THE WASHINGTON POST editorial board has a flair for always getting it wrong, and here's another example: New Jersey should begin enforcement of its smart gun mandate.

There are clearly places where personalized (smart) weapons are appropriate, and equally clearly places where they are not.

Feel-good, one-size-fits-all mandates are not an answer; they never have been (Prohibition, the Affordable Care Act, wind and solar power, ad nauseum) and never will be.

The NRA is correct to vigorously oppose the New Jersey law and sadly, Second Amendment advocates are probably correct to oppose the sale of such weapons until the mandate is completely and unambiguously repealed.
