President Barack Obama released a proposal on Friday that will expedite the development of a type of “smart” gun technology that will utilize computer chips that can track the location and use of firearms in real-time.

Police officers will be the first to try out the technology, according to a report submitted to Obama by the Departments of Justice, Defense, and Homeland Security.

Obama tasked the agencies to come up with ideas on how to develop and implement “smart” gun technologies as a way to make guns safer. Besides chipping firearms, the proposal also calls for investments in traditional “smart” technology such as those that allow a gun to be fired only by its owner.

The proposal is part of Obama’s larger gun control executive actions, which he announced earlier this year. The action will increase certain types of background checks.

But the computer chip proposal is likely to cause concern among some gun rights supporters who fear the technology will eventually be used to monitor guns owned by private citizens.

“In recent years, another type of gun safety technology has emerged: real-time data collection involving the location and use of law enforcement firearms,” reads the government report submitted to Obama.

“The technology is relatively straightforward: a computer chip, embedded in a law enforcement firearm, that transmits information about its location and use. In its simplest form, the chip can provide real-time location data, making it easier for officers to recover a weapon if it has been lost or stolen.”

The report cites technology being developed by Beretta, an Italian gun manufacturer, and Yardarm Technologies, which is based in California.

Right, and Faraday bags are like unicorns, they don't exist ??? Idiots.
This will only make people less safe, as they assume that nothing can go wrong while;
Unicorns Faraday bags definitely exist.

How about some computer chip technology to track sociopaths?

Police officers will be the first to try out the technology

Just like the founders... a constitutional scholar this one.

Here come all the really great ideas, gotta leave appearing like a democrat, and showing everyone the clear difference between the "two" parties.
:toady:

I've seen this episode before.

Run a false flag, Fast and Furious, then enact more gun control.

Problem. Reaction. Solution.


And should be the last.

I dont even think it should be done for public servants.

Incrementalism.
