President Obama's comparison of gun safety to seatbelts and airbags is scrutinized, specifically his push for "smart gun" technology. The discussion questions Obama's claim that a market for personalized firearms exists and was only suppressed by an NRA-led boycott of manufacturers like Colt. Technical limitations of biometric gun locks, such as fingerprint reliability, are contrasted with the president's optimistic projections.

The segment jokes about an "iGun" that would require pairing with an Apple Watch via Bluetooth to fire.
