The issue is applying a new patch to an out of date version.
If this is not the definition of updating I don't know what is...
I think the AC means "applying a patch to a version older than it was meant to patch." Like those game patches that have to be applied in order.
But to me, mine are kept in a safe that is secured to the floor in my house
Wait a second. You oppose guns that require the user to be wearing something, because you might not have it on at the time when you have to use a gun to protect yourself in a rush. But at the same time, you store your guns in a safe, which presumably takes the same (if not more) time to open as putting on the device that enables a smart gun.
If you properly maintain your guns to keep them out of reach of unintended users, then you are not going to be able to use them instantly in a crisis situation. That is how it has always been. Smart guns don't change anything.
I think the point he is trying to get at is if he's out and about with his gun, this adds the possibility of "Oh, I forgot my . Now the bear shall eat me."
In other words, there's the crisis this won't influence (gun is stored) and the one it will (gun is on him).
The critical point in all of this is that Velvin Hogan's personal feelings were legally allowed to be part of the decision making process at that point. There is no misconduct.
Lying to the court is still misconduct, so whether or not his personal feelings were allowed at that point they shouldn't have reached that point.
With your bare hands?!?
