I am pretty sure, technology like this is a little over either of you two's ability, for that mater mine also. But to call someone's idea dumb, is well, not only close minded , but also ignorant and short sighted. Technology is moving at an amazing rate and if there was smart weapons that could detect friendly forces in harms way that is a good thing. When you say that each person would not give up their control of their weapon, you are thinking in the past few decades, not into the future.
