I just got done watching an episode of "Tales of the Gun" on The History Chanel. The subtle bias on this channel never ceases to amaze me.
First of all the episode is titled "automatic pistols" which of course none of the pistols showed were automatic they were all semi-automatic such as the 1911A1, P-38 etc.
We learned on the show how the pistols evolved into "rapid fire" "high capacity" "manstoppers" "favorite of FBIs most wanted criminals" and how "nonregistered" guns "fall into criminals hands"
They even had a freaking video of some felon capping a guy behind a 7/11 counter.
Never mind how many times a good Smith has been used by fathers, teachers, gas station owners, law abiding citizens in general to STOP VIOLENT CRIME.
Then at the end of the episode they went into a 10 minute diatribe about how Colt is producing "smart gun" technology. How this is supposed to be the new greatest thing in gun technology a biometric signal or an encoded transmitter device that would only enable one person to fire a gun.
One more thing to break just when your life depend on it.
What really scares me is that if and when Colt finishes developing this crap and the Feds pass new "smart gun" legislation. Guess who has a monopoly on the gun industry.
Also my guess is once the bio metric device is embedded, your gun will never be able to be passed down to your son through a will etc. without lots of $$ in tax transfer stamps, taxes in general.
Colt is a sellout, and the History channel is one more part of the left wing anti-gun machine that keeps rolling along over all of our rights. When is this going to end?
