Oakland Police Want to Arm Robots With Shotguns
Is Robo Cop Coming to your local police SWAT Team soon?

When SWAT teams were first created, the authorities marketed them solely for managing hostage situations, sniper activity, and civil unrest. Now militarized police are used routinely for drug raids, Iraq-War-door-kicking style. SWAT deployments have increased exponentially since the 1960s.

I wish we had a cry button and we could select more than one @Don McManus your comment was both funny and sad at the same time.
The military and most police units too. I am not hopeful.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
They could just go ahead and buy some remote control electric vehicles and make them "Hot " and electrocute some folks for crowd control
