Vantage Point: Inevitability Is Inevitable

Some things are inevitable. For those unpleasant inevitabilities, we have a choice: we can rage our way into a state of denial and stick our head in the sand, or we can “man up” and take on the challenge of figuring out how we’re gonna deal with the situation.My inevitable inevitability...

There was a another thread about this recently. Pretty much everybody agrees that smart guns are a stupid idea.

From the article:

My inevitable inevitability challenge these days is … smart guns.

James Bond used them. In The Living Daylights, Timothy Dalton used a signature rifle assembled from camera parts. Yeah, Dalton was a lousy Bond in one of the cheesier movies in the franchise, but in fairness, I blame the writers — they gave him garbage material. Anyway, with its palm print recognition, he could shoot the rifle, but the bad guys who tried to kill him with his own gun were stymied. In Skyfall, 00-cool-spy-guy used a “smart” Walther pistol.

I wonder if the author is clear on the concepts of "fiction," "fantasy" and "reality." James Bond is a fictional/fantasy character, and does not exist in the world of reality.

When I can legally install forward-firing machine guns in my car and then operate it on the public highways, get back to me about "smart guns," mmmm-kay?

We don't need smart guns just smarter people in general, let them figure a fix for that out.

As the writer points out, the folks in Palo Alto don’t pass out financial backing as favors. They are armed with intelligence which leads them beyond mere speculation, that change is coming and they want to profit from it.

No, nope, and nada.
