Guns for children?
Here’s why we don’t use the technology for preventing this.
A decade ago the U. S. state New Jersey passed a law, which requires a gun sold in the state to provide a technology which allows only its owner to use it, the so called ‘smart gun’.
As this technology wasn’t invented these days, the law required the attorney general to determine the availability of smart guns and issue a report every half a year to the state Legislature.
Although such a gun is now produced and available for sale by the German company Armatix, the attorney general failed to make a report.
Proponents of the new law recently filed a lawsuit against the New Jersey’s attorney general in order to force him to issue reports. They state, smart guns would prevent children from accidentally shooting with guns owned by their parents.
But when a gun store owner in Maryland wanted to sell those guns he received numerous death threats.
Opponents of smart guns say that the new law would hinder gun owners to protect their selves when an assaulter invades their homes. In addition they argue that the technology is unproven and therefore not proper to defend one’s life.
Therefore the pro-gun lobby organization NRA opposes the retail of smart guns. Due to this, the State Senator, who was actually for the law, is willing to work ion repealing it, if the NRA in return will not stand in the way of development and distribution of child-proof guns.
