if you knew could save one child's life by wearing a bracelet, would you?

That doesn't work, who would bet their life on something like that?
oops battery went dead, gun unusable.
Oops I smashed my watch getting in the car, gun won't work.
oops left that huge clunky watch on the nightstand, gun won't work
oops went swimming and forgot to take the watch off, gun won't work.

Seems to me any smart person would just have a gun that worked no matter what you did with your watch.

Schuylaar, this does not have a technological answer because that can fail.

If we're worried about children using the weapon, seek a mechanical system like they use on lighters and rx bottles.

by the way you worship your gun, i HIGHLY doubt you'd let the battery go dead..similar to your smart phone.

how the fuck do you smash your watch getting in the car? do you need lessons getting your car? didn't they cover that when you went for your drivers license?

by the way you worship your gun, i HIGHLY doubt you'd leave that baby on the nightstand..i'm thinking you love so much, you're having sex with it.

it's waterproof.

what else ya got?

:lol:

No not just a safety.

I'm talking about a mechanism that could be put on the gun when it isn't in use.

It would have to be quick and simple to remove for that emergency that may come one day.

So you have never smashed a watch by accidentally hitting it on something? Are you disabled? Oh wait, your a woman, and women aren't very strong, don't move fast, can't lift things, can't get jar lids off. I guess I was expecting you to view things as a strong man, not as a weakling woman.

How many of those guns have you purchased yourself?

There is a recent story of a girl who had lighter fluid or gasoline poured down her nose and throat and she was lit on fire.

I wonder if that poor little 19 year old girl would be alive today if she had been carrying a weapon...

No it isn't.
The boston Globe.com High-tech guns could revolutionize firearms industry
One of California’s largest firearm stores recently added a peculiar new gun to its shelves. It requires an accessory: a black waterproof watch.The watch’s primary purpose is not to provide accurate time, though it does. The watch makes the gun think. Electronic chips inside the gun and watch communicate with each other. If the watch is within close reach of the gun, a light on the grip turns green. Fire away. No watch means no green light. The gun becomes a paperweight. Read more

if i could give you the child's name that you would save, would you do it?

You realize you are quoting the Boston Globe? They don't make watches.

There are no watches that exist that are waterproof, in fact it is illegal to inscribe a watch with "Water Proof" writing on it, because no watch can be waterproof. Even a divers watch will fail at a certain depth.

Go look at a divers watch, does it say water proof? Go look at a Rolex Submariner, does it say Water proof?

Put the greatest watch ever made down to 500 Atm and it will pop like a zit.

There is no watch ever made that was waterproof.

This $10,000 watch will fail past 300m, because it isn't waterproof.


Your watch runs off a battery, which has to be replaced, which means it can be opened, which means it has seals that will fail over time and at certain pressures. So it can't possibly be water proof, as that would mean it would resist any amount of water, at any depth, forever.

Do you plan to kill a child if he doesnt get the gun watch?

That would realistically be the only way you could make the offer.
in addition to the child's name you save and their pic, they come and spend christmas with you and your family before their death in 2015..would you do it then?

This just underscores liberal thinking...

They create some illogical scenario and an equally illogical outcome that has nothing to do with reality. Then they continue to repeat it until they actually believe it.

Would the person or people who lit that girl on fire and burned her to death care about wearing a bracelet to save a kid?

When you convince them to do it, get back to me.

The handgun problem in this country is a real thing but it's more complicated then making it harder for law abiding citizens. The law abiders were never the problem. Now if you can get the people who are killing other people to follow gun laws, you'll probably get them to follow other laws like "don't kill people".

It's not an easy solution, but approaching it from adding to the other 600 some odd laws concerning guns is the wrong angle for sure. That should be obvious. If the laws were working, we could have stopped over 500 ago.

The odd thing is, long guns are not the problem, but those are what consistently get attacked. We base our laws on emotion "if you can save just one child" instead of logic. "How many did guns save? it's unquantifiable, but you can bet your ass it was more than one".

Don't know the answer, handguns ARE a problem, but a problem with criminals. Making new laws will make new criminals, I'm not sure that's a solution.
