Should smart guns be illegal?

Incorrect.
The people from whom the government wants to buy the guns..

 

You're being an a**e again. Do try to stop.
I have no idea how much old guns sell for, so I'm not the right person to calculate the scrappage value. Needless to say the scrappage has to be higher than the true value of the weapon or no one would take it up.

 

Well yes obviously. If you don't want to take up the scrappage scheme you don't have to.
Why are you being so aggressive?

 

Translation:
I am, again, punching holes in your premise, and you know you can do nothing about it.

 

If you say so.
Doesn't do much for the conversation though does it.

 

Thus, you agree - your statement that the government sets the value of the firearms was false.

 

Sure it does
- You present an unsound premise
- I demonstrate that premise to be unsound.
A beautiful conversation.

 

Ooh you are so clever.
Sigh.

 

Did you know your statement was false when you made it?

 

Do you actually enjoy this crap.

 

I understand you pretty well. I just don't think it's possible for a gun to know it's me

I think that's a bad move. Mobile phones can be beached without even touching them

 

You didn't answer the question.
You made false statement.
Did you or did you not know it was false when you made it?
The question speaks directly to your credibility.

 

I disagree. My front door knows me.

Not easily. And certainly harder than a gun with no protection.
I bet you don't have your mobile open so anyone can access it. I bet you use a pin or face recognition or finger print.

 

I didn't.
The government decides the scrappage offer its up to the individual if they accept it.
You think anyone (I mean anyone) falls you for crappage.

 

And thus, the individual, not the government, decides the value of the gun.
You agreed to this, and thus, you agreed that your statement that the government decides the value of the gun was false.
Did you or did you not know your statement was false when you made it?

 

Hog s**t.
The shop decides the price of their products not the customer. The customer can agree to the price or not buy.
The same is true for the scrappage scheme.
I write this for other readers to show your nature, as I am sure you know this already.

 

And thus, the customer decides the value of the gun.
We're already established this.
You agreed to this, and thus, you agreed that your statement that the government decides the value of the gun was false.
Did you or did you not know your statement was false when you made it?

 

Not in marketing, are you?

 

Very much so.

 

Sorry your wind up finished now.

 

The market sets pricing. You've already admitted that.

 

Indeed, but hardly the same as a scrappage scheme.

 

Why can't you tel us if you knew your statement was false when you made it?

 

It's -exactly- the same thing.
As the government is giving the gun owner the choice between whatever $ it offers and keeping the gun, the gun owner determines the value of his guns.
Period. Full stop.

 

I am hot wiring my 2000 model Chevy pickup (with anti theft electronics) several times a day. Ignition went bad and haven’t had time to try and replace it.

I have no idea what kind of devices are in the works for firearms. Do you have links to the technology you describe? I should educate myself on the technology before commenting further.
