Yo, welcome to Crypto 101. This is Matthew Aaron. And today, Crypto 101 wants to express

its most sincere condolences to the victims and the victims' families, Las Vegas and the United

States for the tragic event that happened the other day. These events get us down to our core.

No matter where you're from, events such as these are felt all over the world.

This is our humanity.

In light of this, we must continue to strive to not turn a blind eye with apathy to these often reoccurring situations,

but take action to help find solutions.

And in the United States, these solutions are more complex than most places.

My question is, why don't we have like I have on my iPhone, where I can locate my iPhone,

disable it, and erase the data if I need.

If it gets lost or stolen or used in a way that I don't like it, why don't we have this on guns?

In the United States, we have the Second Amendment, where it says a well-regulated militia,

being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms

shall not be infringed.

The Second Amendment and the idea of freedom and liberty in the United States is at the forefront

of trying to shape gun safety and gun restriction regulation.

Some of those concerns are third party control.

For example, if all of the regulations, for example, the fingerprint readers were on the firearm and made by a central party, say, Glock or Smith & Wesson, then Smith & Wesson or Glock would have control over that firearm and not the owner of the firearm.

That would be a very easy way for the government to gain control of all of

those firearms just by working with those said companies. When the other concerns is the government

could collect data of all of those firearms as well of all of the people that own those firearms.

And this goes against how people interpret the Second Amendment.
