than they are now, which is just fine with the gun grabbers. The more people that cannot afford to defend themselves, the better.

The impact on crime will be negligible. Criminals don't usually get their firearms through regular retailers, and given the amount of 'dumb' guns that are out there, they will still have an ample supply of firearms to stick in your face.

The only "smart" technology I want to see in a firearm is something that keeps me from missing the target.
