I can not think of a single reason a law abiding citizen would be against the use of such technology.
except that it would make existing firearms illegal to possess, you couldn't sell or trade them, and gov would not give you fair value for them.

if your concern is solving crimes, there are already many tools for doing that, including catching the criminal red handed.

would you also apply all these ideas to everyone with a gun, including police? they are no different from anyone else. have good and bad days, lose their guns, leave them sitting around so that 3 year olds can get to them.....
