GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY?

[Cutz]

But, my understanding is that the technology child safety features on guns would be built in, like with the fingerprint recognition function.

Honestly, I have no problem with the tech itself. These days I'm all about innovation and design. Requiring pressure on the top and bottom of a grip (to require an adult hand), fingerprint tech, inlaid safeties... they're all cool. It just seems somewhat redundant, unless you're mandating that all weapons have such features. People that aren't safe with guns won't buy those features. People that actually show precaution can keep kids safer much cheaper by simply storing it unloaded, in a locked case.

Now, if one wants to claim that those features should be federally required, then it's back to the old argument. Otherwise, I guess I'm just irritated by people that blame poor parenting (or grandparenting) on the "lack of safety devices". Keep the gun unloaded and your kid would be alive. Is it really that hard?
