Well, GPS has been used to kill people all over the world since it was
first launched by the military, so I don't see the big news there.

wrt "banned like they are trying to do for guns" I personally feel much
safer living in a country where licenses for weapons are only granted for
a limited number of hunters, and not to the average Joe Maniack, but
that's a whole different discussion..
