6/19/2016: Smart Guns, The 28 Pages, Taking on the Eiger

from 60 Minutes Hosted by CBS News

Smart gun technology, which allows guns to fire only in the hands of their owners, is not new. And yet these guns are not mass produced or sold in the United States, in part because of fears they are a back door to greater gun control. Current and former members of Congress and some 9/11 Commissioners are urging the Obama White House to make public and declassify the top-secret section of a report that could show possible Saudi support for some of the 9/11 hijackers. J.T. Holmes flew, skied and then jumped off the iconic Swiss peak, pulling a parachute to break his 100-mph free fall.
