I agree with this. Let the consumer decide....not the NRA.
So you can't, in simple American English, explain why you believe her selling a tech lock gun-- which has no bearing on what government does--is a bad idea?
surely you cant mean her having the right to sell a tech lock firearm is a bad idea...surely you dont mean that.
First, I'm sorry this woman is being harassed. A difference in opinion does not warrant abuse.How is it not?
Not imo, no, because that one avoided accident is matched or outweighed by the one time the gun fails to unlock when needed to defend against a rapist.If only one accident is ever prevented because a gun refused to fire because the owner was not handling it, is it not worth it?
NRA = lobbying for gun manufacturers.
When the firearm fails not if, every single person effected should sue that company into bankruptcy.If the technology fails, and the owner dies because the weapon wouldn't work, was it worth it?

Then someone snapped pictures of the address where she has a P.O. box and put those online, too. In a crude, cartoonish scrawl, this person drew an arrow to the blurred image of a woman passing through the photo frame. “Belinda?” the person wrote. “Is that you?”
Her offense? Trying to market and sell a new .22-caliber handgun that uses a radio frequency-enabled stopwatch to identify the authorized user so no one else can fire it.
Never mind the possibility of a short in the wiring, or a battery that fails to regulate and overheat. Heat + Ammunition = misfire.First, I'm sorry this woman is being harassed. A difference in opinion does not warrant abuse.
The gun unlocks every-time your arm is at your side, hand in your pocket, etc (the RFID watch being in proximity to the gun, as designed). Just my opinion but I only want the gun to unlock when I'm going to actually use it.
Also I don't like the idea of delicate electronics in something that makes a lot of shock. Electronics tend to brake when so treated.

Intimidation and bullying is why I don't care for gun enthusiasts very much. If they had a valid reason or argument they wouldn't need to use such tactics.
They can't survive on dues alone. Without consumers manufacturers would be pointless.
Is that a home depot special brush? Paint the globe with one quick swipe.

NRA membership is just a side show. The real money supporting the NRA comes from the gun manufacturers.
It's happens a lot more than you care to admit.
I admit I stopped liking them in mid 80's - 90's. They started to 'compromise' too much and I never rejoined again. I can see that they seem to cater more to the money makers.
Don't deny they are out there but more likely just young punks on the net that shows they are way too irresponsible for weapons. But you cannot punish the lot for a few fringe nuts.
I don't think they're young punks. I think they're grown adult men in their 50s and 60s with too much time on their hands.
The gun is not safe, you don't understand this issue, and it's been proven.If people thought like that there would never have been a moon landing.

Why do you keep your canon and "come and take it" icon yet continuously talk anti-2nd - Troll?

What could possibly go wrong with a tech lock gun? How about when the battery dies or the sensor is damaged/blocked - is it now a regular gun or does it turn into a very expensive hammer? One can dislike a new product without wanting them to be banned.
You think you own the 2nd amendment?
Yes. Me and the rest of my fellow countryfolk.
