#3I'm waiting for a politician to pass legislation requiring us to have the telescreens from 1984.
We already have thought crimes, I mean red flag laws and no fly lists.
People need to stop giving up their liberty and privacy for perceived safety.
You're much more likely to be killed by an automobile than a mass shooting. This is the new flavor of scare tactic.

#4Next up, guns on the cameras, human in the loop is too slow so they wire the guns to the AI directly but then they realise that it would be better if the AI was mobile, after an extensive beta program.
Education Droid (ED), v209 (ED-209 for short) is deployed to all high schools nationwide.

Are gun laws a bug in the system, fixable albeit a hard bug to fix.
Or, as I suspect, a design flaw that is impossible to fix. So you have to patch around it.

My man! 3,424 people per Day are killed in car crashes. That is 1 million and 250 Thousand people every single year who die in wrecks. Here in America alone we lose over 100 people every single day--give or take a few.

Update: zoning technology could prevent guns from being used at schools.

The argument would probably be that putting failable electronics in the pipeline of saving your life from a violent person/animal is too risky.

Addressing specifically your two points:
-fingerprints: because if the system fails, you have no gun. Internal malfunction? Greasy finger(s)? Gloves? Dirt? Dust? People whose fingerprints are really hard to print?
- determjne how often/when they are taken out of the house: talking specifically about the USA, that is a gross over-reach of the government (local + federal) via registration. A central database with who has what gun at what time? I'm against it.
I hope I can inspire you to look-up some additional information. Responsible gun owners are not a problem. The FBI has statistics on "defensive gun use", reporting that it happens over 250,000 times per year. Compared to what number? 35-40,000 deaths per year involving guns? And of those, 20-30,000 are suicides.
Please look up hard-data. Trying to take away guns will not solve the issues society faces. Then why do it?
