if you are such a fancypants, maybe you can read what i typed? or the article?

By contrast, the radio frequency identification technology proposed by McNamara, implanted in everything from key cards to house pets, is essentially instantaneous and virtually fail-safe, according to RFID Journal founding editor Mark Roberti.

"These systems are very reliable," said Roberti, adding his car has never failed to start as a result of a fault in chips now standard in car keys.


you do have a car? that starts?

and it's more than 'will the cops use it'

the article is unbiased- it says the thing works, the gun makers won't comment, the guy has spoken to them, they are scared to be the first.

why could this be? they are a business, they are afraid to lose money by pissing off their customers (like you)

could you find any actual information about cops trying this guy's gun out for instance?

maybe there should be A LAW they makes them try them out. in a range. to do testing. because if it did work, great.

so what if you say "i know for a fact that it does not work on this day today"

it will work at some point in the future. could be two weeks from now. who are you to set the date?
