Okay I got an idea and I want to share it, it also contains politics but mostly about a concept I came up with and want to see if it has any flaws.
When people say
"Guns don't kill people, people do"
That's true, but guns facilitate killing, a guy with a fully automatic machine gun with several clips could just spray on a crowd with it and take out dozens in no time.
Now a man with a kitchen knife can kill people with it but how many more people do you think the man is going to kill before he is disarmed/shot by the police?
Probably around 0-5 depending on your skill with the knife.
With a machine gun probably 0-100+ depending on the gunman's skill and how many bullets they have.
So I'm not saying we should get rid of guns or anything, We just need to make it so people can't just walk into some elementary school with a fully automatic weapon or any other area with alot of people.
Now guns can cost hundreds of dollars, So what if we added something to all of them that only costs about $15+ more?
What I'm thinking about is a device that is used say for tracking your keys or something, these would connect to other devices in say a nearby school or theater, and the device would alarm you if you are going close to a no-gun zone(Stadium, consert, school theater), telling you to take the gun away to be permitted to go in that area. if they go in that area ignoring the alarm, it would contact the police and the building they are going into with the gun, so they can lock down the building waiting for the police to arrive
It could also make the gun disabled unable to fire.
It could also contact the police if the gun is fired showing the location of that gun, so say a man is being robbed and fires at the intruder, the police can arrive to help and arrest the intruder.
Now if you are wondering, what happens if the device is destroyed by the gun owner so the gun can't be disabled and the police won't know in time?
The Device can constantly send the location of the gun to the police station, and if it stops sending the location it will notify the police and the police can go to the last known location of it, and if its near a no-gun zone the police can notfiy those areas.
So, do you think this would work? why and why not?
Any ways to improve it?
If it doesn't work anyways to make it work?
