The Daily News is not done<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“While big-money peddlers of death play dumb, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams<\/a> shows savvy with a promise to help move bullet-riddled America to the sane adoption of smart guns. Adams says he\u2019ll deliver $1 million from his budget to whichever New York college delivers the most promising plan for a firearm whose trigger can only be pulled by its authorized user \u2014 much like the smartphones most of us use every day …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Introducing the new Google-edition Glock 17<\/a>, powered by Android-Marshmallow<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Guns are nothing like smart phones.<\/p>\n

“… The beep, who\u2019s an ex-police captain, also signed up the NYPD<\/a> to test prototype high-tech firearms as the winning school develops them \u2014 trial runs that Adams hopes will drive smart guns\u2019 adoption by law enforcement and beyond …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Good. Mandate that the NYPD use them first and see what happens.<\/p>\n

“… No measure could more obviously prevent firearms from falling into the wrong hands \u2014 of toddlers, of criminals, of madmen, of terrorists. But scared off by boycott threats from the National Rifle Association<\/a> and other gun cultists, the industry shelved smart-gun development long ago …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Untrue. People have been trying to make “smart guns” since at least the early 70s. Decades of failure should be an indication there is a flaw in the concept.<\/p>\n

“… In picking up where the gun industry fears to tread, Adams joins President Obama<\/a>, who in his January executive orders<\/a> on gun safety directed his departments of Defense, Homeland Security and Justice to also sponsor technology research. Brooklyn\u2019s borough president has already succeeded in rousing NRA fanatic-in-chief Wayne LaPierre from his deep, dark cave, to have a spokesperson insist: \u201cWe\u2019ve never been against the development of the technology. We\u2019ve just been against the mandated use of it.\u201d …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Awhile back NRA reviewed the Armatix iP1<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It’s crap.<\/p>\n

“…If that\u2019s really true, let\u2019s see the NRA match Adams\u2019 $1 million award.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It is not Eric’s money, it belongs to the taxpayer. If he really believes in this let him put up his own money to fund a startup.\u00a0 I’d suggest the same to the Daily News, but they’ve been losing money hand over fist<\/a> already.<\/p>\n
