Will the NRA pay for more guns at schools

Taxes are going to go up anyway, so why not? At least we'll know that some of
that tax money is going to good use. :)

Will the NRA pay for more guns at schools

Assuming the appropriate hardware and software is in use, one individual can
remotely monitor 1,000 cameras.

With a little more R&D, that should reach 10,000 cameras, and maybe even
100,000 cameras. The big limitation is screen overlap, and the lack thereof.
(Each spot in the facility needs coverage by between five and ten cameras.)

The basic hardware is cots, with the end user doing some minor
customisation. The software is bedevilled with patents for such novelties as
'detecting a line', 'determine the difference in colour between two pixels', and

'detecting the difference between two, or more images'.

Will the NRA pay for more guns at schools

My thoughts on how to pay for and run this program:
Costs will be handled by a trust fund (similar to the highway trust fund) that is funded by:
a special excise tax on the manufacture or importation of firearms;
a special excise tax on the manufacture or importation of ammunition for the same;
a transfer tax on the transfer between persons of firearms or ammunition not newly manufactured.

This effort would be operated and staffed by the Department of Homeland Security. The Transportation Security Agency has particular expertise in this sort of operation and is proposed as the agency to implement this program.
