        Gun owners be open to the idea when such guns become standard issue in police departments around the country.

        Gun owners shouldn't accept an untested technology until police departments will entrust officer lives.

        OK but should that be the only criterion for deploying tech for curbing gun violence from non-owner guns?

        Again, my question... where do the inadvertent victims of non-owner gun violence factor in?

        If a solution undermines the fundamental right of self defense, it should be rejected. Make electronic guns better.

        Because during a home invasion it's not practical to have to "reboot" your weapon and apply the latest service pack.
