37. What obstinence?

My only point is your use of hyperbole about wood framed cars, which were never built.

The technology for smart guns is not here yet. When it becomes viable, and is used by law enforcement agencies on a wide scale, then it will be viable.

I believe the safe, secure storage of firearms is a much more achievable goal than changing the technology of the guns themselves. There are more than 300 million guns in circulation, new gun technology is not going to change that.

My state has a safe storage law. Firearms owners who have minor children living in their home have to either disable the firearms, use a cable lock or trigger lock, or a safe. Ammunition must be store separately.
