"Smart Guns"?
Guns are neither smart, nor dumb.
They are inanimate objects.
They do the bidding of whoever holds them.
The only thing they do is expel a projectile
when the trigger is pulled.
That is neither "smart", or "dumb", it just "is"
The person pulling the trigger may be smart,
dumb, good, evil, clueless, but it's not the gun's fault for what happens.
Personal Accountability.
No lame excuses.
Like, I didn't know it was loaded
Or, I didn't mean for that to happen
Or, That didn't happen on TV
Or, Well, it just went off
Or, I didn't know the kids would find it
interesting when I left if loaded laying
on the kitchen table
Etc, etc, etc.
Personal Responsibility
Whatever happened to that concept?
I guess, it isn't PC
So, it has to be the gun's fault
The gun needs education
It needs to got to college
It needs to "get smart"
Damn, it's so obvious
Why didn't we think of that?
Lets all hold hands and sing kumbalaya or lets
do the macarana or whatever that lame PC
slogan is
No, I have a better idea.
Let's all bag work tomorrow and go to the range!
