Then people will implement it on a Apple iWatch, which is infinitely more attractive than the watch they provide. It is not clear that the gun would be more hackable if the software was open sourced. Initially it probably would be, but over time it would become more secure. Just like Linux over Windows.
That article is a big feelings shitfest... starts off with a pov story about some people that got shot. I'm just sure the author is going to go from that to some really well thought out answers... NOT!!
If those real stories and their appeal to emotion are a "shitfest", then so is this: "However... NO AMOUNT OF MASS MURDER PREVENTION IS WORTH DISARMING THE CITIZENRY AND MAKING THEM HELPLESS AGAINST EVIL, POWER-HUNGRY LEFTIST GOVERNMENT!!"
I will admit that Obama came across eloquently upset in this conference. He got some of his key points across well - whether you agree with him or not.
Here is what i am waiting for. Advanced drones with machine guns attached. Terrorist can fly them into a baseball or football field and open fire. Lets get big magazines. Like spray shooting dead fish in a barrel. Or, have the drone with gun shoot at a 777 full of people down. 500 people dead and cant even prosecute. Congratulations
Guns, including semi auto pistols and "assault" rifles, have been around forever. So why the increase in mass shootings? What other common elements are present in all these cases?
Obama is awfully selective in his concerns. He wants to expose us to jihadists. He is not the least concerned about hordes of illegal immigrants and bogus refugees bringing in previously unknown or eradicated diseases. He doesn't mind the wave of crime illegals have brought with drug gangs, etc. He has no interest in harsher penalties for violent felons. He doesn't even want to deport violent illegal immigrants. He excuses mob violence like the Baltimore race riots. But a shooting, provided it was by a white non-muslim, is just another thing altogether. Then we get the full compassion act, with the now-standard "demand" that we confiscate legally owned firearms. Oh, but he didn't say that? What do you thnk the result will be when they ban mags or semi autos? You think they are going to let you keep what you have? Dream on.
