They can grandfather existing guns, so no one loses the guns they have, but new guns must have a safety lock that uses biometrics. The biometrics can have up to 3 authorized users plus an override for testing/police usage. The override is a lengthy procedure, say as an example, engage the manual safety, pull the trigger twice, release the safety, expel a round, then the gun the gun is enabled for one live shot.
Point is not to say that would be it but that there are possible solutions, that we use in other parts of life and could be adapted to a gun safety process so that, without infringing on the right to bear arms, which is one of the most vital ones imo, you can prevent accidental harm. That would be a good thing.
Cars right now, use that type of override procedure for things like resetting electronic tire pressure gauges and check engine lights. Cell phones and baggage locks have override systems in place so that the government can use them with proper warrants.
Instead of saying no it won't happen, why not look for a way that your rights and enjoyment can continue, while addressing safety and danger concerns.

Tire pressures??????
Seriously????
I'm talking about protecting my family from an intruder and you compare it to tire pressures?
WTF?
It will be far too cumbersome and far too unreliable and far too expensive and
it will be a huge pain in the ass for the govt and everyone else.
The NRA will never let it happen.
Do you realize the impact it would have on the huge firearm industry the USA has?
Its ridiculous to try it across the board.
