  1. To responsible gun owners, think of it this way, how do you "properly secure" a handgun so that your kid can't accidentally kill himself with it? Remove the ammo, keep it locked in a secure safe, perhaps with a trigger lock, in an inconvenient location? Ok, fair enough. But what if you need that gun? What if there's a home invader? How long would it take you to make that gun ready to fire, and would you have that time? Now imagine you did have a "smart" gun, one that could only be fired by you? How could you "properly secure" such a weapon? In a basic holster on the side of your nightstand or couch, fully loaded and ready to fire at a moment's notice. Why is that not seen as an advantage to owning one? It wouldn't even have to be your only gun, you could keep other guns locked away, but having this smart gun loaded and ready would be a significant tactical advantage when you need it most.
