The only way you're going to get rid of billions of guns is if you have a magic genie or a monkey paw.
If our country actually cared and was a force of good and peace, we would have a long-term plan for things like buyback as well as strict regulations and MAYBE in a hundred years we would be gun-free for the most part, but the guns are only half the problem.
The problem is the lack of community and the atomization of our feelings and perspectives. People don't shoot up schools when they feel loved, connected and unafraid of their future. When people have something to live for, they want to help each other see that future.
That's the rotten part, that's where our country is dying. We drank too deep of the well of "rugged individualism" and now everyone is wandering around like it's a video game and NPC's don't deserve second thought.
wait, how are they going to "test" this?
Recess.
Running from the gun-drones opening fire is good exercise for the kids, after all.
Gun culture.
Let's fight gun violence with...... robots with guns?????
Oh man, eome kids gonna carrying a band flute case and sniped. How are we this stupid? Mark my words, irobot is gonna kill an innocent kid
Of course the password to the school's drone control system was just "admin1234"
Using school to practice your combat drone tech and funnel more tax payer money into the hands of the military complex. Very cool. /s
It's on. Shooters will now respond with armed drones.
government to use air strikes to prevent drone powered school shootings
Shooters respond to to air strikes with IEDs.
This is so much better than passing common sense gun laws.
And cheaper! /s
"Let's test the new firmware in the district with the most minorities."
You know it will happen. Maybe they'll phrase it differently but the decision will be made.
I don't see this going wrong at all. Do you know how long a drone battery lasts? Do you trust AI to pick out the right kids to shoot?
Wtf timeline am I in?
The one where five white dudes who hoarded all the money control everything.
Ah AI only has trouble with minority skin colors so it's not really a problem. /s
Oh no, now the shooters have drones!
Stole it from the school.
Having attended school this hypothetical is entirely 100% plausible. More children will be killed by these drones then they end up protecting.
Hacked drones...
Now you can do a school shooting from the comfort of your own home!
And truancy!
Can't concentrate with all the humming and weird pop noises!
Campus Guardian Angel 🙄🙄🙄
With how they're also ramping up Christian crap in schools, I imagine them putting little wings and halos, and having kids pray for the drones.
Wait until the bullied nerd learns to hack that system and sends the armed drones to exterminate the jocks.
That could never happen. The manufacturer assured parents their proprietary software is unhackable.
