This <a href="http://www.njleg.state.nj.us/opi/Reports_to_the_Legislature/attorney_general_personalized_handgun_retail_report_Nov_2014.pdf" rel="nofollow">prompted the state's attorney general</a> to say:<br /><br /><i>Situations may readily be envisioned in which an unauthorized individual gains access to the pistol in close enough proximity to the wristwatch component (by either maintaining possession of the pistol within 10 inches of the authorized user’s wrist on which he or she is wearing the watch, or by forcibly taking possession of the wristwatch), and therefore would be able to fire the weapon, despite the limiting technology. </i>Kurt '45superman' Hofmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14091930034162667742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-35533181708198763292014-12-04T08:35:11.771+01:002014-12-04T08:35:11.771+01:00Yeah, that's all nice, Kurt, but in the meanti...Yeah, that's all nice, Kurt, but in the meantime unfit bumbling gun owners like this one are adding to the problem.

Hopefully, she will get some more training (weapon retention training would seem especially indicated here), and be better prepared the next time she has to deal with such predatory filth.Kurt '45superman' Hofmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14091930034162667742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-16542691272554617102014-12-01T18:49:36.687+01:002014-12-01T18:49:36.687+01:00A perfect example of a gun being used against the ...A perfect example of a gun being used against the gun owner.

Love admitted to police that she knocked the woman to the floor and hit her while her companion took the money from a cash bag, according to an arrest report.<br />The woman's 5-year-old daughter was home, and the victim reportedly asked Love to stop hitting her in front of the child.<br />When the robbers let her up, police say the victim took a handgun from behind her back waistband and pointed it at them.
